I have to place my cabinet order in the next week or so, and I need to select a sink. We are going for a vintage feel for our 1927 colonial. White inset cabinets, schoolhouse lights, soapstone or a honed black granite, subway tile, etc. I am debating what type of sink. I love the look of the white cast iron but I have that now and it is a pain to maintain. Thoughts on how a stainless apron front sink will fit in? I am attracted to apron front because I have a bad back and think it is better ergonomically. We are a family of 5...not too hard on stuff but very high traffic kitchen. Thanks! |

I've been researching building plans and magazines from this period. I've fallen in love with a 1924 Radford 1100 sqft California bungalow to build on the family farm. Stainless steel was commonly used. In fact I've seen ads and articles with SS counters and integrated sinks so don't let anyone tell you its not period. If you really want to bring in some vintage feel check out the colors they used at the time. I'm not into the floral curtains or wallpapers but I do love the cabinet and wall colors they used. I think about trying to strike a balance between vintage and today's aesthetics and technology. I'm not keen on using an ice box after all. I will probably also do a SS apron sink because I love metal, but that's another story. |
I don't have an opinion on period styling, but I want to mention that I have both a ss apron sink and soapstone. I highly, highly recommend a flush sink install. We bang around our ss pots and pans, not to mention the cast iron pots, and I am so thankful for the flush install! It has really saved our counter surrounding the sink. |

I used one in our late 1920's cottage/bungalow. We live on a former dairy farm--I once found a pic of cheese being made in a vat which reminded me of a big SS sink, so I think it's appropriate. It was a budget compromise, but I love it! |
Just beautiful Petunia! |
I read somewhere that someone scratched their sis apron front with the metal button or belt buckle when they leaned on it. I am a leaner so I didn't get one. |
I would think that stainless would be more of a pain to maintain then cast iron. |

It develops a patina like any other material. |

A stainless apron front is an unmistakable modern choice. It takes the vibe towards more "transitional" than "vintage", but that's not a bad thing. If you want more actual vintage, then have a stainless steel counter fabricated with an integral sink and drainboards. That's a very vintage detail that also can tweak modern industrial as well. |
- Posted by IowaCommute (My Page) on Sat, May 18, 13 at 14:39
Farmhouse sinks are not used today the way they originally were. Today we put them over cabinetry but sinks either had an integrated drainboard, integrated into the whole countertop, or with leg (during the time period you're referring). So a farmhouse sink the way we use it today is not authentic, but I can't imagine many people going that route. Needless to say get what you want because SS after all can be considered a vintage material. |

Peacock takes the plaudits
GB skipper leads Rhinos to the semi-finals

Leeds coach Brian McClennan hailed the efforts of Jamie Peacock after his outstanding performance hauled the Rhinos into the Challenge Cup semi-finals.
The Great Britain captain was in magnificent form as Leeds defeated Wigan 23-16 at Headingley Carnegie in Saturday's opening quarter-final.
"He was outstanding," said McClennan. "In the last five minutes he looked like he has fought in all the wars.
"He is bleeding from his elbow to his eye but he just kept taking it up. It was just a phenomenal effort from a great rugby league player."
Early tries from Matt Diskin and Rob Burrow gave Leeds the perfect start, but Wigan hit back through Mark Calderwood just before the break.
Brent Webb restored the Rhinos' advantage before Thomas Leuluai replied for the Warriors, but Leeds had the final say when Scott Donald grabbed a fourth try five minutes from time.
"It was one of those classic old-style games," added McClennan. "The only thing that was missing was the mud.
"There were big plays by people on both teams. It was a great effort by every player who took the field today.
"There wasn't a lot in it. In the end we just managed to capitalise on our breaks."
Wigan coach Brian Noble was proud of his players' efforts and suggested the best team had lost.
"It would have been worthy of the final," he said. "On any other given day, I think we would have come away with the spoils.
"The effort was terrific from the players and sometimes the best team doesn't come away with the spoils.
"We just couldn't quite get to their half of the field enough times in the second half.
"We really tried to play. The boys had a huge dig but the bounce of the ball has gone Leeds' way today."

