It's easy to get in a color rut in beading. Sometimes we don't even realize it! This past Christmas I wanted to make some pink earrings for someone who loves pink. I discovered I had no pink beads at all in my collection. Instead, I had probably every shade of blue you could imagine. I had no idea my bead stash was so unbalanced. So my color tip is a simple one: pick out a color you've never worked with--one that you might even hate--and design something! (And as always, I'd love to see it if you do!)--Michelle Mach, Beading Daily editor
Tip 1: Experiment with the Same Colors, Different Placement
Beading Daily reader Elizabeth Cummins shared her experiments with using the same palette of colors in four different beaded designs. Notice how the colors look different depending upon their placement. Placing the same green beads next to blue or brown does make a difference! Try this with the same number of beads in different colors. Then try it with one color being the dominant one. This tip isn't just for seed bead folks. Try stringing several variations of a bracelet with the same 3 or 4 colors of beads and notice the difference!
Tip 2: Start with Classic Color Combinations
That first tip is great if you already have a color palette to use. But what if you don't have one? This next tip on color comes from beading instructor Laura Andrews. Laura will be teaching the River Net (pictured below) and Pearl Gate classes at Bead Expo Portland in March.
"Put your own spin on a classic color combination. For example, the innocent exuberance of primary colors red, blue and yellow can gain the regal sophistication of burgundy, navy, and topaz. Test color combinations by viewing a few beads of each color in your hand in natural light."--Laura Andrews
The "natural light" part of this tip is really key when working with color! I've been guilty of occasionally beading in poor light and later finding some odd beads in what I thought was a monochromatic piece.
Tip 3: Combine Light and Dark Shades
If you're used to creating monochromatic pieces, this final tip from Beverly Gilbert might help you stretch and grow as a designer. Beverly will be teaching Cornucopia of Gems (pictured below) and Wanderlust Bracelet at BeadFest Miami in April.
"When working with color, include light and dark shades of that color into your beadwork to add depth and movement. Doing the same thing with all of the colors in your piece will help blend the colors together and make your bead work glow!"--Beverly Gilbert
I haven't tried this exact tip, but I have sorted strands of gemstone beads by shade. (Watermelon tourmaline is especially fun.) Designing a necklace with a light shade at one end and darker shades at the other is an easy way to add visual interest to your design.
If you'd like more ideas about working with color, look for the "Color Works" column by Margie Deeb in every issue of Step by Step Beads.
Contest Reminder: Have you sent in your organization tip for the Beader's Stash Contest? Deadline is next Friday!
Michelle Mach is the editor of Beading Daily. Ironically, even though she normally loves playing with color, this weekend she has an ivory/gray/beige necklace to finish up.

Nordenergi response to ENTSO-E public consultation on Ten-Year Network Development Plan (TYNDP) 2014
Infrastructure creates options. Compared to the vast sums expected to be invested in electricity generation, the infrastructure investments, however large, are small in comparison. But as long as the European power systems are fundamentally different, the option values created by building new infrastructure must be accounted for. In the Baltic and Nordic Sea regions, all bidding areas have their own characteristics. This fundamental truth makes it more likely that there will be too little infrastructure built than too much. Read the entire response.

The Varizoom VZ-PRO-L is a lens remote control system for DV camcorders. A true variable speed and manual focus remote control, the VZ-PRO/L utilizes the Control L (LANC) remote connector to control almost any DV camcorder including the Canon XL-1, Sony VX-1000 and the DSR-200A. Now for the first time, owners of these camcorders can use jib arms, tripods and have the same type of control found on cameras costing thousands more. Combination rocker and speed control dial allows you to vary speeds in a single movement - smoothly from a slow crawl to fast and then slow again. Also features manual focus control, universal tripod/crane mounts and a record light indicator.
- Precision variable speed control of camera zooms. Go from slow to fast and then slow again in a single smooth movement.
- Push-button manual focus is conveniently at your fingertips so you can adjust focus functions precisely.
- Has an LED recording indicator.
- When the camera automatically turns off you can push a button and you're back in standby mode. (Wake up switch).
- All in one, heavy duty, clamping system offers exceptional control over both camera and tripod functions simultaneously.

Overview - Revelation 13 | |
1 | A beast rises out of the sea with seven heads and ten horns, to whom the dragon gives his power. |
11 | Another beast comes out of the earth; |
14 | causes an image to be made of the former beast, |
15 | and that men should worship it, |
16 | and receive his mark. |
Revelation 13:1 (King James Version)
And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.

Knowing what works for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is just as important as knowing what doesn't. In fact, some of the tactics you're using might even exacerbate your symptoms.
Whether it's techniques that you've tried yourself or others have employed, below are seven surefire ways to unsuccessfully cope with ADHD. Plus, at the bottom you'll find techniques that actually do work.
1. Unsuccessful strategy: Criticizing. Individuals with ADHD usually already have a sinking self-esteem and hold negative beliefs about themselves. So when loved ones or others criticize them, it chips away at their self-worth even more.
"Remember, it's not that the person with ADHD doesn't want to do something – they just can't," said Stephanie Sarkis, Ph.D, a psychotherapist and author of several books on ADHD, including 10 Simple Solutions to Adult ADD.

ABSOLUTELY true! Sometimes it really helps to see things like this in print. Often we KNOW it but can not tell ourselves so seeing it in black and white helps a lot.
Very true. I only want to add some perspectives on alternative treatments. While medication is warranted in some cases, in less severe conditions one is better off using natural remedies that do not address the symptoms, but actually train the brain to work faster and with better equilibrium between the left and right side of the brain.
I wrote these articles specifically to demonstrate that taking very addictive medication is NOT the only way to treat ADD/ADHD symptoms.
Any thoughts on adhd an bipolar illness that generated the adhd?

