You start your brand new journey into madness with a magazine pic. Your inspiration. That's IT! The ONE! I want my kitchen to look EXACTLY like that!
And yet, when you are done, your kitchen looks like this: What the heck happened? Why doesn't my kitchen look like my inspiration? 1. Layout schmayout. Why do I need to move anything around? Yeah, so I only have 18" between my sink and stove and stand in that corner for everything I do in the kitchen. I've lived with this for 10 years and gotten used to it. It's fine. 2. Wow! cherry is expensive! I'll save $1200 by going with oak instead. It's close, so it'll be fine. 3. Full overlay doors are $800 more than partial overlay doors. No one will will ever notice the difference. It'll be fine. 4. I know the KD is recommending honed Absolute Black, but black counters are just so DARK! I want my kitchen to be light and bright. I'll go with a light countertop instead. It'll be fine. 5. Wood floors in a kitchen make me nervous. What if it leaks? Tile will stand up to a flood much better. I'll go with tile. But I hate cleaning grout, so I'll pick a dark grout that won't show dirt. I'm all about easy care and this will be fine. 6.That black crown molding is going to be dated at some point and I'll wonder why I spent my money on it. I'll just do the plain wood. It'll be fine. 7.I'll go ahead and replace the fridge, because the ice maker is shot, but why should I buy new appliances when the others I have are still working? It'll be fine. 8. Undercabinet lighting? Recessed lighting? Are they serious? I've lived without it all these years and I'm not spending money on that now. It'll be fine. 9. Wrought iron knobs? Nah, the black will show all kinds of dirt. Nickel will be a lot easier to clean. It'll be fine. 10.OMG! My kitchen is so beige and brown and boring! And it's dark with that dark wood. I'll hang that light in the spare room above the sink. And I'll paint the walls red for a POP of color. It's fine. And, it's---well, fine. It's a new kitchen. With the selection of decent quality products, it will last you a while. It's not BAD. It's not ugly. It's just not ANYTHING like it could have been! |
Follow-Up Postings:
LOL! That is so on the mark! I can just hear all of these things coming out of my mouth! I think this post has shown how that kind of rationalizing can really work against our "vision". Thanks for the reminder to stay true to our inspiration! |
Dear Abby used to repeatedly run a column on why people didn't like the pie they made from the recipe after substituting for this or that so it must be a bum recipe. :) Harken ladies and gentlemen!! When you choose a magazine for your inspiration picture, make sure it fits what you want to do! There are a lot of looks that I like in other people's kitchens that would never do in mine, including those black counters. LWO, are the clients happy? Did it really go "wrong"? Or is this one of those things where the parts of the inspiration picture they really wanted were the round knobs, sunny window and medium toned wood? If they really like those red walls, maybe it is. Not everyone wants gorgeous and snappy, and some people are much happier holding the line on the budget than getting something really really nice for a larger investment. Different strokes and all. And there are people here who think their new kitchens are beige and boring before things are moved in, clutter is on the counters, and people are moving around. That's why they choose neutral colors to begin with, to give a resting place for the eye beyond all the ruckus of their lives. So I choose to hope these people are really satisfied with what they've gotten, even though it doesn't have the style of the inspiration picture. |
I don't know if this is supposed to represent an actual thought process or just a hypothetical. Personally, I think the oak kitchen would require less work to make it into a good kitchen than the inspiration photo! |
Hilarious. I feel like there's a groundswell movement on this board. Occupy Bad Designing. I'm glad to see that people are being directly challenged now when they post an inspiration pic followed by a series of choices that completely violate every aspect of their goal. Design is not a Colorforms exercise, where you get to pick your favorite element from this design and another element from that design, and have them automatically work together. And those who coo "Do what YOU love" are performing the worst disservice of all--that phrase is appropriate only when someone with a solid vision keeps getting overruled by their contractor, husband or mother-in-law. This all reminds me of a comment pal made in another thread about why some people can't draw. They can't see what is actually in front of them, a wavy series of specific lines and angles and curves that make a neck. They see the neck in their head, which they know is sort of a tube, and thus they draw pictures like a five year old. Same thing happens with inspiration pictures--people don't actually see what's in front of them. You should ask yourself, what do I see here? List the elements in words, if that helps. I see strong contrast between certain elements. I see horizontal linearity, two parallel lines made by the crown and countertop. I see reddish wood, not yellow wood. And so on. Figure out which of the things on the list are things you really like. If it isn't that many, go find another inspiration. |
Your inspiration picture got you motivated to start, so that's a good thing ! Don't beat yourself up, you did what you had to do and your kitchen |
They aren't even from the same decade are they? |
First reaction: ouch, that hits too close to home. Second reaction: thanks for such a good thought exercise. I'm still in the planning stages. I have a death grip on the throat of our budget restrictions (or maybe the budget has me in a death grip.) Our neighborhood won't allow us to recoup much of our investment if we go way overboard on a kitchen remodel. But, this encourages me to carefully consider the design ramifications of each compromise, even if they are grounded in financial realities. What's the point, after spending the money and doing all the work, if I'm generally disappointed in the results, deep down inside? I might be better off to keep the money in my bank account and apply that "it'll be fine" comment to my 1960's country blue kitchen. I totally agree with Marcolo (and Pal's) observations. Being able to truly and quickly see the critical elements that make a project work (or not) isn't something that comes easily or naturally to many of us (darn it.) I have to really work at it, and think hard about each part. (My kitchen will probably be done sometime around 2020.) If I want to really be happy with the final project, I guess I need to keep a close eye on settling for things along the way, and really try to see how each compromise may affect the sum total. And maybe some elements won't even require a bigger chunk of money to make a better choice...it might just require more careful consideration and creativity on my part (she says hopefully.) Good food for thought. |
I think when you eventually replace the appliances with all SS and change the color (red usually gets old after about 5 years..that's what our painter says anyway) to a warmer color it will look better. did you DIY the tile? |
I think one can make compromises/changes without going so far off course. The phrase about perfect being the enemy of the good can cover some changing. |
well, I'll never say "It'll be fine" again...but I sometimes wish for Granamils (sp?) kitchen tags lol. The design threads and this one are educational and interesting. At least I'm now doing moodboards of different ideas for my kitchen, and that is very helpful. many thanks to all who are creating and participating on the design threads, trends threads, and threads like this one of LWO's! |