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

In the last year I had headaches on a daily basis, alongside the odd migraine. It made me feel nauseous, light headed and generally unwell. Taking medicine or not did not make any difference, and the eye and hearing tests were well. A specialist of vertigo diagnosed me with vestibular migraines and prescribed me propopanolol, a beta blocker.
The headaches were minimal for a month but then they came back just as bad as in the beginning. My GP suggested that I contact Jenny for an alternative solution to avoid increasing the dosage of my beta blocker. Jenny gave me a very welcoming, cheery and incredibly positive. She sat down with me as if she had all the time in the world to hear about my problems and the journey that had brought me to her. Her wealth of medical knowledge and confidence put me at ease immediately. She has a fabulous sense of humour and she explained exactly what we could do to ease my symptoms.
Jenny finds the problem areas so quickly, and clears them away! My sessions are never rushed – and I come out relaxed. My 6 year old daughter even allowed Jenny to pop a needle in her hand and she thought that was wonderful.
After 4 weeks the results are fantastic. I have HALVED my beta blocker dosage and I'm delighted that acupuncture and massage actually works for me.

We had trouble conceiving and after various tests were told we had "unexplained infertility". Conventional fertility treatment was going to be very expensive for us, so I researched other options, including Chinese medicine / acupuncture, and Jenny was recommended to me. After a detailed conversation (and no invasive tests!) Jenny had a diagnosis and treatment plan. I saw her over the course of several months and am pleased to report I'm now 14 weeks pregnant.
I thought Jenny was very thorough in considering all aspects of my health that might affect my condition, plus she explained her treatment well, which I found helpful in understanding why it was important for me to continue.
Cate, arrived on Tuesday 3 June, 3.3kg. She came out safely and fast bottom first! My older girl is enjoying being a big sister.

The pain of shingles was totally debilitating, the only thing I could do was sleep and painkillers did nothing to help. After one treatment from Jenny I realized that this was helping immensely. Four sessions later the pain was virtually gone and I could function normally. The shingles is still in my system but well under control.
Thank you Jenny indeed.
Clare Hargrave, Titirangi
As a participant of the recent "Changing Minds" seminar addressing the relevance of Acupuncture to mental health services, I found Jenny Li to be informative and very relevant. In this era of pharmaceutical dependence, she spoke candidly of the impact of and the holistic nature to recipients in significance of the efficacy of acupuncture.
Jenny's "views on acupunctures" 5 Phase theory was both well informed and well documented. I believe her participation in the forum allowed for an educational and progressive review of the impact of such treatments, as well as being that it addesses the very foundations of quantifying understanding outcomes, with regards to establishing more effective practices in mental health service provisions.

I have suffered from post shingles nerve pain for approximately the last six to seven years. I have tried numerous treatments and medication over the years with no effect. In April of this year I went to see Jenny Li to try accupuncture for my chronic pain. I experienced immediate relief after my first visit. I have been to Jenny for six sessions and I am now pain free. Accupuncture is virtually a painless treatment procedure which has changed my life in a positive way.
J. G, Northcote
I am inflicted with Parkinson's syndrome, and sought relief of my physical debits. Upon completion of an in-depth enquiry, Jenny prepared a program to assist with downgrading reliefs. After 3 sessions of massage and acupuncture, I noticed a large improvement in my walking efforts, together with better stamina. It was an amazing experience. Acupuncture is worth a try.
The treatment George received was excellent. Jenny has wonderful ability to assist the client.
George and Dorothy T, Henderson
A letter of thanks–in the words of our mum, in her 83rd year suffering from shingles.
"I would just like to say that the acupuncture I received from Jenny helped me curing the pain I was suffering with a severe case of shingles a nerve disorder.I had the shingles for about 9 weeks and with medication and ointments were helping, but not 100 %. It was recommended by friends to try acupuncture. At first I thought,oh my god what is she doing, but after each session it was less. And after 5 visits with jenny, I can now say that I am free of pain.
I would recommend her and her treatment to anyone.Thanks again Jenny."
Eileen G, Glen Eden
Jenny was recommended to me by my GP, I had visited her complaining of headaches over my left temple that had become more frequent. My doctor diagnosed these as Neuralgia and said that she could give me medication, which was heavy duty, or try acupuncture. After a thorough examination and taking down my medical history Jenny performed acupuncture, and there was a noticeable improvement in the frequency of the headaches. During my treatments Jenny explained Chinese medicine and answered any questions that I had. My last treatment was 2 months ago and I am happy to report my headaches have not returned. If they were I would have no hesitation in returning to Jenny for further treatment. I have also recommended her to several of my friends.
Julie M, Laingholm
I went to see Jenny for weight loss from another happy client of the Clinic. After 5 days of acupuncture I had lost 4kg. Of course I was "over the moon" at the weight reduction. What I lost in weight I gained in energy, confidence and a new lease of life, as I was feeling very low in esteem and was severely depressed, but now I am into joining a water walking class, something I would never have even considered before seeing Jenny.
I will be visiting Jenny for top-ups and to keep me honest with my journey to a renewed ME. Thank you Jenny for being so kind, helpful, understanding, friendly and encouraging.
Annette, Glendene
I went to see Jenny after 2 failed IVF cycles. I had been tested by the fertility clinic as having a low egg reserve meaning that I would not be able to produce as many eggs as the clinic would have liked to ensure success. Before going through my third IVF cycle I decided after some research to try acupuncture to give me the best chance of pregnancy.
Jenny worked with me every week for up to 4 months before and then during my IVF cycle. Jenny is very approachable, and I was very comfortable with her. She was very thorough and genuinely cared about my progress every step of the way. Lo and behold, this time I had a successful IVF pregnancy and I am now 12 weeks pregnant. I have not seen Jenny for 8 weeks since pregnant and no longer needed to see her, however she has kept in touch with me, checking in my feelings and making sure that everything was going well. It was great having the peace of mind knowing that by going through acupuncture with Jenny, I would absolutely recommend Jenny's acupuncture for anyone. She is extremely knowledgeable and has a lot of experience with her craft which comes across very easily when she is working with you.

