Liquid-like materials could pave way for new thermoelectric devices
Although it is physically a solid, it exhibits liquid-like behaviors due to the way its copper atoms flow through the selenium's crystal lattice. "It's like a wet sponge," explains Jeff Snyder, a faculty associate in applied physics and materials science in the Division of Engineering and Applied Science at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) and a member of the research team. "If you have a sponge with very fine pores in it, it looks and acts like a solid. But inside, the water molecules are diffusing just as fast as they would if they were a regular liquid. That's how I imagine this material works. It has a solid framework of selenium atoms, but the copper atoms are diffusing around as fast as they would in a liquid."
The research, led by scientists from the Chinese Academy of Science's Shanghai Institute of Ceramics in collaboration with researchers from Brookhaven National Laboratory and the University of Michigan, as well as from Caltech, is described in a paper recently published in the journal Nature Materials. A good thermoelectric material must be good at conducting electricity but bad at conducting heat. If it were good at conducting heat, the heat from the hot end would move to the cool end so fast that the whole material would rapidly reach the same temperature. When that happens, the electrons stop flowing.
One way to improve thermoelectric efficiency, then, is to decrease a material's ability to conduct heat. To that end, researchers have been developing thermoelectric materials with a mix of crystalline and amorphous properties, Snyder says. A crystalline atomic structure allows electrons to flow easily, while an amorphous material, such as glass, has a more irregular atomic structure that hinders heat-carrying vibrations from traveling.

Hello woodworkers. I live in a 1940's colonial which has one back bedroom with slanted ceilings. I wish to ask for your suggestions on a simple but sturdy solution to replacing the old sliding doors to the closet space under the eaves.
Below are pictures of two of the doors needing replacement. The doors in place are solid 3/4" plywood and heavy! They slide wood-on-wood along a runner in the bottom, which in the second picture, I pried off in the back. The doors are not all equal in size but 3 out of 4 are ~46 1/2" H x 32" W. The 4th door is 46 1/2" H x 31" W. A handyman carpenter will replace these doors, either using the plywood and cutting it down or using alternative, less heavy wood/other. We prefer two doors on strong side hinges meeting in middle with small knobs. He is suggesting using same wood and one door but we don't think that is possible due to weight of wood, strain on hinges, and needed room to swing door open. Another idea would be pre-fabricated bifold but there is a size difference. Would you offer your insight here? To keep labor down, allow for proper swing out, and make it sturdy to stand test of time on the hinges, what do you suggest? We do have a large lumber supply company near by. Thank you for your recommendations. |
Follow-Up Postings:
I would keep the sliding doors, but install a sliding door hardware kit, whereby the doors would slide on rollers on a metal track, rather on the wood. |

- Posted by sombreuil_mongrel (My Page) on Sat, Nov 17, 12 at 11:38
I believe that the original sliding design was done with keeping the air movement to a minimum. Actually that's an important consideration. A bifold arrangement is going to leak air all around and down the middle. Just sayin'. Casey |
- Posted by millworkman (email@example.com) on Sat, Nov 17, 12 at 16:57
basically I was suggesting cutting down std solid core doors, reblocking and hanging in jambs 4 sides with weatherstrip stop as double doors |
- Posted by SparklingWater (My Page) on Sat, Nov 17, 12 at 18:46
Thanks for all of your suggestions. I agree about the "air" consideration and agree bi-fold doors won't work. Some great ideas where I was lacking. I appreciate your responses very much so now on to the actual project. :) |

A Cardiff University research collaboration is working to recycle precious metals from road dusts and vehicle exhausts to create greener energy.
The innovative research by scientists from the School of Earth, Ocean and Planetary Sciences working with the University of Birmingham is to be featured at the Royal Society Summer Science Exhibition(2-5 July).
Catalytic converters which keep exhaust pollutants from vehicles down to an acceptable level all use platinum, however over the years the platinum is slowly lost through exhaust pipes. Dr Hazel Prichard, School of Earth Ocean and Planetary Sciences estimates that many kilogrammes of platinum is being sprayed on to streets and roads every year.
Dr Prichard said: "Platinum is a vital component not only of catalytic converters but also of fuel cells. Fuel cells are an important new source of clean energy. Platinum is a precious metal and resources are scarce and expensive. Our research is looking at ways of recycling platinum and other precious metals."
Dr Prichard is working with her team to find locations where platinum is concentrated enough to recover in order to develop cost-effective and sustainable ways to re-use this finite resource. One prime target is the waste containers in road-sweepers.
The research collaboration is also exploring how food wastes, and 'friendly' bacteria can be used to create greener energy. Their goal is to see these techniques being applied to produce clean fuel cells to create reliable, greener energy whilst minimising waste.

IMMOKALEE, Fla. — Though heavy rains disrupted late summer plantings, growers don't expect the disruptions to significantly affect the starts of most Florida fall vegetables.
While bell peppers, green beans and tomatoes should begin on time, the interruptions will push back the beginning of sweet corn harvesting closer to Thanksgiving, according to grower-shippers.
Doug OhlemeierJim Monteith, sales manager for Myakka City, Fla.-based Utopia Packing LLC, inspects some early plantings of bell peppers in early October. Though heavy rains disrupted early plantings, grower-shippers say they expect most deals to begin on-time in mid- to late October and in November. Florida cucumbers should start on time, around early November.
Because of excessive August and September heat that matured Georgia's crop earlier than normal, Georgia volume could be short until Florida begins, said Adam Lytch, operations manager for Raleigh, N.C.-based L&M Cos. Inc.
"Georgia is on the downhill side of our cucumber production," Lytch said in mid-October. "During the last two weeks of October, cucumbers will become so light and be pretty tight. We will have cucumbers, but volume won't be nearly what we're used to."
Lytch characterized cucumber markets as extremely high. In mid-October, quoted $20 for 1 1/9 bushel cartons of waxed supers from south Georgia.
In central Florida, Myakka City-based Utopia Packing LLC, a division of Utopia Farms, plans to begin harvesting bell peppers by Oct. 20, right on time, said Jim Monteith, sales manager.
Monteith said Utopia expects to start with small volume during the first week but enter peak volume in early November.
"The quality looks really good," he said in early October. "The bells have been progressing very nicely."
Though he couldn't point to any concrete numbers, Monteith said he's hearing central Florida growers planted fewer acres.
In early October, Monteith said Georgia had just started its harvesting and quoted 1 1/9 bushel cartons of jumbos from south Georgia selling for $14-16.
Georgia typically begins production in late September and early October.
In early October, Georgia was harvesting very light volume of corn.
Jon Browder, sales manager for Pioneer Growers Co-op, Belle Glade, said rains disrupted several weeks of planting and sent prices higher.
In mid-October, he quoted $12-15 for wirebound crates of 4-4 1/2 dozen yellow, white and bicolor corn from south Georgia.
Browder said he expects Georgia harvesting to end a week before Thanksgiving, just as Florida was planning to start.
Buyers should expect a normal transition to southern Florida, he said.
"We're expecting a smooth transition," Browder said in mid-October. "It should be pretty seamless if we don't get any more rain on it. We've finished planting, but the fall and winter are very light volume times."