Sorry, I didn't mean for anyone to take me literally like this is my kitchen or one I've done. There's been so much talk and so many examples of design angst even with an inspiration pic that I though I'd show why even people who do have a good idea of where they want to end up veer off of track into a mediocre "safe" design. To be absolutely clear, I found the two kitchens by searching first for "ugly kitchen" and the oak kitchen came up as being self titled that. I don't think it's a bad kitchen, and it could even be tweaked to be a pretty darn nice kitchen. But, someone somewhere tagged it that and put it on the web. I then searched for "cherry slab cabinets" to find a more cohesively designed kitchen using the major design element of the oak kitchen. The whole "I'll choose this instead of that" is a fictional account of how we can start out with the best of intentions and lose the courage to follow through and thus compromise into bland and boring. I'm not saying that to "have it all" you can't do it on a budget. You absolutely CAN! If you've read any of the design threads, you've noted that I'm all about stretching the dollar. But, that means making smart compromises, and not losing sight of the design vision. In my mythical example above, choosing the oak over the cherry would be a fine choice, if the stain were tweaked a bit to be a bit more reddish in tone. And, even though the oak cabinets aren't "fully full" overlay, they are close enough. If they had smaller doors with more prominent stiles and rails, they would not work. Where it starts to veer off track is in the countertop choice. A laminate is a fine choice, and there are loads of great colors. But, the spirit of the original kitchen is lost by not choosing a black counter. Then the floor veers badly off base. Tile again would be a fine functional choice, but not in that light tone, and NOT with that darker grout with the light tone. It looks like a fast food restaurant. A better tile choice would be something darker with the dark grout. Maybe one of the new faux wood look tiles, or slate look in a medium dark tone. The hardware misses also. You need the contrast of the darker hardware. I hope that this "design decent into compromise hell" exercise is helpful with those who want to achieve something great in their space. Keep the vision. Even if you have to do the project in stages to accomplish it. |
Keep the vision. Okay, I'm gonna tattoo that on my forehead. ;-) |

I blame HGTV for the "compromise into bland and boring". Those damn real estate shows and their "resale value" bugaboo have stifled any actual creativity that people feel and injected fear into a process that should be about a fun form of self expression. OK, maybe that's over the top in the self expression department, but no one has any doubt as to the personality of the family living there! And at least it's colorful, light hearted and FUN! |
LOL! My first thought after reading the initial post was "If they had only kept the dark counters and the wood floor, it would have been closer to the vision." To my eye (and I'm normally a function over form sort of gal), it was loss of that contrast that was the biggest deviation (dark counter to light, semi-dark floor to light). And add in the dark knobs to metal ones. Though, as those are easy to change, as is the paint. I'm hoping that my resulting kitchen has some resonance with my inspiration photo. I know it cannot possible _match_, as I decided not to blow out the back wall and increase the footprint. It is that "resonance" that I feel as the "keeping the vision" spirit. --Lee |
I've always loved that kitchen, GDesigns! I especially like the plants. It's not so obnoxious when you notice the blizzard outside. :) |
Totally spot on. It wouldn't be so funny (and sad) if I hadn't seen versions of this happen. Usually less egregious, but the pattern is there. I'm a big fan of design software for visualization. You can see what happens when you take away or change one of the design elements, and you don't need the gift of being able to do that in your head. |
I forgot to add that the Black Silgranit sink does NOT show water marks..one of the many reasons we purchased one! REALLLY REALLLLLY LIKE my Blanco Silgranit Sink! |

Haha, I wonder how many people read this and thought that it was directed to them specifically. I am betting quite a few, I know that I saw myself in lots of these statements. I have been guilty of a few "it will be fine" moments, especially when the budget is a huge consideration....I can make particleboard look like walnut, right? You missed another big one....realizing that your urban loft design isn't keeping with the decor in your bungalow/colonial/farm house! |
I think it's time this went to the top again. I was thinking the same thing. There are encouraging signs from a few folks who have been following the Design Around threads. But then someone actually, really, truly posted that as long as she picked things she loved, she didn't need a vision. She'd be fine. |
Mudhouse, tattoo it on your hand, because you can't see it on your forehead. If you look in the mirror, which you won't be doing while making choices, you'd have had to tatoo it backwards to read it anyway. [lol] I have "Don't Settle" written all over the place. But then, I don't have finished drywall and lots of it is on the studs. What the heck! : ) I wish I had an inspiration picture, actually. I tend to be inspired by components. So far, I'm happy with my choices and when I find I'm not? I just change 'em. |
I can make particleboard look like walnut, right? kellienoelle, please quit stealing my ideas. |

Well, mudhouse, I will concede the idea to you. But if you can find a way to actually make it work and post it here, then I am totally going to steal it. ;) |
This is great advice. Our reno included the kitchen and 2 baths. For the kitchen and one of the baths I has a vision, stuck to it and they turned out great. For the other bath, I had a vision, let myself get sidetracked and became sort of indecisive, and made some last minute decisions thinking it will be "fine." Well,, it turned out "fine," but not great like the other 2 rooms. And for the money I spent, I would have preferred great. What I learned from the process was to have an end goal in mind, and to ask yourself with each design decision you make, "Does this fit with the plan?" It really helped me to have all my materials (including backsplash) selected prior to the demo, so that I could take the time beforehand to make cohesive choices rather than feeling pressure down the road to make last minute choices because "the contractor wants to do the backsplash/pulls/paint/whatever tomorrow." The other thing that helps is, if you don't have a great eye for design (and I don't--these were the most major design decisions I'd ever made), bouncing your material choices off a friend (or professional) whose taste you trust to make sure you're on track. This forum is great for layout advice, but as far as aesthetics, people are all over the place in taste and style. And they don't know you or your home or neighborhood, or even the true colors of your choices since everything looks different on a computer monitor. |