I was involved in a car accident in April 2008, where even after cervical spine disc replacements; I have a most likely will continue to have a condition which is known as CRPS, Chronic Regional Pain Syndrome. For me this is my Neck, right shoulder and back.
I write to advise and recommend anywhere suitable that Jenny Li and her magic massage and acupuncture sessions have and do work wonders for my condition and pain. At times even with high volumes of pain medication, I lose vast movement in these areas. With Jenny's aid I get this movement back, and can continue to try an lead an almost normal lifestyle. I highly recommend these treatments to anyone with low movement or high pain…especially as CRPS has as yet, no cure.
Sian King, Glen Eden
I was diagnosed COPD because of a reduced lung capacity due to years of smoking, and I was very quickly out of breath and had very low energy levels. I had to use an inhaler in the rest of my life but I was not completely satisfied with the outcome of my doctor so I went to Jenny Li's acupuncture clinic for a second opinion.
After acupuncture treatments the phlegm content in my lung had reduced for 80% and my energy levels are on the rise. I am very satisfied with the outcome because I do not have to use any inhaling medicine anymore.
Dave, Glen Eden
I had recently started having migraine headaches something I had not had since being pregnant with my youngest daughter who is now 8 years old, the last headache was extremely severe and debilitating, lasting for 3 days but also accompanied by flashing lights and paralysis down my left arm.
Jenny prescribed a course of treatment which included acupuncture with an electric charge & also massage. Jenny's friendly & open nature ensured I felt totally comfortable & at ease with all the treatments she recommended. I only experienced one headache and that was after the first treatment, I have now been migraine free for many months, sleep better and as an extra Jenny have also helped me lose my tummy and I feel fitter, invigorated and full of life.
Allyson T, Avondale
Thank you so much Jenny for your help. I'm overjoyed to tell you that I have so much more energy – I can now play with my children without running out of breath in 2minutes. I also had a lot of trouble getting a full night's sleep because I have sensitive hearing – now I wake up ready to start my day and less grumpy with my children and partner who would all love to say "Thank You". I feel completely different after seeing you – your treatment relaxes me and has made me a better person and a better mother.
I have also heard from the hospital for my 5th round of egg donation. Based on my blood results from my last round they were going to advise that I should not do another donation, however after seeing you for a few treatments and getting my bloodtests done again they are more than happy with the results and will let me cycle now.
After the first round of egg donations for this couple only resulted in 4eggs, 1 which was a fresh transfer and 1 which was a frozen transfer the fertility staff discussed it and decided that it would be ok for me to cycle again because the egg quality was good… just minimal numbers that's all. They sent a letter to my intended couple and a copy to myself basically stating that this would be their last publicly funded cycle regardless of whether or not I produced any eggs this next round. This didn't really instill a lot of confidence in me. I also found out from the clinic that my AMH (Anti-Mullerian Hormone) count was very low 1.33. It had dropped from above 2 early 2010 to 1.33 in Dec last year. I'm pleased to advise that they actually collected 11 yesterday. As of this morning 9 of the 11 fertilised…and they (both the clinic and my intended parents are astonished). In fact my very first round back in 2009 gave the same number of eggs and fertilisation rate and I believe as well as my intended parents that accupuncture was the answer.
Richelle C, New Lynn
I have been having treatments for my painful shoulder and neck from Jenny for a few months now. After thorough assessment of my symptoms and a range of treatments to help provide relief, I have now regained strength and extension of movement in my arm. The pain has decreased too. This allows me to continue my sport of paddling, as well as helping my regular daily activities.
Jenny has provided me with education of the causes of my injuries, and exercises for me to do between treatments. I am very pleased with the treatments you have given me and intend to continue with it, until the optimal results have been achieved.
Linley R, Glendene
At the time of my initial consultation I was suffering from chronic neck and shoulder pain, which was interfering with my work and disrupting my sleep.
Just a few months into Jenny's treatment regime I have experienced so much relief that I have been able to reduce the frequency of my treatments. The neck pain is simply no longer a problem for me, while the pain in my shoulders and back is being adequately managed. My sleep patterns have improved and I can now work for extended periods at my computer and on the phone without pain. Thank you again for your professionalism and, most importantly, the fantastic results.
Rob C-Former NZ Wheel Blacks, Kumeu
I have been seeing Jenny for several months for severe chronic pain following an ankle injury 28 years ago. Amazingly form the very first visit I felt relaxes and the very first benefit was a reduction in the stress I had been feeling and I was able to get a really good night sleep for the first time in months.
Jenny is extremely professional and experienced but she has a lovely personality too and I thoroughly look forward to my sessions with her not only for the relief they give me from my symptoms but also for her company. I always leave the sessions feeling much better.
Mandy F, New Lynn
After many years of constant stress, I was not coping with all aspects of my life and needed help. After a thorough and comprehensive initial consultation it was obvious that Jenny has a holistic approach to her work which encompasses all levels of healing.
As western medicine treats only the injury and looks no further than that, it was a relief to have an opportunity to experience healing on many levels. The sessions I have had with Jenny have indeed provided stress relief and healing on the mental, emotional and physical planes and I am, now, more capable of meeting life's challenges head on.
Janet, New Lynn
Her (Jenny Li) talents have helped me greatly with controlling blood pressure, muscular aches and pains and keeping me in good health as I grow older with regular pulse diagnosis and corrective treatment. Her English language skills are excellent which is very necessary when dealing with non-Chinese speakers.
It is my belief that Acupuncture and other traditional treatments are a great supplement to western Medicine can only be successfully administered by suitably qualified ethnic Chinese as only they can fully understand the philosophy that supports this natural treatment.
Don Matthew, Green Bay
Jenny has worked with me for 7 years. I am a C6 tetraplegic. I play wheel chair Rugby and it is demanding on my shoulders. Jenny's treatments and massage has helped maintaining my shoulders, keeping them pain free with good strength and range.
Martin P, Whenuapai
I had great help from Jenny Li when I had my shoulders injured and Jenny has help me a lot to get rid of my pain and if there is something she is always ready to help. Thank you so much Jenny.