Never ever ever thought I'd say this, but here's my "reveal". Photos are taken with my cell phone since camera died.
We started here about 3 years ago: Start of demo: To this starting with the entry into our little 2 bedroom home:
dining area:
kitchen from dining area:
bakers table/frig area:
Beginning of sink run:
Cooktop/backsplash/hood area from down by ovens:
window/buffet/prep area:
incomplete oven area:
Long shot from behind by the ovens:
Lots of prep here:
some of my favorite veining:
We sit here to eat every meal... dirty dishes right into the sink!
Tried to get a shot of the 3 giant windows in the sunroom that the kitchen overlooks:
another long shot:
It may be "uncooth" to say, but I love so much about my kitchen. I have not one regret or an "I wish I would have." We still have filler, end panels, a few doors but we are very close. The function of the space is amazing and I have rhome and other GW'rs to thank IMMENSELY for that. My youngest just came down to visit today and was taken about by how "beautiful" he thought it was. The space is kinda "zen like". Very informal, very earthy, very functional, very very me. So thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart for the patience, help, support, and advice I've received over the years. We are so completely happy and at peace here. It's a blessing... and I am forever grateful.

It's not uncouth at all. In fact, I think you ***should** feel that way when done. And, what's not to love about the kitchen? It's fab! I love seeing all the different views. I couldn't put it quite all together with the other pics you've been sharing. Hurray for the 80%!! |
I'm not quite sure where to begin because it's all so beautiful and functional and quiet. The bakers table - so pretty and ties in with the BS, the BS itself is so different and adds glamour, and then there is the sink and soapstone which are so cool together and set off the hood. My favourite part is the upper cabinets on either side of the window. (Yes, I played favourites and I hope you don;t mind). |

Oh...remodel, I am sooo happy for you and your remodel. I have followed it from the beginning though took a year or so off of KF and it is such a joy to see a finished product. I remember all of the reiterations of the layout, you getting your baking table and watching the refinishing process, the cabinet selections, etc. I know to you this probably seems like it took forever, but it has been a flash in the grand scheme of things. What an amazing space you have created for your family. I love it and congratulations. |
- Posted by remodelfla (My Page) on Tue, Jun 21, 11 at 16:38
I'm glad the views helped... it is an unconventional layout but functions like a dream. One crazy thing I got so excited about yesterday when DH finished installing the hardware was how the width of the handles mimic the width of the aluminum framing around the glass uppers. That was unplanned but for some strange reason made me feel like the entire thing tied together. And considering how I did this thing piecemeal over 3 years it's a HUGE relief to see that it worked! |
It is beautiful!!!! I love the HOOD..actually that is the most gorgeous hood I have ever seen!!! IMO it is just the right size...not too big or small. I'm in love with the soft blue backsplash and it goes so nicely with all that stainless and your light cabinets. Are those frameless...bet you can cram lots of stuff in there. |
That is a gorgeous end result, congratulations, you're rightly proud about it! |
What a joy that kitchen is! It looks beautiful and so original. You must feel like a proud Mama! Congrats!!! And enjoy! |

I could see that it was going to be elegant, but I had never seen the "before," so I did not realize how profoundly the space, as well as the finishes, would be transformed. I could never get the Zen of motorcycle maintenance, but the Zen of baking...now that resonates. Beautiful. |

OH...remodelfla! It's fabulous! Really. I was lost often with your complicated layout posts (not that I horned in on those). Now I SEE. You had great vision. And determination. All this time! Wow. Totally worth it. The Bakers Table looks PERFECT there. I know I'm gushing all over the place (and this isn't me, I usually leave that for others ;), but I've been here the whole 3 years. And read most of the posts. This is SO cool to finally see it all come together. :) |

I especially love the baker's table--it's fabulous and I love the color!!!! Gush away--you did a great job! How do you like the flush sink? I have it too and I like the look a lot. Worried a bit that crumbs might get stuck in the crack but 8 months later, I have had no real problem with it. The hardware you picked is perfect!!! |
Hi remodelfla... It's simply beautiful. It is such a refreshing space and very unique. I think EVERYTHING you chose is so perfect. I love how your youngest remarked that it is "so you". I've enjoyed all your updates, but I don't remember seeing the before pictures. That is really a transformation, especially thinking of you cooking in that space! Congratulations. It is wonderful you love your kitchen so much. :) |

The cabs are framless... IKEA boxes to be exact. We got the fronts from Scherrs. I love/adore my sink and the way it's installed. It is so so so easy to clean up. No issue at all with crumbs or junk. We did start with a mess of a space and it took a ton of convincing each time I wanted DH to take out a wall. When he finally did a piece of one wall, he called me at work to say,"you won't believe how much it opens the space up". That helped me in convincing him more walls needed to come atumblin' done. That involved moving the circuit box, hot water heater, washer/dryer and all the electrical/plumbing issues that come along with that. Those things we had done by professionals. DH will not mess with electrical. |
Beautiful so far! I am in love with your baker's table. And your stone. And, well, all of it. Great job! You should be very proud. |