I can't believe I missed this back in November. I nominate it for GWKF 2011 Post of the Year. |
Too funny! Am I the only one who didn't have an inspirational kitchen? I never really saw a completed kitchen I wanted to copy 100%. I guess it helped I remodeled a kitchen in my previous home, and learned what not to do again. (Well, except for a few small mistakes lol) |
- Posted by SusieQusie60 (My Page) on Mon, Jan 2, 12 at 20:02
No jillsee, you're not the only one. I never saw any kitchen that I felt I wanted to copy 100%. Nothing even close. Just kitchens that had certain features that I liked...dark wood floors, open shelving, beadboard backsplash. I think my vision was more something in my head, not in someone else's photograph. SQ |
- Posted by antiquesilver (My Page) on Tue, Jan 3, 12 at 17:50
I missed this in Nov as well but I think I've met the imaginary owner, LOL! Many years ago, I drew up plans to help a neighbor update a small kitchen in an older home to make it functional & age appropriate at minimun cost. She never mentioned that she made changes to the original plan but when it was finished,she had changed everything including purchasing scratch-&-dent appliances in the wrong sizes. It wasn't a change in vision (because apparently she never had one), it was a disaster - but she was so pleased she couldn't stop bragging to the neighbors about how I designed the beautiful kitchen for her. I moved shortly thereafter! If she & the kitchen are still around, I bet she thinks it looks just like my rendering! NOT |
Here's one of my favorite maxims, that I invoke at moments of indecision: One of Socrates students came to him for advice on the eve of his wedding - should he go ahead with it? Should he back out? "Whatever you decide, young man," Socrates was supposed to have said, "you will regret it." Human nature in a nutshell! |
I think I am as guilty as HGTV of inspiring ideas but not the work involved when I post visuals. Please know I love kitchen eye candy and if this inspires ~boxer who loves this topic thanks op. |
I love your 1985 kitchen. Don't you? |

Great thread! I think that it takes time to develop an eye for discernment. Some people never are able to see differences from one choice to the next. But those are usually the people who don't care what it looks like, so they'd never post here. The issue comes from someone who can tell enough of a difference to know something is "wrong" but they do not have enough discernment to choose the "right" thing. But, I will blame the "video generation shortened attention span" for the lack of ability to maintain a direction. You're looking at wallpaper samples for the kitchen, and then you come across something that has your bedroom's colors and instead of taking a photo with your phone and making a note, you start looking at stuff for the bedroom, and then it morphs into thinking "would I need new towels in the master with this", and then it devolves into thinking about shopping for stuff in general and now it's time to pick up the kids from soccer practice. Look! It's a shiny foil paper! |
- Posted by buffettgirl (My Page) on Mon, Jan 16, 12 at 13:09
I'm glad this thread was bumped. Part of the problem is I think that when we're looking at inspiration photos especially in magazines or online, and even here to an extent, many time we're looking at things that are WAY out of our budgets (without knowing it) and when we go to add them in we realize just how much ONE special faucet costs, or ONE bit of tile for the backsplash. So in an effort to get a look that is comparable we substitute something that "is fine" but in the end doesn't quite make the cut; a white subway tile for a white subway "style" tile. We've all seen pictures of really crap looking subway tile. |

ROFLMAO at the original post ... I've had some landscaping clients who did the same things to their yards. They say they want "low maintenance, casual, low water use" and I come back to find out they have planted 5 flats of petunias and overseeded the buffalo grass with annual rye. It's a good idea, with your inspiration pics or your Pinterest pins, to isolate EXACTLY what appeals to you and why. Because if you can't explain why you like it in words, no one else will be able to make it happen. What problem does it solve for you, what ambiance does it have? And what would you give up elsewhere to get THAT detail? Where are your design lines in the sand? |
Great post, educational and fun at the same time. I'm glad I read it when first bumped in January and decided to follow this advice yesterday when finalizing a paint selection for a basement bathroom (that snuck itself into my main floor and kitchen reno somehow). I found a photo with a colour scheme both DH and I really liked, then almost immediately thought about how changing the xxx to yyy could still be nice and sent my GC the decision to go with yyy. I'm not sure why. Maybe I thought it might tie in with the rest of the basement better (in reality both would be fine with the rest of the space)? Or maybe because I actually had been thinking about painting it yyy anyway? The latter most likely, or some other reason I can't put my finger on. Then thought about this post. I asked myself "what's the point of following an inspiration if you don't actually follow it?!" So we're going with the inspirational xxx after all. My basement bathroom (and DH) thank all of you for contributing to this post! |
Wow, I missed this thread when it was originally posted. Interesting idea, Live Wire Oak. It takes a deep thinker with overtones of cleverness and wisdom in order to produce a thread like this. My dream kitchen morphed many times in my mind because the planning and construction took so long. I must have had at least four dream kitchens, serially. I still think longingly of the kitchens that never were but I am happy with the one that evolved into being. I am not sad to say that expediency, cost, compromise, and dire change were part of the evolution. And serendipity. What we ended up with was bigger and grander in function and simpler in materials than I had assumed we would create. This has turned out to be a good thing. And the room is very pleasant to be in. I do think that it's important to make lists at the beginning--what do I want from the room from the get-go--the reason(s) for the new kitchen? how do I use a kitchen? what will I want from it over time? how will I and my family change in ten, fifteen, twenty years? what fads are just fads and what can be done to avoid letting the room get dated too fast? and so on. Sweeby Test stuff. |
I'm late to the party here, but I'm finding this thread to be very, very interesting. I'm a little hesitant to jump in, because I'm pretty challenged in the decorating department and I usually just watch from the sidelines. I poke in on those "Design Around This" threads and I marvel at what you guys can come up with--my mind just doesn't work that way. I really want to go from "here" to "there", but am usually not sure just how. I can get the basics down, but when we get into the details I begin to waffle. One of the previous posters said this, "Some people never are able to see differences from one choice to the next. But those are usually the people who don't care what it looks like That's not completely true, and I'm an example of someone who might not see that difference until it's pointed out--but I do care. Being able to see quickly what "works" in a given decorating scheme and what simply doesn't is a gift. What may be obvious to you is not necessarily obvious to others. I'm that way with cooking. I can create dishes in my head, or take a recipe and nudge it this way or that way to make it better/different/unusual. It's intuitive. To my mother in law, who does not have this ability, it's almost like magic. (She has her own talents). I'm like that watching you guys decorate. Reading a thread like this is interesting because LWO pointed out just where things went awry--and that's the kind of thing I need to learn, but struggle with. LOL, I'm currently wrestling with yet another decorating decision, the dreaded backsplash. I may paint it and avoid a decision altogether--but that's really not the look I'd hoped to achieve. Asking the Expert at the tile store didn't yield a whole lot of help, because after I'd narrowed down the choices she presented, I posted here for validation. The opinion was almost unanimously thumbs down. OK, I'll shuffle off and just go back to looking on. :-) Cj |
Cj, I really don't think the above poster meant for that comment to apply to anyone who takes the time and effort to participate here (and here you are, and I'm glad.) The entire quote read, "Some people never are able to see differences from one choice to the next. But those are usually the people who don't care what it looks like, so they'd never post here." My italics on the last (pretty important) words. You're here! I am a good person to agree with your cooking analogy, because I can't cook. Hardly at all. My gifted gourmet friends who cook intuitively ("oh, just a pinch of this or that") drive me crazy. I know I could improve, somewhat. But the truth is, I don't really care enough about it to spend the time sharpening my culinary skills. I'd much rather be doing other things that I find more rewarding. Accordingly, I never post in cooking forums. That would be how I'd interpret the above comment. I hope you'll keep posting and participating. I'm here to learn too, although I don't yet have a kitchen as lovely as yours. Believe me, these folks are going to get a lot of questions from me, when I get to the "waffly details" you mention. ;-) |
:-) I didn't take it as an insult or anything, the people on this forum are generally very nice, so I tend to interpret what's said in a positive way. I'm sorry if it came off as being a negative post--I really didn't mean it that way at all, just offering another perspective. And by the way, to those of you who hopped over and responded to my plea for help with my backsplash, many, many thanks. If you EVER need help with a stew, a soup, a roast, etc. you know where to find me. :-) Cj |
Bump for new peeps! |