We have finally started building. The foundation is almost complete, so the framing should be soon. However, we are having trouble deciding on the windows in the Great Room. They started out as 2 fixed French Doors on the side of the Great Room facing the entry. On the opposite side there was 1 fixed French Door and one operable French Door. The drawing shows double casement windows on both sides, but I think we are going to lean to 2 single casement windows on either side to make it a bit more private. There will also be a door on the side that is facing the garage/landscaped area. There will be a small sideporch on that side. Do you think this will look okay? Any ideas? |

To be able understand how it would look or if it is functionally appropriate I would need to see the entire floor plan, a site plan and the elevations. |

Reno raises a good point about what's needed to be able to understand the design and offer suggestions. Here are some general thoughts, based on what we can see (and surmise) from only the plan above: --the room is large, and thus the glazing and doors should be in proportion to the space, i.e., large room means large windows; A better assessment is possible if you post the other needed drawings. Plus we need to know the ceiling height. Good luck on your project. PS: Does your lighting plan really represent how the room will be furnished and used? It looks to be a very generic lighting layout with no consideration of furnishings, uses or type of use/occupancy. I would never hang a chandelier in a family or great room, unless there is a large table planned for that exact location. |
This room is 18' wide by 26' long. 9' walls vaulted. This is a hip roof. Roughly 20' vaulted ceilings. Our local architect who didn't design this plan, recommended 2 double casement windows on each side of the room opposite each other. The problem with this room for us is that it doesn't allow for very much privacy because it is in the front of the home. Therefore, we were going to make the windows smaller in order to achieve a more cozy atmosphere. One friend who has built many homes said that if we went with big windows, then it would be like a large sun room with a fireplace in the middle. This room will only get early morning sun. The chandelier will not go in the middle of the room. It will go over the dining table. We haven't finished this drawing yet. It has also been suggested that we use several of the small architectural windows like the one in the front next to the fireplace, but that almost seems to small. The wall facing the entry looks strange to us with those large windows facing it. I am attaching the first floor plan. The door in the Great Room will lead out to a sideporch and the garage doors have been moved to the left side. |
This is the original front elevation. As you can see in the floor plan, the garage doors have been moved. There is now a window on that garage wall. Those are the only things that have changed about the front except for in the guest room, there is now a window that matches the one on the garage instead of the french doors. |
Lastly, this home is now on a 32 in. crawlspace. |
Here are a few windows that have been suggested for the wall facing the entry. The small windows at the top left. |

But where are the elevations for THIS house YOU'RE building not suggestions or other renderings? |
I posted it above. Where it says "this is the original front elevation". The only changes to it are the garage doors that have been moved to the side, a double casement window is now in place of the garage doors, and the french doors on the far right guest room have been changed to a double casement window just like the one on the garage front. The reason I posted the other elevations, is to show the windows that we are thinking of using on the right side of the great room facing the entry. |
This is the left side elevation. It shows the Great Room with 2 sets of French Doors (1 fixed) that we will be replacing with a single door and some other type of window/s. There will also be a small side porch attached to this side. |
Let me reiterate.. The above is the original left elevation. Again, the window that you see on the garage is now in the front, and there are garage doors in place of that window. |
Hmmm.. And, where will your guests drive up? I have a concern about having doors to the great room (esp on 1 door) from the driveway when you can't see the front door from the driveway! You'll be getting packages, etc dropped to your great room french door because that is easier for the ups guy than walking all the way around your great room protuberance to the front door....UNLESS, you have a secondary driveway that guests/delivery persons will mainly use. For that reason, I'd not put a door there. I might put a series of 2 doors there (because, that usually cues that that isn't the main door location). Or, I'd stick with windows. The reason they all want to see YOUR real elevation is because it sounds a lot like you plan to make changes to the windows... but usually windows have some common sizing throughout the front elevation. You can't (don't want to) change windows in 1 room of the front of your house without consideration to the dimensions of the other windows on the front of the house (which then affects windows in other rooms of the house, etc). Therefore, your window choices for the great room should be restricted to those that "match" or are consistent with the rest of the house. |
krikhall, I hear what you are saying, but it seems that the example elevations that I posted above don't have all matching windows. They have cool architecture going on with various window sizes. I do have that one small architectural window in the front by the chimney. Maybe we could play off of that. I will get an updated front elevation up asap. We have had a time with this house. Ist architect wanted as much or more money than the original houseplans cost to make a few revisions, so we went with a local architect who was hourly. He changed a few things for the floor plan, but didn't do exterior elevations. We are working off of the original plans with the framer to make those changes. I called the original architect who said it would look fine to use the garage window that you see above on the front elevation, and to use the same one on the guest room (which is the far room to the right). So if you can imagine that, great. If not, I will post my cut and paste copy for you to see. |
This is the front as is so far. The windows on the garage and guest room may or may not have shutters, depending on what looks best. I know we can add them if we don't like the look without them. The dormer above the garage is now a shed dormer. I am concerned about adding a small side porch as well. My wife wants it, so that she can sit somewhere and watch the kids play on the driveway and ride their bikes, without having to go out of the garage and sit there. I was told a small shed porch would look good. |
Sorry for the blue look. I took this outside while I was working. Here is one that is a bit better, but not much. Hopefully it will work well enough in order to help answer my question. |
Hmmm . . . I kind of think that if you want a room to be private, you don't build it sticking out way into your front yard. I agree that for a large room, you need large windows. I think I'd do this: - Nix all French doors. |