Your kitchen reveal is one of the reasons why I continue to hang out in the kitchen forum. Love seeing how all the planning and some of the surprise adjustments(like the soapstone on your baker's table) have come together to create such a terrific space that is uniquely yours. Love that baker's table, and your monsoon wave counters make me swoon every time I see them. Just gorgeous! |
Killer kitchen, girl. |
Beautiful kitchen remodelfla! Worth the wait. I play favourites too and I still just love that Baker's Table. Congratulations. |
It is beautiful and looks so functional. I am glad you love it so much. |
Can you share the color on the baker's table (gorgeous) and your tiles? Love what you've done. Hardly looks like the same place. |
- Posted by remodelfla (My Page) on Tue, Jun 21, 11 at 18:34
It's fun, albiet a bit embarrassing that old timers remember my ridiculous iterations, discovery of materials that I hoarded for over 2 years, craigslist finds, and whatnot. And to have everyone appreciate the bakers table which was such a major disaster when I found it... very gratifying. Thank you for your compliments!! |
As I read your post, I could feel the love. It gave me the goosies! I too, really think what you have done is fantastic. I love the calm feeling, that is something I went for in my own remodel. All the hard work and through research shows. The fact that it all works for you is all that matters. But.........I also really love it all!!!!!!! Nancy |

The handles do match the aluminum frames...as if you'd planned it all along :) Okay, the baking table is my very favorite part and could you possibly take a few more pictures? Are those bins, for flour/sugar and where did you find it? Did you make it yourself? I think that is just wonderful and I'd love to get more info, if you don't mind. I'm so glad the kitchen reflects you and what you love. You and DH must be very proud! |
Wowza! That is just perfect - i think you may have created the ever-sought-after timeless kitchen! Love that hood- yep that is definitely my favorite thing. I think the thing that really works is you created a timeless kitchen that still reflects your area. Nice! |

I love the palette and the beautiful soapstone, really have appreciated your contributions to this forum during our own renovation, so glad that you are as thrilled as you should be -- the tiles and stone remind me of Florida! Lynn |
Oh E, it's really beautiful. It came together perfectly. Love the counters and backsplash. I don't think I'd ever seen the "before" kitchen. What a huge improvement. I know you'll enjoy it for years to come. I have to say one of my favorites is the bakers table. I think I showed up on GW about the time you were painting it! What a find and a great vision you had. Do you have a close up of the windowsill? My daughter is putting a marble one in her kitchen so I'd love to show her yours. Also, what color is your dining area? It looks a bit turquoisey, is it IRL. Again - LOVE it all. Priscilla |

Beautiful! That baking table is so pretty it hurts. |
Your kitchen is beautiful! Congratulations! |
Congrats, remodelfla -- your kitchen is gorgeous, and I can completely feel the "zen" right through my laptop screen! I am so happy for you! Enjoy! |
Your kitchen takes my breath away! It's gorgeous! I'm even more impressed now that I've seen the before pics. I started coming to KF about 2 years ago and missed that part of your process. You deserve to strut. Ya done good. ;-) |

Just WOW... you guys are awesome. OK... to answer some questions. LL and amela: I found the bakers table on craigslist. sorry to bore those who have heard this before. I bought it for $250 off an older couple who brought it to Florida from Michigan. It had been in their grandfathers for as long as they remember back to when they were little. They put me on the phone with their brother still in MIchigan, so I could describe how I planned on restoring/use it before they would sell it to me. Those are the orginal possum belly drawers. I stripped and sanded that table for months. Metal sanded the drawers and banged out dents with a mallet. I tried staining it, but since it was made from so many different types of woods (I think back then they made things with whatever wood they had available) it looked crummy. I tried milk paint, F&B flat oil, but couldn't achieve a color I wanted. I knew I wanted a flat oil and SW had a color close to what I thought I wanted. THey dont' sell flat oil anymore, but loe and behold, the kid found a can way in the back for me. He mixed it Halcyon Green. They didnt' charge me since they didnt' have a code for it and said it was so old they probably shouldn't sell it. I went back three times to have them tweak the color (add a bit of black, more white, now a little blue). So... I can't really say what the color is, custom mixed I guess. Here's what it looked like when I bought it: Here's the window sill for you prill:
The dining room color is SW color Raindance made up at either 50% or 25% (can't remember) by BM (I used Aura Matte) |

It is beautiful! Thanks for posting. I've spent quite a few evenings wondering if I missed your kitchen reveal altogether. Great space and fabulous transformation! Also, I'm particularly interested in seeing the translucent graining on your fronts -- so when you get a chance, please post some pictures. Thanks again -- and congrats! |

Remodelfla, your kitchen is beautiful! I especially love your gorgeous veined soapstone, and that windowsill is delicious. I will definitely be bookmarking it to show my GC when my kitchen work starts! The story behind that baking stand is precious. You definitely have a kitchen with personality - makes me want to drop by and have a cup of tea while admiring the quiet grace all around. Great job! |

Total Labor of Love. This has been one of those remodels here that is like a great novel. The reader doesn't want it to end, it has been so enjoyable taking this trip with you. May you enjoy many many many years in that home enjoying that fantastic kitchen. Congratulations |
The Monsoon Wave soapstone is spectacular! I thought so the first time you posted it, when it was installed by Joshua in February. Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy. You have a gorgeous, functional kitchen! |
- Posted by remodelfla (My Page) on Tue, Jun 21, 11 at 20:25
Thank you all so much again. Yanno bee, you're right. I'm feeling all sorts of nostalgic. This remodel process has been somewhat of a parable for my life these past three years. Ups and downs not only with the work but relationships. Some serious issues with my youngest son that convulsed me to a point of not functioning. Now all is well... my boys, his boys, us, our lives. I'm guessing there was a divine plan that caused this to take so long. And when it the time was right; the perfect renter for my home literally showed up on my doorstep without me even being ready or trying. We finished enough to move permanently in here and permanently out of my home, the school year ended and peace was abound! I know I am so ridiculously corny; afterall it's only a kitchen; but it's my nature. However, sometimes; I'm totally overwhelmed by this little place it borders on emotional. |
It's gorgeous! I LOVE your baker's table. No, LOVE doesn't even come close. I adore it. Love the colors and the airiness of it all. Beautiful. and YAAAAAY! to (almost) finished kitchens. |
Love it!!! |
Congratulations- great space... have I missed the info about your backsplash? |
- Posted by remodelfla (My Page) on Tue, Jun 21, 11 at 21:00
OH efs... sorry if I forgot. It's 4x12 frosted glass (frosted spa green) from the glasstilestore.com. It ran around $15 a sq. ft. |
AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!! I love everything about it (of course, my favorite element is that it's in Florida) but the soapstone and bakers table steal the show. I know how hard you worked to pull this together and how hard your DH worked to make it happen but boy was it worth it. Great job, Elyse! |
Wow. Just wow. I'm in complete and utter awe that you could transform the bakers table you received into the drop-dead gorgeous table it's become. The frog has turned into a handsome prince for sure!! I'm so impressed, and not a just a little jealous, of the talent you and others on the board show. Not just for projects of the baker-table-restoration kind, but also of the whole vision to pull together all of the materials that, once combined, create just the perfect space. And you seem to do it so effortlessly. Truly amazing. I love everything about your new kitchen. It says summer, and florida, and fun-loving, and open to adventure, and ready to entertain, and so much more ... and all of it in a warm, welcoming, yet elegant and sophisticated way. Lovely!! |
WOW-you have an amazing sense of style! You can design my kitchen any time! |