LWO, that first post is just too funny. And probably oh so true. What a great post, so glad it got resurrected. |
Oh, that was so entertaining. And enlightening! There's a cooking forum? I was hoping to move on to the decorating forum since my family room & dining room don't really go with my new kitchen. DH would probably like it if I actually cooked & quit spending money. |
romy-ha! We are doing a new build and dh can't believe the cost of the ranges (that I want and they are under $3k) - he keeps saying for that amount of money it better cook some amazing food. :) I say just give me the chance and it WILL! lwo-the slippery slope of budget. Yikes. This will not be me, this will not be me!!!!!!! |

I had forgotten about this thread. It's one of those that should be a "sticky" at the top! And I miss Pal's insights here. Too bad too many people took his brilliance personally and snarked on him. |
Don't know how I missed this - twice. Livewire's premise was amusing but true. Like some others, my inspiration kitchens all had a certain feeling that matched my Sweeby list, not necessarily specific finishes or details. |
- Posted by mlweaving_Marji (My Page) on Thu, Jan 9, 14 at 11:39
oh LWO, the original inspiration pic is gone. I was just going to show this to my dh, but without the insp pic it loses in the translation. |
Bumping 'cause it's true! LWO, can you put the inspiration picture back in, or one like it? Love this, and I fear this in myself frequently! "It'll be fine!" |
I love this thread. I'm glad someone resurrected this because now I can bookmark it. It can apply to other rooms in the house as well. Or an outfit you are trying to put together or... |
Great thread! My related thoughts: I think one BIG theme here is, Know Thyself. Someone else mentioned that cooking comes naturally to her -- I could say the same thing. It's easy for me, and it's fun. But I'm remembering my beloved aunt, who did not have that talent. She was always AMAZED that I could look at the pantry and whip up something company-worthy without a recipe. It was solidly outside her talent set. But she could do dozens of other things that I couldn't -- we genuinely appreciated one another, and I miss her. Back to design . . . I know that I personally am very good at layout . . . but I absolutely STINK at color. I am a color idiot. Some time back I discovered a fantastic website about color in design, and I learned about bases of colors -- that is, the difference between a gray-based blue vs. a beige-based blue. However, I still don't really trust myself on colors. So I'll pay someone to help me with color. |
I wanted to address the comment that the kitchen ends up being way more boring than the inspiration picture. This is something that is happening to me. I'm choosing something very neutral, with the main hard elements lacking character. The reason is because the kitchen is open to the living room and family room, and I want to have different options on how to decorate the other spaces. If, for example, I went full-fledge 'country' style in the kitchen, I'd have to go full-fledged country in the living room and dining room too. I just don't want to do that. Or if I went full-fledged MCM, I'd have to do all MCM furniture, and I can't do that either. Put another way: inspiration pics are very 'bossy' and reflect a very narrow style. If you look at this lovely cottage kitchen,... ... how are you going to introduce any non-bluey-green elements here? You can't. It's bossy. And even Sarah Richardson herself is wearing a blue shirt to match the kitchen. It would look wrong if she were wearing a red shirt or a purple shirt. I think having such a bossy style would feel like jail. Now, on the other hand, if your kitchen is cut off from the rest of the house, then you have more freedom to be more creative, because you don't have to coordinate the tile with the sofa and the coffee table, kwim? |
Florantha got it right! Dream kitchens. Kitchens in the plural. There are so many separate elements that I like but if I try to put them together I end up with a mess. Certain elements work in certain kitchens and not in others; understanding what works and sticking to it is 9/10 of the job and it's cost-effective too in that you don't end up redoing it. |