mrspete - Since it is our family room, yes we do want to make it more private. It just happens to be in the front of the house. BTW all of the windows are casement, not double hung. palimpsest - thanks for your comments and pictures. We had fun sitting around the table cutting and pasting with our window schedule. What we came up with was that we would change the garage and guest bedroom to triple casement windows. On the left side of the Great Room we are going with 2 single casement evenly spaced apart and on the right side we are going with 3 small windows like the one on the front. They are evenly spaced from the left side. That will allow for privacy, but also allow for light on that side. It also gives more space on that interior wall for furniture, pictures, etc. It may seem odd, but it actually looked really good. The right elevation has 3 small windows on it as well. Not sure if we are going to go with shutters or not. We are going with a lighter brick and bronze windows with dark trim and a dark brown shingle roof. There are lots of timber accents on this home. |
We made one last change..... On the left side of the GR we have 3 single casement 2046 windows and on the opposite wall we will have 2 single casement 2046 directly opposite the 2 on the left side. The reason we went for 3 on the left side was to have one near where we will have a dining table. It will be facing the entry. The garage and guest room windows will be triple casement. One opinion that someone gave us is that you do not have to do any shutters. (The exterior will be tumbled brick - a stone color) Another is that if we did the double casement windows on the garage and guest, then we should do shutters. Here is my question: Can you have some windows with shutters and some without? If so, which ones would you do? I don't have the right elevation but it has 3 single casement windows like the ones on the side of the GR evenly spaced in the middle of the brick wall. There is a med. size shed dormer above them. I know they would look really good with the single shutter. There are also 2 other windows exactly like those on the back in the laundry room and MB closet. |
- Posted by palimpsest (My Page) on Fri, Aug 23, 13 at 19:24
I would not put shutters on any window/s that would not be covered if the shutters were closed. That excludes almost any window but a single window. Also, unless the casements are inswinging casements, shutters aren't realistic because there is no way to manually open and close them from inside if the window opens out. |
Thank you palimpsest! |
yes. i just read a blog entry by bobby mcalpine a couple of days ago. it was on shutters. like most great architects, he insists on shutters being operable, so only on a single window in most cases. he also mentioned that if it's a tiny window, put only one shutter that is the same size as the window, rather than 2 shutters half the size. i love that look. i love your house!! we are doing a Tudor look that was inspired by a Cullingan Abraham house. But ours is on a much smaller and modest scale than yours and the Abraham inspiration. If you like McAlpine, you'll enjoy these pics http://www.houzz.com/photos/762827/Lincoln-St-traditional-exterior-chicago http://www.houzz.com/photos/669643/Vine-Street-traditional-exterior-chicago http://www.houzz.com/photos/653672/Hampton-traditional-exterior-chicago http://www.houzz.com/photos/762830/Lincoln-St-traditional-exterior-chicago http://www.houzz.com/photos/653676/Hampton-traditional-spaces-chicago http://www.houzz.com/photos/3514902/Blue-Ash-traditional-exterior-chicago |
Thank you bmh4796. Just checked out Cullingan Abraham - very nice! Yes, McAlpines pics on houzz are great. If you have time, go to Dungan Nequette on houzz. Great stuff. One more question - We changed the double casements with shutters on the front to triple casements w/o shutters. Does this house need the shutters? Exterior will be a stoney brick with timber accents and a brown shingle roof. |

i don't think you put shutters on triples because realistically they couldn't be operable. i think the house will lookfine without them, and triples will fill in the wall space nicely. |

In 1851 Leo Tolstoy enlisted in the Russian army and was sent to the Caucasus to help defeat the Chechens. During this war a great Avar chieftain, Hadji Murád, broke with the Chechen leader Shamil and fled to the Russians for safety. Months later, while attempting to rescue his family from Shamil's prison, Hadji Murád was pursued by those he had betrayed and, after fighting the most heroic battle of his life, was killed.
Tolstoy, witness to many of the events leading to Hadji Murád's death, set down this story with painstaking accuracy to preserve for future generations the horror, nobility, and destruction inherent in war.
Azar Nafisi is a visiting professor at the Johns Hopkins University's Paul H. Nitze School of Advanced International Studies and author of Reading Lolita in Tehran. She won a fellowship at Oxford University and has taught literature and aesthetics at the University of Tehran, the Free Islamic University, and Allameh Tabatabai University in Iran. She lives in Washington, D.C.