Absolutely wonderful remodelfla. Not only is your kitchen beautiful, but it radiates joy! |
it's beyond gorgeous... and then when you look at the before, it becomes even more breathtaking. great job! |
- Posted by mythreesonsnc (My Page) on Tue, Jun 21, 11 at 22:12
Lots to love... but I think I agree, you really made the baker's table an amazing "wow" factor in your space. I love the hardware, and the countertops as well. The entire space exudes such a nice feeling... and I love the dishes right into the sink idea. That is very cool! Congrats on your kitchen! Now, what are you baking? |
- Posted by remodelfla (My Page) on Tue, Jun 21, 11 at 22:19
HA! "It says summer, and florida, and fun-loving, and open to adventure, and ready to entertain"... that is TOTALLY me! Maybe kitchens are like self portraits. Once again, thanks all for your kind words and warm thoughts. So appreciated!!!!! |
You had a vision all along, and it really came together nicely. Although I wasn't always on board with the viewpoints, I really respect how much you respected your dh's opinions in the kitchen placement and other issues. He got what he wanted, or preserved what was important to him, and you still got the great kitchen you wanted. I love the wall colors! The whole thing is so peaceful and lovely...and just perfect for the poolside Florida bungalow for 2. |
It is beautiful indeed. That baker's table is wonderful-I remember the "before" picture of that. Enjoy all your hard work-I know you will. |
Oh Oh OH! I can feel the love for your kitchen radiating from your post--and it is wonderful! I have been watching you move through this process for quite awhile and felt a kindred spirit, as we also have IKEA boxes with custom doors. I was pretty sure that I would be finished with mine before you finished yours, because you were still working on layouts and then that fantastic baker's table; I was all set to order my door and drawer fronts, and I was cooking with gas, so-to-speak. I figured I'd have to check back on your kitchen because I definitely wanted to see the finale. Blah Blah Blah-dy blah. You get the big fat gold star, and I get the *pfffft*. :^D So BIG CONGRATS to you and your AMAZING new kitchen! I ADORE that baker's table, my knees knock over that ROCK, and dang it, girl, if that hood isn't the cat's pajamas! OH, and that GLASS TILE?? RAWR! It's totally FAB and doesn't even look like the same place! You have certainly created a space that is YOU! So strut, shout, preen, and post more PICS! I am so very happy for you! Oh, and I, too, am curious as to what are in those bins! |
Wow, I really admire your sense of style and beautiful choices, if this kitchen is "you", you are amazing, lovely and gracious! Congratulations on all your hard work! I can't imagine three years of of kitchen decisions!! Enjoy! |
- Posted by remodelfla (My Page) on Tue, Jun 21, 11 at 22:42
Too funny!... one bin hold baking stuff (baking powder/soda, yeast, bags of nuts, chips, cornmeal...etc). It's a mess now cause I have to have DH make me a false bottom so it gives me a flat surface. The other bin holds attachments for by mixer, cake decorating stuff, baking utensils. In the top drawers I have spices in one, whisks/measuring cups/spoons/etc in the middle one, and the end one holds my wraps/ziplocs. The bottom square drawer holds all my bowls. It works out great! DH keeps buggin' me to wax the soapstone on the table which is a different type then the perimeter. I won't do it. To me, the more worn it gets, the more I love it. I never knew I was a patina gal. And to acknowledge once more... this kitchen would not have been possible without rhome's amazing talent. |
LOVE that baker's table! Gorgeous, gorgeous kitchen. |
You've done a fantastic job. I really love the feel of the kitchen and can easily dream of cooking in that kitchen. As I've said before, I love the baker's table! And the the tiles look great. Woo hoo! |
Congratulations! Sounds like everything has come together perfectly. The kitchen looks wonderful and like everyone else, I just love the bakers table. Enjoy! |
- Posted by babushka_cat (My Page) on Tue, Jun 21, 11 at 23:59
beautiful! my favorite part is the bakers table. that soapstone is stunning - the veins are amazing!!! congratulations! |
Elyse, that's one beautifully calm locale. I think it's because all the colors are in the same warm blue family -- I didn't know you could have a warm blue! But it's this misty haze blue-black teal? Just beautiful, all of it. Harmonious, internally consistent... I think these are the ingredients of calm. I wonder if the booze in the demo scene set the stage for further tranquility? :-) |
Wow, that is a beautiful kitchen. The highest complement that can be made by me (another small house owner) is given with great enthusiasm: That does NOT look like a small house kitchen!! It's just lovely, and those big windows with a view to the lounging yard and sun are wonderful. Congratulations and well done! |
One of the nicest kitchens I've seen. I adore that veiny area of the soapstone too. Wow, wow, wow is all I can say. Enjoy cooking there. Raro |
I've been watching your kitchen from the planning stages, from what, about 100 layout variations. I remember when you got the bakers table (very very cool). It's been so interesting to watch come together.There were a few choices that I puzzled about as you made them. Now that I see it all together, it's AMAZING. Some of the choices were so bold, yet the results are so zen. Enjoy your kitchen. It's wonderful. |
- Posted by hermajesty (My Page) on Wed, Jun 22, 11 at 6:49
Standing ovation Remodelfla!! You've gotta be so thrilled with the results of your hard work. That kitchen ROCKS! You didn't have much counter space in your old kitchen so I imagine you sprawl out and lounge on all your new workspace huh, LOL. The look and feel of your kitchen is chic and homey at the same time. My favorite is also your bakers table and that yummy backsplash! Kudos to you and the mister. You hit a grand slam! |
- Posted by remodelfla (My Page) on Wed, Jun 22, 11 at 7:03
Thank you all! I wondered about how a few of my choices would look too as I bought most things way ahead of time either because I found them on craigslist/ebay or because as with the lighting and plumbing; I ordered for the entire house at once getting substantial bulk discounts. All my master bath stuff is sitting in the spare bedroom till we accumulate enough cash to "git 'er dun". I was a bit concerned with the chandy and bar stools but it worked out fine. Those poor barstools sat covered for about 2 years! All your comments are very heartwarming... :-) |
- Posted by holligator (My Page) on Wed, Jun 22, 11 at 7:09
Well, I've oohed and aahed every time you've finished something, because you've made such awesome choices along the way, but to see it all come together so fabulously takes me to a whole new level of oohs and aahs! You have done what we all strive to do with our remodels. That is, you've created a space that is beautiful, functional, and a pleasure to just be in. Congratulations!! |