One more thing: As a photography teacher, I can say that the quality of the photography in these pictures is not equal. That is, the black countertop picture was taken from a very nice angle, showing the kitchen to best advantage. The lighting is nicely done. In contrast, the red walls picture is poorly composed. It's almost as if the photographer were emphasizing the flooring and the poor layout. If taken from a different angle, it would look better -- maybe not as good as the other picture, but this kitchen is shown at its worst. Mind you, I'm not saying the point is invalid; just pointing out that quality of photography matters. |

July 13 (Bloomberg) -- The gilded dome of New Jersey's State House looks down upon an idled $87 million park project and graffiti spray-painted on a parking garage: "GHOST TOWN @ FIVE," a dig at thousands of suburb-dwelling government workers who pay no taxes to the city of Trenton.
From New Jersey to Nebraska, capital cities are crying poverty as states close $103 billion in budget deficits, partly by slashing local aid. Governments own much of those cities' real estate and pay only a fraction of the revenue that would be due if the land were in private hands.
In Trenton, half of the property is state-owned, limiting the city's ability to generate revenue. After a 23 percent aid cut in fiscal 2011, the former industrial hub with the slogan "Trenton Makes, The World Takes" was expecting to receive $24 million, or 13 percent of its revenue, from the state in 2012. It may not get any after Governor Chris Christie, a first- term Republican, slashed funding for a program that helps distressed cities to $10 million from $149 million.
"Cities like Trenton can't survive enormous budget cuts when the biggest property owner in the city is exempt from paying taxes," Assemblywoman Bonnie Watson Coleman, a Trenton Democrat, said in a June 10 statement.
Trenton, where nearly a quarter of the 83,200 residents live in poverty, is preparing for the worst. It plans to fire more than 100 police officers and some civilian staff, and increase property taxes 21 percent, said David Rousseau, a financial consultant to Mayor Tony Mack who was state treasurer for Christie's predecessor, Democrat Jon Corzine.
Under Review
The credit ratings of Trenton and five other New Jersey cities were put under review yesterday for possible downgrade by Moody's Investors Service, which cited Christie's latest aid cut. The company lowered Trenton to A3, the fourth-lowest investment grade, in May 2010, after Christie's initial reduction. Towns and cities in New Jersey, the second-wealthiest U.S. state, led the country in downgrades last year.
Trenton's rating "incorporates the city's high debt burden and moderately sized tax base, nearly half of which remains nontaxable as the state's capital," Moody's said in a January report that assigned a negative outlook to the debt, which means the rating could be lowered again.
It's doubtful whether towns will ever receive the level of help from states they once did, said Alan Schankel, director of fixed-income research at the financial services firm Janney Montgomery Scott LLC in Philadelphia.
"It's not just the state capitals, but obviously they're the ones in the headlights," Schankel said in a July 7 phone interview. "I don't think it's coming back."
Jobs Cut
Lawmakers in Lincoln, Nebraska, this year eliminated $1.8 million for the capital city, "nothing real drastic," city Finance Director Don Herz said, although painful enough.
"We've cut about 160 positions in the past three years," Herz said in a June 23 telephone interview. "We don't trim our trees as much as we did. We reduced some library hours. Pools aren't open quite as much."
Not every capital is in such poor shape. North Dakota, the third-least-populous state, with 672,600 residents, had a $1 billion two-year budget surplus in 2010 because of an economic boom tied to oil drilling. Bismarck, the capital, and its surrounding region have the lowest U.S. employment rate: 2.9 percent in May, compared with 9.1 percent nationally. Last year the city's property-tax base grew 3.86 percent, and the budget accommodated street resurfacing, water-plant upgrades and health programs, according to a financial report.
Police and Roads
Since 2001, New Jersey lawmakers representing Trenton have unsuccessfully sponsored legislation calling on the state to make payments in lieu of taxes to help cover the cost of services such as police and road maintenance.
Some cities, rather than begging state government, are chasing private money. In May, California Governor Jerry Brown proposed selling 42 blocks of state-owned land, an urban renewal project with about 75 commercial and mixed-income residential buildings in downtown Sacramento, the capital. The state would collect proceeds from any sale and the city would increase its tax base. Sacramento hasn't estimated any potential financial impact, Leyne Milstein, director of finance, said in an e-mail.
Other cities are seeking new or higher payments in lieu of taxes from hospitals, universities and cultural institutions. In April, Boston sent requests to about 40 such nonprofit groups.
Paying Up
Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center has voluntarily paid the city $167,000 a year on property that, if privately owned, would raise $23 million in taxes, according to a December 2010 report by a mayoral task force. Under a new formula based in part on property value, it agreed to pay $753,000 in 2012 and $3.1 million within five years.
"No one is enthusiastic about paying anything that remotely resembles a tax," Eric Buehrens, interim president and chief executive officer of the hospital, said in a July 8 telephone interview. Each dollar contributed to the city, "is a dollar not going to something else," he said.
Providence, Rhode Island, is looking at the Boston model to raise more money from institutions such as Brown and Johnson & Wales universities and Rhode Island Hospital, whose expansions into the decaying Jewelry District created private jobs, encouraged retail and restaurants, and also took swaths of potentially revenue-producing land off the tax rolls.
Bankruptcy Danger
Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, in danger of bankruptcy after nearly defaulting on bond payments related to a failed incinerator project, was told by financial consultants this month to sell assets, cut jobs and seek more money from nonprofits, which together with state government own about half the property in the city.
Trenton has no four-year college campuses, major research hospitals or large company headquarters that often bring nonresidents into cities to spend money. The state and city identify New Jersey government as the largest employer in Trenton, although it's not clear how many work there. A 1992 study by the city and Thomas Edison State College said 23,400 state employees worked in the capital, and 15 percent were city residents subject to its taxes. New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development data from 2009 -- prior to state layoffs -- put the figure at 39,100 workers, including those in hospital and correctional institutions in suburban Trenton.
'Center of Business'
The 1992 study, commissioned to identify how the state's presence helped and harmed Trenton, urged the state to help create "festive shopping centers," increase aid and underwrite the fire and police departments. Few of those recommendations came to pass. Christie's administration last year halted work on an urban park behind the State House that was pitched by planners as a tourism draw, citing a lack of funds.
Mack, who took office last year, on July 6 announced a renewed effort to make Trenton "a center of business, culture, education, heritage-building and a prosperous, livable community," according to a statement. In a June 10 editorial in the Trentonian newspaper, he called on the state to pay its "fair share for the burdens placed on city resources."
In the near term, Trenton and other cities need help beyond the $10 million of state aid they must now share, Rousseau, Mack's consultant, said in a July 1 phone interview.
"Armageddon is that it goes down to basically nothing," he said.