That's where Allen Susser met Igor a year and a half ago A at the back door of his North Dade restaurant, Chef Allen's. Dressed in a loose baggy shirt and green trousers and speaking with a heavy Russian accent, Igor confided to the critically acclaimed chef that he was in the possession of caviar from Astrakhan, one of the premier harvesting regions in all of Russia.
"I get all sorts of Russians at the back door, saying, 'Will you buy my caviar?' Susser says with evident glee. "I say, 'Open it up, let's taste your wares!' We sit, we haggle, and we taste caviar." If the caviar is good, Susser buys it. Igor's caviar, says Susser, was excellent. So good that Susser became one of the Russian's regular customers, and he's touting Igor's eggs on the New Year's Eve menu at Chef Allen's.
While Chef Allen's habitues might be surprised to learn of the clandestine origins of their "Black Market Osetra Caviar Sundae," proprietors of some of South Florida's most fashionable stores, along with suppliers to some of the nation's most exclusive restaurants, describe a world market of caviar as byzantine as it is bizarre.
Mitchell Thal, part owner of Epicure Market in Miami Beach, is reluctant to describe his caviar transactions in detail. He'll only say that his store purchases Russian caviar "from the Caspian Sea on private arrangement from individual importers." Like Susser, he is occasionally accosted by mysterious merchants of dubious nationality, hawking their high-priced wares. "They come in and it's almost like a drug deal," says Thal, mimicking the peddlers: "'Pssssst! You want to buy some caviar?' There are many, many disreputable dealers. Anyone from airline stewards to so-called friends of friends who will actually try to sell you caviar out of the trunk of their car."
Thal says his practice is to send such dealers on their way. His own Russian connections date back to the mid-1980s, during the salad days of perestroika, when a middleman hooked him up with his current supplier. "We had a blind tasting, like you do with wine, and a number of customers and staff participated," Thal remembers. "We unanimously selected the one that we carry."
Back then, the Soviet Union and Iran had a monopoly on caviar production in the Caspian Sea, home to 90 percent of the world population of sturgeon, the prehistoric fish whose roe constitutes the creamy black delicacy. A handful of smugglers worked as freelance caviar suppliers to Europe and the United States, but the black market didn't really explode until the early Nineties, after the Soviet Union's disintegration, which splintered the Caspian region into five independent states (Russia, Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan, and Iran) and two autonomous Russian republics (Dagestan and Kalmyk).
While Russia, Iran, and Azerbaijan theoretically control the caviar market through state enterprises that oversee fishing, packaging, and exporting, in practice any fisherman can hook a sturgeon, salt the eggs in his bathtub, and peddle them in the West for $15 to $50 per ounce. In fact, poaching had become so rampant by mid-1992 that Russian fishery officials began predicting the sturgeon's imminent extinction.
As supplies dwindle, caviar importers are increasingly desperate for top-quality roe. "Nobody has beluga but us," crows Eric Sobol, vice president of the New York-based Caviarteria, one of the nation's biggest caviar distributors. (Caviarteria charges $645 for fourteen ounces of beluga, $319 for osetra, and $259 for sevruga. At Epicure, the prices are $225 for a seven-ounce tin of beluga. Osetra goes for $125, sevruga for $98.50.) Sobol denies that his company buys caviar on the black market, which he disdains as "Polish guys smuggling caviar in their suitcases." But he's vague about how Caviarteria has managed to procure what he says are the best stocks of the Russian state. "It would be foolish of us to divulge too much information," he insists. He does, however, hint at complicated backroom arrangements. "The only thing that's happened [to the caviar industry] as a result of the breakup of the Soviet Union is that now, in the actual plant, you deal with the production manager, the factory managers....Everybody wants to get into the act."
For Susser, that sounds like too many hands fondling the extremely perishable merchandise. He says he'll stick with Igor's supply, because he knows exactly what he's getting. "I can see it, smell it, taste it," he explains. "If I even have a slight doubt, I can turn it away."
A quick survey of some of Miami's high-end restaurants reveals that other local chefs are more reticent about their contacts with salesman like Igor. Mark Militello, proprietor of Mark's Place in North Miami and Mark's Las Olas in Fort Lauderdale, says he relies exclusively on a Maine-based importing firm. "You don't try to pick up a Mercedes at a used-car dealer," the restaurateur scoffs. But Pascal Oudin, head chef at the Grand Bay, admits that if he personally tests the caviar's quality and finds it meets his strict standards, he'll buy it from an unknown dealer.

I've a door that suddenly refuses to open using remotes. I've changed batteries, done the "program the tranmitter/receiver steps by pushing both buttons until the LED starts flashing again but its a no go. I can see the the LED flash on the receiver whenever I press the button on either remote so I think its trying to talk but the door never budges, light bulb never blinks, etc. The wired in controller on garage wall works fine. Any ideas would be appreciated. Apparently Sears has no online document system to help troubleshoot or learn a thing about their products that I've been able to find. Thanks, dalila |

dalila first of all make sure the lock function hasn't been toggled on at your wall control. If the small light in the button is flashing press and hold the lock button for about 3 seconds. If the light quits flashing that was probably your problem and your remotes should work. |

The response from Nibco was this: "Due to the passing of the National Lead free law, "leaded" valves could not be used in new construction or repair after Jan 3. The valve is not dangerous, it just contains more lead than is currently allowed for new construction and repair." So my thought is, then it's okay to ingest even tiny amounts of lead over time, just like the Romans and their aqua ducts? I don't think that worked out well for their mental health. It's ok to be slowwwwwwly poisoned over time. Just so long as it's not all at once. Hmmmm. Somehow, I am not really fine with that. |
Take a good look at your T&P Valve.. It also is brass and contains lead. Bet that it is made by WATTS Regulator..lol I worked for Watts Regulator in the foundry that made brass ball valves, T&P valves and other brass fittings. The lead is added to the molten brass to soften it for machining. The lead added was a small amount and added by the pound. We added aprox. 20 lbs of lead to each 2500 lbs of brass. Zinc was also added to "kill" the oxygen that could cause bad castings. Nibco brass fittings are made in Mexico and Poland mostly. And are aimed more for the gas business (natural and LP) for home use. So who knows what the lead percentage may be in their products. If you are concerned about the lead. Check out Apollo Stainless Steel Ball Valves. They cost quite a bit more but are well worth the investment in the long run. |
OTOH, since you don't normally consume water that comes from the HOT faucet, this one installation shouldn't be a health concern. JM$.02W |
- Posted by jakethewonderdog (My Page) on Mon, Aug 4, 14 at 11:17
Okay... so the regulations for lead have tightened up. I think it started in Californian and Vermont, and then Maryland. Since manufacturers don't want to make special inventory for a few states, they ask the feds to apply it nationwide. This has happened also with things like car emissions, light bulb efficiency (yep, those efficiency standards that conservatives go on about were requested by manufactures to eliminate piecemeal standards by states). This is a good thing since plumbing parts can be in domestic water supply infrastructure for 100 years or more - it's good to raise the standards. That said, it doesn't mean that you need to jerk out the existing. If you still have lead pipe - that should go for sure...but you don't need to pull your pre-2014 brass valves and such. The truth is that the old valves might even meet the new regs, or be very close... but the burden of certifying them isn't worth it for the manufacturer. Keep in mind that smoking, obesity, and sedentary lifestyle are the things that are far more likely to poison you in long term - not a very tiny amount of lead in brass valve body. |
uh, ohmmm - see all that copper pipe you have ? All of those joints were soldered and I'll bet you a donut it has lead in it. So, you're not escaping it. |