I finished my kitchen over 6 years ago and I still lurk here constantly...your kitchen is one I couldn't wait to see the final photos of.

The kitchen is fantastic, the whole home is beautiful, and I'm so happy for you and your family. It really came out spectacular, enjoy it!!!! |

Soooo wonderful! I love the combination of your lovely oak with the aluminum/glass cabs--it's so unexpected! And I have to join the list of admirerers of your BSW, baker's table, hood, and sink. I love it all! I'm so delighted that you're obviously so in love with your kitchen. I only hope (and pray) that you'll still hang around GW KF, at least occasionally! Your kitchen is so relaxed and inviting, I'm sure you're going to enjoy throwing some great parties and BBQs. Enjoy! |
Rhome said almost exactly what I was thinking as I scrolled down, so can I ditto her again? ;-) And because of all your finds and efforts to transform things like your baking table, it is completely and uniquely yours, which just makes it that much better. |
- Posted by lezli_2010 (My Page) on Wed, Jun 22, 11 at 19:58

I love this kitchen! From now on, whenever anyone asks how you can create an eclectic, contemporary, family space that literally sings with pride in itself, I'm gonna point them to your kitchen! Who would have ever thought to put that to-die-for baker's table together with that drool worthy hood? Or those fab chairs with those lovely cabs? And, yet it all works together so very darn well because you thought of it and put it in motion! What with the items you've collected over the years of planning for this remodel, the calming palette, and the cool mix of textures, I get that this is YOUR kitchen -- signed, sealed and delivered with a whole lot of bravas, hugs and kisses. Well deserved, indeed. Congratulations! |

DH has been reading through the thoughtful posts and said, "those are very heartfelt comments; it's wonderful". It has been so much fun sharing this with all of you because I know a number of you have followed with my journey as I have followed with many of yours. I remember posting once that I felt I would never get to post a finished kitchen thread. OK... I still need my toe kicks on, side panels, yada yada... but you all know what I mean. DH also just commented that I have taken cooking to a new level. He prefaced with, "you have always been a great cook but the food you produce in this kithen ..." Friday we are having our first big party. DH and the band boys (old timers will remember me posting about band nights at my other house)and we will have somewhere between 80 - 100 people. I'm always bringing food/treats to family and friends so it will be fun for them to see where it's coming from and what I've been babbling on about for 3 years. Both my boys were suppose have come down from NY but only my youngest could make it. The big guy is moving from LI to Astoria and has much packing to do. The kid is as excited as I am about my new home. So wish me luck and pray for good weather cause this 1200 sq. ft. house can't hold everyone inside! Again, many heartfelt thanks to all of you for your kindness, warm comments, and support. It's as if you guys actually know me and get me. Elyse |
WOW WOW WOW!! I am new to this forum, just starting my remodel, and inspired! And I have QUESTIONS!!!! Are you happy with the IKEA cabs? Do they feel sturdy? Did you have to make alterations to them to make it work? What toekick did you use? They look great sort of floating off the floor. Any worry about the weight of the soapstone? Nice to see your fridge hanging out solo, not built in or camouflaged, and looking good. My contractor is really worried about using IKEA. And I'm worried it will make it cost a ton if I don't assemble them and he does. Wish I had followed your whole process. Clearly you and your family are incredibly capable and have vision! I have to hire someone to do the work for me :) |
E, I don't post much anymore, but I have to say your kitchen is fabulous. You never lost sight of your vision. I am thrilled for you that it turned out as beautiful as it is functional. Enjoy!! J |
- Posted by gsciencechick (My Page) on Wed, Jun 22, 11 at 21:43
I agree, the kitchen looks huge for the space. Love the hood, the soapstone, BS, and I'm quite envious of your "ease of cleanup" from the counter to the sink. The baker's table is just amazing. Our LR walls are Halcyon Green, and it's a great color. Bravo, bravo! |
Wow! What a transformation! I especially love your tropical flair. Enjoy every minute in your new kitchen! |
- Posted by remodelfla (My Page) on Wed, Jun 22, 11 at 21:54
J... so good to see you here and thank you... I know you know how much this means to me. BalTra... welcome! And to answer your questions. I could not be more delighted with IKEA. DH, who is very very handy; was amazed at the engineering of the cabinets. We combined two kitchens worth of stuff (of course tons of purging) and I can't tell you how delighted I am at how much these cabs hold and how utility they are. I was going to get an expensive contraption for my corner susan but just decided to go with what's there for now. Well... I'm glad I didnt' bother to spend the money. I have all my small appliances in there, and there's ALOT; and it hold everything beautifully. My soapstone is as sturdy on there as if I had custom built cabinets. We made modifications to the sink cab for the apron front sink. He also made some modifications to the cooktop so I can use the first drawer directly under the cooktop. He rabbitted(?) together two small fronts on the unit under the window so I could use it as a single drawer. I have stainless steel toe kicks, but need to get more and get them on. They are super easy to assemble. I even did some of the drawers. The hard part is installing them so everything is perfectly level. The feet help with that since they are adjustable. DH took it a step further by gluing and nailing backs on. Use IKEAfans as a resource and of course this forum. There are many people who have assembled and installed IKEA. Don't be afraid to use IKEA, if the sizes work for you, they are great. I hope you enjoy your process as much as I have enjoyed mine. |
The transformation from your old kitchen to this is just incredible. You have terrific vision. And that baker's table is stunning, I don't think I'd have seen the potential in its original state. |
Congrats on the (near) completion of a beautiful functional space! Count me in with the admirers of your baking table and your soapstone. I would eat at that overhang too, so I could stare at it each meal! |