NGamer has picked out its hottest games of 2008. Over the coming days, we're going to highlight the 127 games that will make your Nintendo consoles shine. Here's the first 20.
1) Mario Kart Wii (Q2 - April/June)
Nintendo never make the same Mario Kart twice, so we just know Ninty are still sitting on all the really good stuff.
We've seen bikes, mid-air spins and the familiar sight of plumbers and turtles thundering through the cascading Yoshi falls.
But what can it all mean? Will the aerial spins rely on SSX Blur-style wrist contort-ation? For our money (all £3.50 of it), it's got to be at least in part speed boost-related, because the thought of trying to 'snake' around tracks with the Wii controller has our aging arthritic joints creaking in fear.
As for the bikes, these wibbly-wobbly menaces must surely be the physical manifestation of the multiple control systems touted by our man Reggie.
The reappearance of golden oldie tracks shouldn't prove a concern - historically, old MK content doesn't come at the expense of new content, and we'd be blue shell on the final straight surprised if there wasn't a glorious Mario Galaxy-themed finale.
2) Samba De Amigo (Summer)
The Dreamcast was already getting throttled by the PS2's tentacles when Samba De Amigo flew out of the Sega nest in December 2000, but hopefully now it'll get the audience it deserves, on a console with two shaky-shaky controllers that can mimic the maraca. Ole!
That Sega have delegated developmental duties to Gearbox suggests it'll be fairly true to the original (as when they're not working on Brothers In Arms titles, Gearbox earn a crust by porting titles), albeit with an updated track list which we're sure will include the Mario theme at some point.
Downloadable extra songs were available even 'back in the day' on DC, so hopefully we'll get them, too.
If the remote and nunchuk work half as well as the original's mat and maracas, we're convinced that Sega's return to the Copa Cabassa will give you the shakes.
3) Sega Superstars Tennis (March)
So, we've got Sonic, AiAi the ball-monkey, Ulala of Space Channel 5, and Mr Grinny McGrinnington up there.
But who else are Sega going to pluck from their (let's be honest) pancake-thin batch of characters? You just know NiGHTS is going to roll up, and there's a shout for the likes of Toejam & Earl (possible), Flicky (why not?) and Alex Kidd (over Sega's dead bodies).
Whoever makes the cut, we're guaranteed a range of courts in settings more colourful than a docker's vocabulary.
Sumo Digital were responsible for the well received console versions of Virtua Tennis 3, you might recall, and this uses a modified version of VT's engine.
But Sumo haven't just scrawled over Tim Henman with their blue pen; it's very much its own game, packed with neat little touches (such as smashable TVs in Sonic's stage which combust to reveal unlockable extras).
We'd trust Sumo with our first-born children, so we've every confidence this will be a cracker.
4) Wii Music (2008)
This one's undergone more image changes than Madonna's pet chameleon, but it looks like this rhythm game collection's finally going to blend in with the likes of Guitar Hero.

Girls' Generation Yoona lands female lead role in Jang Keun-suk drama
10아시아최종수정 2011.09.19 10:18기사입력 2011.09.19 10:17
Girls' Generation member Yoona [SM Entertainment] |
Korean idol Yoona of Girls' Generation has been cast as the female lead in an upcoming TV series opposite Hallyu star Jang Keun-suk, according to the show's promoter Tree J. Company on Monday.
Tree J. announced in a press release that Yoona will portray a double -- one named Kim Yoon-hee (the mother) and another named Yoori (the daughter) in the series named "Love Rain" (tentative title) which is scheduled to air during the first half of next year.
"Love Rain" tells of the love between Seo In-ha (Jang) who will do anything for the woman he loves named Kim Yoon-hee during the 1970s. The drama will compare that love to relationships during the present time.
The new series, which will go into shoot at the end of this month, is a collaboration between famed director Yoon Suk-ho and scenarist Oh Soo-yeon who has worked on hit series "Autumn Tale" and "Winter Sonata."
"We decided to cast Yoona as both Kim Yoon-hee and Yoori since she has this sense of innocence and purity which can be found in both characters," director Yoon was quoted as saying.
"I'm excited to be making my comeback to the small screen through this role and I am honored to be working with director Yoon who has created works that I have enjoyed watching in the past," Yoona said in the press release.
Yoona made her debut in the nine-member female idol group Girls' Generation in 2007. Outside of her group activities, she has starred TV dramas "You are Destiny (KBS, 2008)" and "Cinderella Man (MBC, 2009)."

Lindsay Lohan Works the Fur On Set of 'Liz & Dick' (PHOTOS)
Lindsay Lohan showed her warm and fuzzy side while on set of her Lifetime movie Liz & Dick on Thursday afternoon.
The embattled actress, 25, channeled the late Dame Elizabeth Taylor as she stepped out in a furry hat and cream-colored dress.
Despite a brief bout with exhaustion this past week, Lilo seemed to be happy and healthy as she shot scenes in Los Angeles.
This isn't the first time Lilo has donned fur for her Liz Taylor role, and it isn't expected to be the last.
Celebuzz has been tracking the starlet on set, and we've compiled a round-up of her scene-stealing costumes in the gallery below. It's no wonder she's being hailed as LizLo while filming this TV movie.
On Friday, June 15, news hit that Lindsay was found unresponsive at a Marina del Ray hotel where she was shooting scenes for Liz & Dick. A rep for the starlet issued a statement in light of the news, telling Celebuzz, "Lindsay worked a grueling schedule the past few days. She was on set last night at 7 pm and worked through the night until 8 am this morning (Friday)."Following the health scare, Lohan was seen back on set that weekend.
Given all the photos we've seen of the actress as Liz Taylor, do you think she's pulling off the role? Let us know, below.