I met Jenny about a year ago when I approached her to assist in managing my Parkinson's disease (PD). I have had acupuncture to treat a variety of ailments with positive results. I therefore approached Jenny Li to seek her assistance. I now have acupuncture regularly as I believe it gives relief to some of the symptoms of PD which can be quite debilitating.
I would recommend her to anybody seeking assistance from acupuncture. She always has a friendly disposition and greets you with a smile. She offers hope and encouragement and gives help and treatment where others can't. She is a professional in her work. While she is "Chinese", she is for all intents and purpose now, a "Kiwi".
Geoff Winn, Te Atatu South
Thanks very much Jenny for your excellent treatment for my injury, your confidence in my injury treatment was the best part that gives me also comfort. I would also appreciate the half hour therapy gift voucher for my birthday and wish I could change it to half year.
I would not recommend anyone else but only you. You are the best.
Lucas H, Henderson
Approximately 2 years ago I was inflicted with acute lower back, hips, and knee and above leg pain due to long hours of physical training. I visited a number of physio therapist and osteopaths but did not help or only for a temporary solution. My swim training instructor recommended Jenny Li to me as she does with a lot of her students; I am so pleased after a number of TCM treatments including massage, acupuncture and cupping that cured all my aches and pains. Not only did Jenny cure my condition she educated me as well and taught me what I was doing wrong in my training and how my pain and muscle tightness can be prevented in the future.
I found Jenny's TCM treatments to be more than beneficial and far superior to the Western style of massage and other treatments. I still visit Jenny every now and again to keep my body in top condition and I would recommend her and her TCM treatments to anyone with any sort of muscular pain or any other aliment.