How serene! I'm totally in love with your baker's table. Lots of great ideas to ponder here, although I'm committed now so will have to save them for the future. Can't believe how far you've come from that crazy mishmash at the beginning. Kudos to you. |

This is the first time I have seen it, and I am in awe. Love love love your color palette. Really, this forum is making me a fan of more modern style! I hope that you were able to write down the history of your table and maybe attach it to some hidden, out of the way spot. Someday that might prove to be of value! |

WOW! Your kitchen is stunning! Amazing job!!!! Do you happen to know what color the bakers table is? I want to paint my bathroom cabinets that color. I LOVE it!! |
- Posted by remodelfla (My Page) on Mon, Jan 20, 14 at 12:26
Thanks MrsShayne. Look at the post from Posted by remodelfla (My Page) on Tue, Jun 21, 11 at 19:44. It kinda describes how I came upon the color. I brought back the paint 3x and had them tweak the color so I guess it's somewhat custom colored. |
Oh wow, I didn't realize that (before) picture was the finished one at top (I didn't read everything)!!! DANG that looks amazing!!! I love it all!!!! |
- Posted by staceyneil (My Page) on Tue, Jan 21, 14 at 7:40
remodelfla, I was "away" from GW when you posted this originally. It's beautiful!!! Now I'm back because I am acting as the architect/designer for my mom's whole-house renovation. I have a question about your sink that might be a life-saver for my mom! It looks as though it doesn't have a "lip": as though it has straight sides and is simply installed with the top of the sink sides flush with your countertop. Is that actually the case??? If so, this could REALLY help my mom. She found an antique slate sink in the basement of her house (a 1700's cape cod in Maine) and had it restored so she could use it in her new kitchen. She really dislikes undermount sinks, for whatever reason, and has her heart set on simply dropping the slate sink into a cutout in the counter... not farmhouse/apron style but just dropped into a rectangle cut-out. (Since she wants to call attention to the material, she plans to have it about 1/4" proud of the counter, rather than flush like yours.) I'm worried about that installation because I've never seen anything like it. There's usually a horizontal mating surface between the counter and sink, either between the bottom of the counter and top of the sink in an undermount installation... or between the bottom of a drop-in sink's "lip" and the counter. In your case, as in my mom's proposed installation, it looks like the mating surface is vertical, that is between the edge of the counter and the side of the sink. My concern was that there'd need to be a really big, noticeable bead of caulk there which might be unsightly, and also that the eventual movement between the sink full of water and the surrounding counter would cause separation. If, in fact, this describes your installation, can you report on how it's held up over the last years? Thank you so much :) |
- Posted by remodelfla (My Page) on Tue, Jan 21, 14 at 9:03
I"m not quite sure what kind of pic I can send that will help you but here is an old pic right after installation that shows the flush mount. The sink is supported but a horizontal piece of wood underneath. You can somewhat see that in the pic. Please let me know if there is some other kind of pic that will help you and I"d be more then happy to take one. The sink is considered an apron front sink. |
- Posted by staceyneil (My Page) on Tue, Jan 21, 14 at 9:13
Thank you! So, is there some kind of sealant or caulk between the counter and the side of the sink? How has it been keeping gunk, water, etc out of that space? This is basically what my mom is proposing, except that hers will be just slightly proud of the top of the counter rather than flush, AND it won't be apron-style, it'll be fully enclosed by the counter. This is so helpful, thank you. |

I'm from the hosta forum...lol...how on earth did I get here, you wonder? Lol By following an advert-like pic of your baker's table!!! Your kitchen remodel is fantastic and rivals any professionally-designed kitchen anywhere! WOW! Utterly beautiful ---- you can feel the warmth, it just draws you in. You seem to have a natural flair for design and certainly have vision. All the comments you've received are well deserved. I am in awe of your ability and that of your DH....amazing! You two and your kitchen should be on TV!!! Thank you for an exciting peek at your kitchen/home. The pics are stunning. Jo |

Hi lyban, The possum belly drawers are curved inside like outside. The middle one has a divider. Somewhere on this forum, at some point, I had posted interior pics. Have no clue how to find them now! If you'd like, I'll be happy to take a pic of the interior when I I get home from work. Let me know if you want me to. |
Hi remodelfla, I see that your remodel was done a few years ago, and comments are resurfacing now. I had never seen this before, so I'm glad to have the chance, especially since you now have 3 years of living in your kitchen. Which gets me to my pressing question: How are your soapstone counters holding up? I absolutely love the look of soapstone, but I'm worried going with it because of how easily it can chip and scratch. Chipping on the edges of the counter tops is what concerns me the most. I know that scratches can be buffed or sanded out, but what do you do when your edges end up with lots of chips and gouges in them? I know that there are lots of different types of soapstone, and some are harder than others, but even the hardest samples I brought home (MOHS rating of 4.0) scratched with just my fingernail. Also, I'm wondering about oiling the soapstone. I know some people who have never oiled their soapstone counter tops. They seem to think that oiling doesn't do anything to preserve them, that it only changes the color and sheen. What have you done to maintain yours and are you happy with the way they look? Thanks so much for your time! |

I've got my pillows set up on the outdoor lounge chair so after my nap I will take some pics for you and post! We haven't wax or oiled in quite awhile and the kitchen gets constant abuse. |
You obviously don't live by me if you are napping outside, lol. Lucky. I don't remember seeing that bakers table before either... it is so gorgeous! What a beautiful kitchen. |