A physics-based helicopter game, with unique challenges in every level. From swatting killer bees to picking a path through the crush-o-tron, you won't face the same challenge twice. Each level demands that you think a little differently, rather than just learning to fly a little better. Done every level? Great, go for the 15 achievements available for those who can't get enough. Sorted all that? Cool, try it again with the alternative mouse control system!
Use cursor keys to fly around. Space deploys/retracts your winch.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
I love this game
Played it on a different website first but it's still fun and original. Boom!
Rated 5 / 5 stars
The music did not get old! That is a first for me.
I got stuck on the second tower. I beat the hell out of that tower and I can't get it to move. Wait... I am going to try the winch.
Great job.
Well done for playing for 20 levels, then remembering you have a winch. It's amazing how many people can't!

Comments about 10" Saw Blade Bag :
I use mine to take my blades to be sharpened. I get them back in this carrier instead of on a piece of cardboard wrapped in stretch wrap.
OK, I wonder how long it will hold up
By Chuck
from Newark Valley, NY
Compared to the Bosch 12" saw case, this one seems very lightweight and the zipper isn't rugged. Hopefully it will hold up.
Not many options

About Me Avid Do-It-Yourselfer
Not many storage options available for storing blades. This was the most compact option I could find. I didn't want to take up a lot of space for storing just three blades, this was the best option. If you spin the blade into the pockets you lessen the frequency of teeth catching onto the fabric.
Good idea but.....
By asdfjkl'
from Los Angeles, CA
Good idea but.....The teeth on the blades prevent them from slipping into the bag easy.....well almost impossible to slip in the bag. They get snagged on the pockets. When you get one tooth unhooked and start to slide it in, another one gets caught up. It took myself and one other person (to assist with holding the pockets open) a couple of minutes per blade (no joke) to put them in. Not worth the time and energy. Find another way to store your blades.

Slamdance Film Review: 'Vanishing Pearls: The Oystermen of Pointe a la Hache'
Focusing on the oyster fisherman of the small, largely African-American community of Pointe a la Hache, Louisiana, "Vanishing Pearls" traces a struggle against oppression and exploitation that culminates in the disastrous 2010 BP oil spill. Tyro documentarian Nailah Jefferson's presentation starts off strong, effectively bolstered by interviews with impacted oystermen, concerned environmentalists and assorted BP apologists. Certainly the sacrifice of a viable culture to corporate greed, though depressingly familiar, deserves documentation. But the film gets bogged down in details, losing momentum, clarity and conviction. Interviews highlighting the community's very real plight grow bathetic through repetition. Tube play seems indicated.
Fishermen stand at their boats' prows, surveying the Gulf of Mexico's shimmering expanse, and speak movingly of the sea's bounty and of a way of life enjoyed by their families for generations. The film's de facto protagonist, earnest community spokesperson Byron Encalade, recounts how the close-knit community triumphed over a history of "sharecropping" on white men's boats, racist laws that sought to destroy people's ability to deploy their own smaller craft, and the havoc wrought by Hurricane Katrina, only to be laid low by the catastrophic oil spill and BP's highly questionable response to it. Archival documents and imagery succinctly illustrate the area's ever-ascendant backstory while, following the government's lengthy post-spill moratorium on all fishing, dredges can only bring up nets full of dead oysters. Three years after the spill, the oyster beds still show no signs of regeneration.
The lion's share of Jefferson's documentary, some three-and-a-half years in the making, concerns the controversy surrounding the efficacy of BP's clean-up and the disbursement of compensatory funds by government-appointed administrator Kenneth Feinberg in the aftermath of the spill. Egregious instances of corporate manipulation and government mismanagement emerge, as do other key indicators such as a preliminary scientific report that was compiled in a mere 10 days (then instantly pronounced definitive by BP), the toxicity of chemicals used to disperse the oil, and evidence that much of the oil was merely driven to the ocean's bottom.
As long as the film concentrates on the shortchanging of local fishermen, BP's stonewalling and Feinberg's rationalizing doubletalk, Jefferson's documentary, while repetitive, remains compelling. But in following the inconsistencies and long delays in the compensation process -- which bankrupts the fishermen whose livelihood has disappeared and forces them to accept legally binding but woefully inadequate claims -- the film's throughline falters, lost in a flood of claims, counter-claims and corporate evasions.
D.A. Bullock's evocative lensing, as proactive in lyrical fishing mode as in talking-head confrontations, adds greatly to "Pearls"' luster.

I have reached a point of frustration so am coming to the experts. I am looking for the Rangemaster Induction Professional without much luck. Can anyone please lead me to the US vendor. The ones listed on the Rangemaster website - Hearthland and Aga-Marvel - do not have the Rangemaster. Should I settle to waiting a few years until this range (cooker - love that term) is available in the US? Any help is great;y appreciated. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Aga-Marvel and Aga-Heartland Appliances are the North American division of Aga-Rangemaster, the UK-based parent company. (In the US, the brands also include La Cornue and Northland.) While various "Rangemaster" stoves are being sold over here, the company branded them as "Aga." So, if you don't see an Aga induction stove here, you won't find another U.S. vendor that would carry the induction stove you are looking for. line. neither Aga Marvel nor Heartland Appliances have any induction products. At some point last year, I ran across a "Heartland" induction cooktop but it was sold by "Heartland Food Service" and was a rebranded Fagor/Brandt unit. |
That is the answer I expected, but I am still disappointed. Thanks so much. |

Cherry Picking for Kids
Of all of the many, many fruits that we love in the summertime, it's hard to find one that's universally more satisfying that a cherry.