text: Hi. I am 29, knocking on 30's door, and I had a checkup last week. I usually have "low" blood pressure usually in the 90/60 range. My doctor said my BP was 200/100. I had to go back few days later, and it was 150/90. She asked me to monitor it for a week and bring the log back to her. I am scared because I've never had this problem before. My systolic number this week has not been below 132 and I have had diastolic numbers in the 102-105 region. I have gradually gained weight over the past couple of years and have lost a few pounds here and there, only to gain it back. I had blood work done last week, and everything checked out okay. I also have an extreme amount of stress (or maybe I just have a hard time handling it). I know I probably caused this with the stress and worrying about every little thing. I'm having a difficult time losing weight, which I know would help the BP a bit. I'm not sure if I'm going to be put on BP meds when I go back or not. Is anyone else dealing with high BP, trying to lose weight, manage stress? Is there any medication (besides the obvious BP meds) that might help with the stress and weight loss that I can talk to my doctor about? For anyone who has had to start BP meds, do they make you feel bad? Have they helped with weight loss? I was really scared at this new finding for me. I know high BP is the "silent killer," and I had no clue I had it. Thanks for any input.

Hi, I was thinking of adding some raspberries or other fruit to a 10 gallon batch of American Wheat I have in our conical (just brewed last night). I know the wheat doesn't usually go to secondary so I was hoping for some advice. A few questions: 1. Should we drop the trub after primary is complete (putting it into secondary) and then add fruit? If so, how long should it stay in secondary with the fruit? 2. How much fruit is good for a 10 gallon batch? We don't want a huge amount of raspberry but a nice hint. 3. For previous batches we used priming sugar in the bottles. Thinking of adding the sugar directly to the conical (still need to do some research on this!) Will the addition of fruit affect the amount of priming sugar? Just had a thought! We have some of the Mr. Beer containers. Could we rack the beer on the fruit in one of those as the secondary? That way we could have 1 with raspberry and 1 with cranberry or whatever...I can't think of a downside right now except for brief introduction of oxygen but it would be a quick fill with the valve. I'd love to get a few different flavors from the batch I appreciate the help, much thanks!
Hmmm...no responses?!? Well we went with the Mr. Beer method. Added around 14 ounces for about a gallon and a half. We couldn't find the canned fruits so went with frozen. The cranberry was really, really tart! The cranberries weren't sweet. It wasn't awful but we will probably add fruit at a different time or try the canned stuff. Haven't tried the raspberry yet. On a happier note, the IPA we made after this brew came out really good Have a Falcon IPA in the fermenter now!
I'm pretty new at this but I am making a clone of one of my Dave and it called for fruit added. So what my guy told me was once primary seemed done I added about 6 pounds of fruit puree and waited about 2 weeks for that to settle in. It's bottled now and should be ready in another week or so, I'll let you know how mine urns out.
Cool, let me know how it turns out! I forgot to say that we did puree the fruit and left it for about 2 weeks. We used to add the fruit in primary when we used Mr. Beer but not sure about the conical. We'll play around with it

Hi Pete,
Upon doing my research for a new bed for my 5yr old I noticed
you recommend the above noted bed. Do you happen to know of anywhere
in Canada (specifically Ontario) that carries this mattress? We were pointed
in the direction of a sealy devin eurotop firm mattress for him but I am
not happy with that choice as it has memory foam although they try to tell
me it is soy based and no chemicals I am hesitant.
Thanks for your help. Melissa
Hi Melissa,
We carry a very nice line of latex products from Natura. The lesser expensive hybrids that they offer use a plant based poly foam. All of their products are chemical free and everything we have from them is delivered free throughout Canada, and with no sales tax. They have some very nice children's mattresses that are all natural. Here's a link to them. You can order on line.

And we love it even more that one was opened last week right on my office's doorstep at Victoria Station. The Victoria is but a small shop, but I have been told that there is one opening in Kingston covering two floors. Of course I had to check it out and boy, I definitely felt like the proverbial kid in a sweet shop. My flashy coloured shopping basked quickly started filling up with ontbijtkoek, boterkoeken, eierkoeken and paprika crisps. I found my favourite Jip en Janneke lollies pops, olive oil, nutty party mix and lots more.
But HEMA is not all about food. They also sell great kitchen and bathroom ware, make-up, underwear, accessories and office supplies.
It may sound like a random collection of stuff, but it's cool stuff. And when the Kingston shop opens, do go and check it out. It will all make sense then.