I was on GW and DH walked by and saw your bakers table in the ad strip on the right. He asked, isn't that soapstone? Spoken like a true TKO spouse : ) I love that bakers table. Do you use it frequently or is it more decorative? |
- Posted by remodelfla (My Page) on Thu, Feb 6, 14 at 6:10
Almost every single day debrak! Usually for making breakfasts, lunches, plating, laying down stuff right out of the oven, and we always use it as a buffet table table during frequent gatherings. Of course for baking too. |
Thank you, remodelfla, for the soapstone comments and pictures. I don't think that the imperfections and scratches would bother me too much, but we know we will probably have to sell our house in 7-8 years, so I need to keep resale in mind. I love the look of it so much, but I need to decide if we can keep it looking good enough over the long haul. I do wish there were an alternative that had a similar look and feel, but that was harder. Granite just doesn't have the same look, and when a black granite is honed, as some friends of mine have in their kitchen, it shows every little fingerprint and oil spot. I recently heard that Caesar Stone is introducing a lot of new colors that are supposed to look more like natural stones, but I have a hard time believing that there will be any that really look like soapstone or marble. |

My soapstone is hard so no real dings to speak of. I suggested taking a look a Jet Mist/ Virginia Jet Mist. Has a look similar to soapstone and you can get it honed which enhances it's likeness. |
Thanks for the suggestion. Is Jet Mist a type of granite? |
- Posted by remodelfla (My Page) on Thu, Feb 6, 14 at 19:23
Thanks, remodelfla! Jet Mist is a beautiful granite and, at least in the picture, looks a lot like soapstone. I wonder if when honed it has the same problems as honed Absolute Black, which shows every fingerprint. Worth checking out for sure. I appreciate your input, and your kitchen is absolutely gorgeous! |
Remodelfia, Love your kitchen. Still planning ours. I am in love with your cabinet doors. I know you got them from Scherrs and they were the rift sawn oak flat slab doors (any other specifics would be great). Also, were they pretty affordable? I am also doing an IKEA kitchen and I love their system, but find the door choices boring. What color did you stain the doors (or were they stained by the company) and where did you get the pulls? I love the modern, yet classic look. Thanks and I appreciate your time. |
- Posted by remodelfla (My Page) on Fri, Sep 19, 14 at 8:33
Ruby...I didn't see this till now. I hope you got the info you needed from the other thread. |
Remodelfla, Thanks so much. Found your other thread. I was going to order a sample from scherrs. Did you use the premium quarter sawn white oak or the premium quarter sawn red oak? Thanks. Again, love the natural, but modern feel to your kitchen. Ruby22 |
- Posted by remodelfla (My Page) on Fri, Sep 19, 14 at 20:05
Prem QS white oak. Our home as you may have gathered is small and it somewhat blended in with the floors we choose. Helped to achieve the open flow type look we wanted. |

I divided my false agave today and removed two pups from it. These pups are over a foot tall already. My mother plant is between four and five feet wide, growing in a pot, and is absolutely gorgeous. I am looking for named hardy agave plants (to Zone 7), Thai CoT, or tropical plants off my wish list. I have pictures of the pups and the mother plant if you'd like to see them. |

Feb 23rd 2012 11:58AM Grovin,
You are probably right about that; however, from a planning and prep perspective Blizzard has to expect them all to actively participate throughout the course of the Beta or plan for a tiered entrance into the Beta because if they go by your assumption and then the opposite happens it would be a nightmare of complaints and bad press etc.

Jan 27th 2012 4:33PM I'm not trying to start a flame war over which faction Blizzard favors or anything but with all of the talk from Devs etc about trying to reach/maintain parity wouldn't this be a sign that something is off? I mean if they are all playing Horde because of some actual advantage to playing those races for raiding then wouldn't that mean there is an inbalance between the factions at least from a raiding standpoint?

Jan 27th 2012 2:57PM One thing I noticed which I had an idea about before but really hit home here is that it seems all of the top guilds play Horde side. Other than all the fanboys giving meaningless responses like "Because the Horde are better" is there actually a reason why they all seem to choose to play horde at that level of raiding?

Emergence at the Orlando White House with CF2, April 29
A lot of work is coming to fruition at the Orlando White House on April 29. The Central Florida Composers Forum, now nearly a year old, is getting its land legs. In late January, CF2 member works were included in UCF's percussion-focused Collide Festival with great success, and the momentum from that concert has lead to a well-publicized and much anticipated multi-media event at the Timucua White House at 7PM on April 29. See the Orlando Weekly write-up here.
Two new works will premiere on this concert: local arts luminary and musical director of La Nouba (Cirque du Soleil) Benoit Glazer's Suite Circassienne #6 for brass quintet and percussion quintet and Full Sail University's Rebekah Todia's The Solitary for soprano and piano.
Also on the concert will be Rollins College professor of composition Daniel Crozier's Winter Aubade, for piano solo and my Emergence, for flute quartet, prerecorded audio and video projection.
The composers will all be present and are joined by an impressive body of performers: Benoit Glazer & Mike Avila, trumpets; Kathy Thomas, horn; Jeff Thomas, trombone; Bob Carpenter, tuba; Jeff Moore, Matt Roberts, Wesley Strasser, Thad Anderson & Garth Steger, percussion; Julie Batman, Soprano; Heidi Louise Williams & Rebekah Todia, piano; and Elsa Kate Nichols, Nicholas Buonanni, Adriane Hill, Anielka Silva, flutes.

I am hoping someone out there can help me untangle a mess on the web. I will try to be brief in my explanation. In my latest effort to list the ranch property for sale, a prospective agent ran a quick search of our property using a real estate information site. The report, called an Instant Merge Report, was bits and pieces of information gleaned from tax records, deeds, etc. The info that came back was old (1990), incorrect and had some damaging references made, such as one parcel was foreclosed on. I also found that there was another person with the same name that was/is a real estate developer and that opened another can of worms. After many hours of research, I contacted the info company to dispute their data and was given a verbal run-around until I informed the "data manager" that I also researched his company and found that the FTC had fined his company in the past for failure to correct bad information. In the conversation, he said he "verified" his info with a competitor's site. Same info, meaning same wrong info.
Here's the nightmare and my plea for help: I know of at least three RE info sites that have shared the same wrong information. Can anyone suggest what paths I should take to try to find the main source? The California Dept. of Real Estate has nothing to to with internet info sites. The FTC home page was only marginally helpful. Most of these RE info sites are fee based and only release info to licensed RE agents. Agents accessings these sites will get the wrong infomation and this may be why the property never sold. I would be most appreciative of any advice, suggestions, positive vibes, maybe a prayer or two. Thanks,
Follow-Up Postings:
Can you re-submit an entirely new ad? Or have them re-print the information but only the information you provide to them. |
Take your post to the buying & selling forum. There are a lot of realtors there that can probably give you ideas. Give the post a better title so that it catches the agents eyes, making sure it pertains to the subject of the post |
Here is a link that might be useful: buying & selling