"capability" dimension, doing includes a range of activities and abilities, including hands-on tool skills and, most significantly, design skills. The ITEA Standards for Technological Literacy suggests that K–12 students should understand the attributes of design and be able to demonstrate design skills. Using an iterative design process (see Figure 3-1) to identify and solve problems provides insights into how technology is created that cannot be gained any other way.1 The problem-solving nature of design, with its cognitive processes of analysis, comparison, interpretation, evaluation, and synthesis, also encourages higher order thinking.
Assessing technology-related capability is difficult, however. For one thing, little is known about the psychomotor processes involved. In addition, the cost of developing and administering assessments that involve students in design activities tends to be prohibitive, at least for large-scale assessments, because of the time and personnel required. However, the committee believes there are some promising approaches to measuring design and problem-solving skills that avoid some of these time and resource constraints. (These approaches are discussed in detail in Chapter 7.)
Many attempts have been made to develop standardized instruments for capturing design behavior in educational settings. Custer, Valesey, and Burke (2001) created the Student Individualized Performance Inventory (SIPI), which tests four dimensions: clarification of the problem and design; development of a plan; creation of a model/prototype; and evaluation of the design solution. A student's performance in each dimension is rated as expert, proficient, competent, beginner, or novice. SIPI has been used several times for research purposes (Rodney Custer, Illinois State University, personal communication, May 5, 2005).
Problem solving in a technological context is the focus of the American College Testing (ACT) WorkKeys applied technology assessment, which is intended to help employers compare an individual's workplace skills with the skills required for certain technology-intensive jobs. The 32 multiple-choice test items present real-world problems ranging in difficulty from simple to highly complex. Sample items on the ACT website (http://www.act.org/workkeys/assess/tech/) require test takers to

Bunked beds work great for children of all ages, with the younger of the two sleeping safely on the bottom bunk. This room's simple design and unisex color palette are ideal for a brother/sister duo.
Allow your children to express their individuality. These reversible duvet covers allow for each child to have a separate look, yet keep the room feeling cohesive and balanced.
In this kids' room design, built-in shelving offers the illusion of privacy. Each child has space to call her own, yet they are close enough for the pair to still enjoy each other's company.
This room shows another divided space-within-a-space. The sleeping quarters are designated to one side of the room while the play area is delineated by an oversized polka-dotted rug. This room satisfies a bedroom's dual functions: rest and recreation.
Practice duplicity. Two bean bags provide seating for both kids to enjoy quiet time in their reading nook. When not in use, stack them in the corner or under the beds when floor space is at a premium.
Go big, even in a small space. These metal architectural letters make a huge impact in this contemporary, nautical-themed room. Smaller pieces would make the room feel cluttered.
No need to modify the decor when a younger child shares room with older sibling — just make needed adjustment to the furnishings. A set of antique beds are the perfect fit in this charming girls' room. Notice that bed rails (in the same color) have been added to the bed on the left to satify the needs of the junior occupant.
Even if you have enough bedrooms to give each child his or her own room, consider using one room as a shared bedroom, the other a playroom. Most children enjoy sharing a room and the added bonus of having a separate space reserved for play.

The young tusker, which had got separated from its herd at Advangi forest in Nelamangala taluk and trampled two people to death earlier in the week, returned to the forest early on Friday.
It had killed two persons on July 30 and August 1 in Chitradurga and Tumkur districts. The animal, which was near Mookanahallipatna tank in Tumkur district on Thursday, started to retrace its steps around 6.30 p.m. and reached Advangi forest on Friday morning.
Assistant Conservator of Forests Devaraj said: "A team of six members from the Forest Department will be sent to Advangi forest to help the officers and staff there." He said he had informed them about the elephant in their range.
As there are elephants in Savandurga forest in Magadi taluk, the tusker may go there, he added. The tusker has returned in the same route in which it came to Tumkur
and Chitradurga districts.

Sinner: New York Times TV reporter Jacques Steinberg, who begins his piece about 60 Minutes baffled by the runaway ratings success of "a news program that reports regularly from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan" and "devotes nearly 20 minutes to an arcane underpinning of the financial crisis known as credit-default swaps." (Actually, that piece about the economic meltdown was a masterful example of how to make an intricate subject understandable to everyone.)
Eventually Steinberg does manage to acknowledge that the "biggest factor in the increased popularity of "60 Minutes" this fall may be that it has redoubled its efforts to provide a deep, substantive exploration of the most pressing news of the moment." But then he goes on to display an almost pristine ignorance of all of the show's greatest hits–including Steve Kroft's fabulous interview with Obama braintrusters David Axelrod, David Plouffe, Robert Gibbs, and Anita Dunn, recorded hours after the candidate claimed victory in Grant Park–and broadcast just two weeks ago.
For the record, here are some other reasons the show has soared in the last twelve months:
- Lara Logan's balls-of-steel interview with Pakistani president Pervez Musharraf immediately after the assassination of Benazir Bhutto.
- Bob Simon's shining profile of Venezuelan conductor Gustavo Dudamel, the most electric personality to light up the classical music scene since Leonard Bernstein.
- Scott Pelley's devastating piece (produced by Henry Schuster) about Remote Area Medical, a group of volunteer doctors and nurses that was formed to provide free health care in the Amazon and the rest of the developing world—and now finds the largest need for its services in the United States of America.
- Steve Kroft's evisceration of one of the Iraq war's architects, former undersecretary of defense Douglas Feith. Great moments included Feith's inability to remember key points in his own book—the one he was on air to promote.
- Scott Pelley's wrenching portrait of German citizen Murat Kurnaz, an innocent victim of American "extreme rendition," and another great piece by Pelley (produced by Shawn Efran)—a
profile of Kirk Johnson, a young American who has stepped into the breach left by the Bush administration to secure visas for hundreds of former Iraqi employees of the United States left stranded by our government in Baghdad.