We've heard your feedback and are continuing to build a better Slickdeals. Click here to check out the updated site.
Nice, Ireland info will definitely be handy. I like the sound of the B&B. I can eat a lot more food than you'd guess by looking at me.
I'm guessing 4 nights in Rome at this point, could change a bit though. I like your idea there as well. Will definitely check out the site, thanks! |
Alright, I think we have our outline laid out, just the last leg is giving us a bit of trouble.
Croatia to Romania (almost any city to any city would do) end of May/start of June. Airfare seems to be at least $190, more than double most of our other flights. There are supposed to be trains for under $100 but the websites for them are largely broken or nearly impossible to navigate and I can't seem to actually find anything. Anyone have ideas? |
http://forum.raileurop "Happiness and depression are both feelings, just like joy and anger. It's not feelings that give us problems. It's what we do with them that makes the difference." "When I was 5 years old, my mom always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down happy. They told me I didn't understand the assignment and I told them they didn't understand life." "Worry gives a small thing a big shadow." |
Yeah I think I eventually figured out the train which looks like it will be around $120. I think we'll try that.
I'm also curious what people think getting a rail pass. It looks like about $1000, but we're going to be doing a fair bit of traveling within countries and my very rough guess put us around $200 for Ireland, Italy, Germany, Croatia and $100 for Italy and Romania for $800 total meaning we should skip the pass. Anyone have ideas on if that sounds right or not? Also, what about renting a car in Ireland or possibly even other countries? Thoughts on how much of a hassle it would be (parking and paperwork etc) and whether it would be cost effective (we can get the rental cheap but gas looks like $8 per gallon?) Probably 3 days in Dublin, and a week going around the south and west and back to Dublin. Edit: My guess for Ireland for example is $200 for total car expenses if my girlfriend understood it right and I didn't miss anything on the math. If that's about the same as total train tickets do you experienced travelers think it would be worth it to get a car? Last edited by Fare; 04-24-2014 at 05:45 PM.. |
If you do- GET THE INSURANCE.
From my driving experiences in Europe (not Ireland specifically, but elsewhere in the UK and continental europe) the roads are narrow, city streets even worse... and maintenance of roads isn't awesome either. (Also- if you can drive a stick that'll make renting significantly cheaper- they charge a decent bit more for automatic rentals) On a trip to Scotland last year for example we rented and another couple we traveled with rented too. we got the insurance, they didn't. End of trip we just turn our car in.... theirs there was apparently a small dent you had to get under the car to see- and they got a $1300 bill from the rental company. As to if it's a good idea or not- depends on the area. Scotland for example we didn't rent one in Edinburgh, mostly it was walkable and there's decent bus service otherwise. But we did need one for driving around to much of the rest of the country- some major towns have train service to center of town but that's about it. So I'd imagine you don't need one for Dublin, but will want one for the rest of Ireland if you're traveling around it a fair bit. As to the rail pass- that's just math. Add up the cost of taking the individual trains you're SURE you plan to take... and separately consider ones you MIGHT take (ie a day trip you may or may not do)... if combined they're less than the rail pass, skip the pass.... if they're more only with the optional trips included then you have to consider how likely those optional side trips are. I've yet to take a trip to Europe where the pass was worth it personally, but it's not impossible that it would be if you'll be moving around a LOT for a few weeks at a time. |
To buy insurance on a rental car in Ireland is very expensive but if you use a Discover card or Mastercard, they should cover the insurance so you don't have to buy it. But double check on this with them to make sure that's true for the Republic, I'm positive it is for NI but not 100 percent sure they cover Ireland. Visa DOES NOT cover your rental insurance so don't use Visa to book the car. Our most recent trip in Dec. we had a car for 7 days in Belfast and it was $170 but we also had a corporate rate. Still, for a 3 day rental I wouldn't think it would be too much. Edit: Oh and Discover doesn't charge foreign transaction fees, which is a plus. Last edited by Zoe Moon; 04-26-2014 at 12:29 AM.. |
American Express has a really awesome rental car insurance program- for $25 per rental (not per day) it does everything a CDW does from the rental company for a much higher price for about 95% of countries worldwide.
However, it does not apply in Ireland, which has its own convoluted rental car insurance laws. Very few credit card auto rental insurance policies apply in Ireland, so check with your individual card agreement to see if it applies- a MasterCard from Chase may work; one issued by Bank of America may not Last edited by beachmouse; 04-26-2014 at 07:57 AM.. |
A few tips on things to do in/near Dublin...
Book of Kells, even if you're not a reader, it's a beautiful piece of art and gives you some background on the history of the Irish people. The old library that it's located in is very impressive too. http://www.tcd.ie/Library/bookofkells/ Guinness Brewery Tour (self guided) even if you're not a fan of Guinness, it's an interesting and very well done tour with a lot of Irish culture thrown in. More importantly the tour ends at the top of the tower in their 360 degree all glass bar, you get the best views of Dublin and the surrounding countryside from there and can stay as long as you like. They also throw in a free Guinness for each tour member who is of drinking age. http://www.guinness-storehouse.co.. Newgrange Burial Mound, one of the most important and most impressive sites in all of Ireland. They have a really well done visitors center/museum and the tour of the mound is quite good too. It's near the Battle of the Boyne site and is a short trip north of Dublin, both can be done as a day trip. http://www.newgrange.e Battle of the Boyne, if you're into history, this is probably (next to the Easter Uprising) the most important battle in Irish history. If you're not into history, it's an area of great beauty, lot's of green hills, sheep and a beautiful river running through the valley, so it's a good place to take some photos. There's a museum on site but I haven't been through it, so not sure how good it is. http://www.heritageire |