This may be a stupid question (I know no question is stupid) here goes...When you bring the plants, bulbs etc to the swap for trade, must they be in pots? I'm assuming no. Can I wrap them as I would for a plant exchange via snail mail. I'm thinking of putting the Crocosmia bulbs in a box and then bring small lunch bags for people to take what they want. I have a small garden compared to some as I have a townhouse but it is packed with plants. I will bring what I can. I promise to bring food. Silly me thought it was this coming saturday...but it's NEXT Saturday. You know of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most.

Follow-Up Postings:
I have no idea why it says 'wanted'. Sorry. Where is my proof reader? |
I worried about all that sort of stuff too, for my first swap this Spring. You'll quickly learn not to worry about it. Dug up bulbs in lunch bags are fine. Dug up plants in pots are fine, dumped in a plastic bag is fine too. At the moment, my worry is the rain, or the lack thereof. The amount of rain we've (not) been having, I don't know how I'll manage to dig anything up. All the threads on this forum starts of with either a 'Wanted' or a 'Have' in the subject. To get rid of it, you'll have to write your post, click 'Preview Message', and then change the subject, preview again before submitting. At least, that's the way I remember it. Suja |
Thank Suja for replying. I just came from looking at what I can dig up. The lily of the valley is turning brown but is alive. Maybe someone will want them. It's almost embarrassing the way some of my plants look because of lack of rain. The Chelone 'Hot Lips' looks great Go figure. I've watered but Mother Nature looks like she has won. :-( |
- Posted by gardnwatch z7MD (My Page) on Tue, Oct 4, 05 at 19:49
Ree.. Even though all of my garden needs watering desperately, I plan to water around just the plants and bulbs and things I am giving away. It should be enough to get them out of the garden in shape to put in pots or bags. I'm glad to hear you are coming to the swap. There are alot of nice people that come to this event. Bring brownies or something chocolate and they will love you for life...... I'll be there and it will be nice to meet you. Bonnie |
And I look forward to meeting you Gardenwatch. :-) I am loving this glorious rain right now. I have hundreds of bulbs that need to be planted and this will make it a bit easier. I will certainly bring something sweet and something not so sweet. |

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 Joseph!
Facts about Joseph
- Breed: Treeing Walker Coonhound
- Color: Tricolor (Tan/Brown & Black & White)
- Age: Puppy
- Size: Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
- Sex: Male
Joseph's Info...
I am purebred.
This sweet boy needs a foster, or an adopter. He is a sweet puppy, about 5 months old. If you can help us by fostering, or are interested in adoption, please go to www.poetanimalrescue.org for an application. Joseph loves other dogs and loves to be loved on. He is very well behaved in his crate, but needs some work on his house manners. He is food motivated and loves to chew on his bone. Joseph is one of the most mild mannered coonhounds we've had. He is very chill and quiet.
Other Pets at P.O.E.T. Animal Rescue
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Joseph, a Garden City Treeing Walker Coonhound puppy was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Treeing Walker Coonhound for sale in Garden City, or seeking a Treeing Walker Coonhound puppy from a breeder in Garden City.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Garden City 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 Garden City 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 Treeing Walker Coonhound breeders who help with Treeing Walker Coonhound rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Garden City paves the way for another one to be saved.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I totally love my Illustarted Love Save the Date magnets. I started distributing the magnets last week and I have gotten a lot of compliments. The quality of the picture is so clear. The magnet has such a romantic feel. I made the right choice by choosing this magnet. I am a very happy customer."
"Our save the dates turned out beautifully! I love the design, it worked perfectly with our off center photo. The paper is thick, good quality postcard paper and the white/gray design worked great with our brightly colored (blues, whites, pinks) photo. I am so excited to send them to our friends and family!"
"I just got my save the dates in the mail, and they are so gorgeous! I am impressed with the quality of it all. I got them in the pink and black color, with the shimmer paper and shimmer white envelopes, and i love how they came out. I also asked if i could have my wedding website added to the back of the card, which was done and it looks lovely. I am very pleased, and look forward to ordering my invitations!"
"This save the date was perfect for us. We started by choosing our favorite suite for invitations, but realized we didn't have any engagement photos for our save the dates - no worries!!! Although you have to order first and then request customization, Wedding Paper Divas did an excellent job altering the save the date to exclude a portrait. It was simple and elegant, preserving the original text and design. To save cost, we also went with the basic paper choice. The paper quality and weight are both sufficient. The design is very pretty. Simple and tasteful. We are very pleased with our purchase."
"I searched many sites to find a design that was simple yet elegant and I finally found it with the Simplified Deco. I was very pleased with the design process which was very easy, and the complimentary design/etiquette review caught several errors which saved me a headache! I have received tons of compliments from friends and family who say they are beautiful! I plan to use this whole suite for my wedding and look forward to working with WPD again!"

Music, dance performance by group from Ghana
"Africa in the House," an evening of music and dance by the African Show Boyz, will be held at CSU Monterey Bay on Feb. 7.
The free program will get under way at 7 p.m. in the Music Hall.
Born and raised in Binaba, a small village in northeast Ghana, brothers Napoleon, Joseph, Isaac, Francis and JJ Sabbah have performed for enthusiastic audiences in the U.S. and Africa, and have collaborated with musicians including Stevie Wonder.
The group specializes in traditional dance and drum rhythms, using the kone, siyak, binbill, and the bintitat, all instruments made in their village. They sing about peace, happiness and togetherness.
The audience will have an opportunity to ask the artists about Ghanaian culture, historical and contemporary ties between West Africa and the wider African Diaspora and other topics in a question-and-answer session following the performance.
The performance is free, but a parking permit must be purchased. The Music Hall is located on Sixth Avenue, between Butler Street and Col. Durham Road.
Professor Umi Vaughan will host the event.