My plants are all outside for the summer. This weekend, I pulled a weed from one of the pots and up came a grub with it. I repotted the tree and found more in there as well. Luckily, I think I caught it in time before it killed the tree. So now I'm worried about all my other potted trees/plants, and I have LOTS of them, as I know we all do, and do not want to lose any to grubs. Should I pull them all out of the soil and give them a check or is there something else I can do? |

quickest and easiest way is to use a liquid pesticide. |
Where do you live? Any chance of an image f the "grub?" |
- Posted by Becauseican 9b Danville E(SF)Bay (My Page) on Mon, Aug 11, 14 at 18:20
Option 1) pull and pick them out (you have a decent chance of getting most of them) - feed them to the birds... they love them! Option 2) Apply Imidacloprid. there is a variety of products out there - check the labels. I use multiple products and the amount depends on if the plant is fruiting/bearing, blooming or just pushing new leaves. I have even had success with Bayer Grub control for lawns. Caution though, this stuff has N so i do NOT recommend it for potted plants. |
- Posted by veggie_girl (My Page) on Mon, Aug 11, 14 at 20:56
I live in the Ozarks. The link below has what they look like. Is there anything organic I can add to the pots? Otherwise, I guess I will pull them all out and inspect them and repot in new soil if found. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Grub image
The only organic solution I can think of would be beneficial nematodes. I think they work on soil grubs, but I'm not positive. You can buy them. But I don't know if they work in pots. Usually they're used in the ground. They usually invade lawns, not very common in pots I think, but obviously it can happen. Here's an article about them in your neck of the woods, hope it helps. |

Hi Guys,
As my pattern for clogs arrived last week am about to begin. However, in Australia the wool required is hard to come by, I think the climate is too warm for such a thick yarn but I managed to get a small amount from a reasonably large fabric & yarn store here in Newcastle. Just one small snag, it is labled 'machine washable'. Anyone have any thoughts on this?? Will it still felt or will the process take a little longer?? Thanks guys.
Well now that i am no longer really a newbie to thgis website, I am starting to learn what it has to offer.
Compared to what I have seen around here I am still a very amature knittier... Which is fine with me I will learn with time. I was the same with my artist drawing skills they did not happen right away either... I think being an artist has helped with my creativity in making my own patterns for dish clothes and wanting to try new things.
Well I guess this is all for know. I will write more in days to come. When I can actually find time to between working and home life.
I stumbled over a nice little site for the 'New to knitting' crowd. (there's also free patterns to entice the others). Its a niftly little site that has little videos (FOR FREE). I must've watched a dozen of them this morning. Vicki Howell she's not, but she did manage to demystify Magic Loop knitting for me, as well as those pesky Kitchener and mattress stitching. Check it out. http://www.knittinghelp.com/ Best to you all.
After frogging the first clog back to it's origins on Tuesday, I finaly finished it this morning. I'm going to start the second today and take it with me when I go to California next week. After all, it's going to end up there anyway.
There's been some good work being shown by Justin and Ben. Good going guys! And JPaul.... I have to, ahemm, ask, is yours getting any bigger yet?
How 'bout the rest of you. Making progress? Thoughts? Do you hate me for getting you all into this???
From his many song, one song really like is "Only You"...When 80's ...This song was really popuer song by Yazoo. It is remix by Makana..He his great voice and guiter sound..Its sooooo beutiful~~~~
My music choice depends on what I'm making, but, for the most part, these are the artists I listen to most while knitting:
Ani DiFranco, Bjork, Chemical Brothers, Cibo Matto, Coldplay, Fiona Apple, Interpol, Ladytron, Le Tigre, Nine Inch Nails, Rilo Kiley, Rufus Wainwright, Seabound, Tegan and Sara, Tori Amos, Tracy Chapman, and VNV Nation
What about you boys?
Finished the 1st pair.
Not a stellar success, one turned out lopsided and I grabbed the wrong needles to knit up its brother... and did not notice till I was doing the final bind off.
Fortunately, these little mistakes are hidden in the final product. I just let one felt longer than the other and it's all the same. Or at least close enough for me.
Well I felted my first pair of clogs last night.
There were a few tense moments in the process but overall I think they came out alright.
Given that I had a made a few mistakes in knitting the first clog I decided to felt them individually. That way I could shape the one I had knitted correctly to the size I wanted and then work on getting the second one to conform to size.
Clog one felted just fine but about half way through, when I pulled the piece out to check on its progress, I noticed that the heel stitches had come loose. There was a small hole on the back bumper between the two soles. I added a few extra stitches using a large and very sharp needle and then continued the felting process. The piece came out great but it had a much furrier exterior than I expected.
Dear Gentlemen
Please forgive me for just posting about the knitted river all the time, it's because it's (almost) the biggest thing in my life at the moment.
We have posters available if any one would like one for display in the lys or church hall or anywhere(!). It would be great to have a poster next to every water cooler is the western world.
the poster is also available as pdf but I'd love to send them through the post. If you are interested email your deatils and the amount and I'll get right to it.
I apologize for my lack of action in our men who knit group. I am still around, extremely busy with my MSN group and learning to Quilt. I am embarking in a very interesting craft alongside knitting and crocheting, quilting.
I have gone to Puerto Rico to visit in January and I am have been back. What else? Just enjoying this beautiufl life one day at a time. Got a tatto, and I am planning my 30th High School reunion in 2008. Growing my beard and thinking of making some new knitted hats.
Thanks for allowing me to share

Sleeps | 10 |
Bedrooms | 4 |
Bathrooms | 2 |
Half Baths | 2 |
Property type | house |
Minimum Stay | 1 - 2 nights |
A funky house that is sure to give you a great vacation with plenty of room for everyone and lots of neat touches that will make the stay enjoyable for the entire family and any friends you want to bring.
North lake location means low volume of traffic going by to maximize your enjoyment of the surroundings while also reducing worry for the kids. On almost an acre of land, a wooded area next to the house will certainly keep young explorers safely busy and keep their imaginations active.
Open plan with large, vaulted-ceiling living / dining area to watch TV, enjoy the propane fireplace, or look out at the lake through the ample windows or 2 sets of sliding glass doors. Full kitchen with brand new stainless appliances including a smooth 5 burner cook-top and dishwasher.
4 great sized bedrooms. Master on first floor with Queen bed AND daybed AND pack-n-play 3 bedrooms on second floor including one with queen bed, one with full-size bed, and one room with 2 sets of bunk-beds (4 beds). Televisions in the master and upstairs queen bedrooms with satellite access.
Bathroom on second floor, full bathroom in master complete with shower unit and bidet. (that's unexpected!) Another complete bath on first floor with tub / shower and another bidet. Half bath right off the entrance next to an indoor, cedar-sided hot-tub room with in-ground hot-tub spa that seats 2-3 easily, 4 if you are really close.
Separate game room that offers a full-size air-hockey table, Foosball and big 55 inch TV. A propane fireplace / stove keeps it very warm, and the room is air-conditioned for the summer. Sliding glass doors and windows provide lots of light and fantastic breezes. Plus seating and a kitchenette table for gaming or snacking. This room is attached to the house but separated by a door so the games won't disturb anyone watching the satellite TV or a DVD, reading, or relaxing in the main living area.
Spacious deck features a fantastic view of the north lake. Built-in benches provide ample seating and the outdoor dining furniture with umbrella provides shade when needed and a great place to have a drink while watching the sun go down. Gas grill available for use. (we can't guarantee full propane, but refill places are close by or bring your own tank)
In-home washer / dryer so you don't have to go home with dirty clothes (unless you want to).
The house is definitely kid-friendly and has a high chair and pack-and play on site for you to use.
Free wi-fi also.
Unfortunately, our niece and nephew are allergic, so we cannot allow pets. Sorry, but the kids come first.
We're a young family from Bucks County with small children who love to spend time with each other and our extended family. We enjoy skiing / snowboarding and spending time at the beach, so we want the opportunity to spend time at the house as much as opening it up for other vacationers to also enjoy it for their vacations.
The Pressman Family purchased this house in 2012
We absolutely love the location of this property. Across the street from the lake, a short walk to the beach and playground, and not even a far walk to the island pool. That pool area is the best one in the development for kids, with the mushroom waterfall. Picnic benches there as well as tennis courts make it a great place to hang out for the better part of the day.
After spending many a Christmas / New Years holiday in a small timeshare with other family and going skiing and outlet shopping, we love the area and everything there is to do, but we needed more space as our families grew. The size and space in this house is fantastic and should be able to accommodate plenty of guests. If the bedrooms don't provide enough space, there is good room for air mattresses in the main living area also. Combined with the fantastic view and the wooded property that the kids love, the game room space is awesome and just works for us.
The house is definitely 'funky' with the bidets in the bathrooms (you know you want to try one), the 70's colors and mirrors there, the crazy master bedroom and of course, the indoor hot tub / spa. It has just the right amount of funk to make it interesting and enjoyable, and gives it a touch of personality. But when we walked in after seeing about 30 houses in person and lots more on-line, it just felt like home to us. And we'd love for you to enjoy it too.
Arrowhead Lakes is a private, gated community that is family focused and offers great value and options for vacationers. Swim or kayak in the lake (rent or bring your boat), sun at the beaches, playgrounds for the kids, swimming pools (heated), basketball and tennis courts. Brand new lodge and additional clubhouse offer daily activities such as bingo, crafts for kids, dancing, exercise classes, and something unique every day. Easy community to bike, and you'll be sure to see more than your fair share of wildlife.
In the area, skiing is very close by (Jack Frost is 8 minutes, Camelback is 20 minutes tops, and the other pocono resorts aren't far. For summer, Jack Frost and Camelback both have water parks, there are several close by golf courses including split Rock Resort. There are local places to go tubing / rafting or play mini-golf.
Outlet shopping is close by, and the kids will love a trip to the 'Candle Shoppe' which has every kind of candy imaginable by the pound.
State game lands are near if you are into hunting, and the lakes are great for bass fishing we are told. Right off the beach.
Split Rock has a fantastic spa, and Mount Airy Casino is also close which offers some adult entertainment and pampering as well.

I sincerely doubt it. I've been a fairly major contributor to Linux
Audio for about half a decade now and I've posted less than a 100

things done do--people who just talk rarely accomplish anything. I'm
certainly not the reason why you or anyone else isn't buckling down
and making the world they want rather than complaining about the one
they've been handed. I would much prefer that *everyone* in the
community do something useful.
There is no master plan. There is no mission statement. There is only
a handful of crazy/brilliant people making the tools they need to do
the work they want to do. Only occasionally do these parameters
overlap. I don't see anything wrong with that.
The day that Linux is *the* mainstream platform for audio, if it ever
happens (don't hold your breath) will be just another day for me. I
couldn't care less. Everyone will be running some layer of shiny
proprietary crap on top of the framework we built anyway and it will
be just as irrelevant to me as Windows and OS X are now.
And furthermore, to set the record straight: Any developer of a
large/complex free-software project knows very well that it isn't
about being cheap either--time is money and this stuff take a *lot* of