Traumatic injury to the right inferior dental nerve and nerve irritation to the distribution of the right trigeminal nerve followed by dental work involving a mandibular nerve block.
I had lost all my nerve feeling on the right side of my face from the dentist going into the nerve with the local anesthesia. My very best friend told me that the best thing to do is to have acupuncture and recommended Jenny Li. I have been seeing Jenny now for 16 acupuncture meetings, one or two days after I can feel a difference each time. Jenny couldn't do enough for me. As Jenny has done the upmost very right treatment to get my face and life back in order. I recommend to any one that Jenny Li for Acupuncture and nerve repair.
Robert A, New Windsor
After purchasing our new business which involves a lot of physical work, I started getting symptoms of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. A few week later after working at sites, both my wrist were extremely painful and tingling sensation throughout my fingers and also sore thumb. In the mornings before I wake up, my fingers get frozen and very painful to open and close my palm. This continued for about 3 weeks until I found Jenny's website via Google.
I had read about surgeries, but that was something I did not wish to have due to post surgery side effects etc. I called Jenny and she was very helpful over the phone and booked me for a free 1st treatment and consultation. Jenny knew exactly what my problem was and was very professional with the entire course of my treatment. After just the 1st visit I felt a lot of difference. After 3 treatments, one every week my symptoms were down to almost 5%. 2 weeks after my last treatment it feels like its almost gone. Thank you Jenny for everything you have done for me, you got my life back on track again.
Al Kumar, Avondale
I went to Jenny for severe heads/migraines and she gave me a very detailed examination and told me acupuncture was to help restore my body's natural balance and energy fields, and also to help the blood flow run correctly to stop the pain.
Jenny kept me very calm and she applied the needles with ease and no effort. The procedure was very painless and quick, you can feel the blood moving around. (This really does feel very relaxing). Within the first 2 weeks I noticed a dramatic difference with the painful attacks, they were more or less gone. After treatment if an attack was coming on it seemed to quickly subside and not be as painful.
I have been seeing my doctor for 2 years previously and they didn't know what the attacks were and just claimed them as cluster migraines, but Jenny knew otherwise and treated the heart of the problem with instant results, so I can honestly say Jenny has saved me from days of severe painful attacks.
I can now function normally and don't have to stay at home and be in pain. Thank you Jenny Li you are truly amazing at what you do and I would like to thank you for helping me be "normal" again.
Karen B, Parau
I was pregnant with my 2nd child suffered very bad pregnancy sickness so my doctor recommended Jenny Li for acupuncture. I then was amazed that my severe nausea and vomiting would subside after each treatment for 2 – 3 days at a time, this meant I could go to work and function normally for this period. I continued to see Jenny until I was 18 weeks pregnant, she made a huge difference to me and I am very grateful to her.

Lijiang, Yunan. My favorite place in China. If you are not too fit, but still want to go high, try Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. You can get up to 4300m just by cable car.

Don't foget Dali, stay at the jade emu hostel. Tiger leaping gorge is great outside lijang. Make sure that if you're not fit that you give yourself some time to do that trek but you can easily do the first half in a day if you're fit. There's also a cool dinosaur park near kunming if you're a fossil nerd.

Loose stitching...leather seat...headache?
I'm considering making an offer on an '02 Limited with leather seats. The only flaw in the interior is a seam on the driver's seat has loosened or unraveled for about four or five inches. I believe it is the seam on the seat bottom closest to the door. Can this be repaired reasonably and confidently? The rig has 160,000 miles on it. Thanks. . |

Summary: Elements of the Theory of Numbers teaches students how to develop, implement, and test numerical methods for standard mathematical problems. The authors, Joseph and Thomas Dence, have developed a comprehensive, rigorous overview of number theory. This text makes greater use of the language and concepts in algebra and analysis than is traditionally encountered in introductory courses. Professors and students will welcome how the chapters are divided into two sets: Cha ...show morepters 1-6 and part of Chapter 7 pertain to all readers. This set ends with a full chapter on number fields. Chapters 10-11 are considered special topics which allow flexibility for the professor. Also, the authors have created a two-pronged pedagogical approach which integrates analysis and algebra with classical number theory. This pedagogical approach will help to instill in the minds of the students the idea of the unity of mathematics. Both professors and students will agree that Elements of the Theory of Numbers is the best summary of classical material along with a look at the exciting role of analysis and algebra in number theory.

"We were the first people that Kanye came to," Bangalter told Vibe. "He really responded positively to those ideas we were throwing out to him. And then he ran with it and built the record, working with a lot of other producers and based on maybe some of the initial directions that we had laid out together." (Kanye says he's been working on the "Black Skinhead" video for five months, so that can give you a rough sense of when Daft Punk linked up with the rapper.)
Bangalter even revealed that the standout percussion in "Black Skinhead" was originally intended for Random Access Memories. "The first track we did was 'Black Skinhead.' The drums we had recorded earlier during the recording of our album, so we had those."
Considering the chill disco/yacht rock vibes of RAM, they were probably wise to find a new home for those primal thumps.

Tyler, Tx (UT Tyler Athletics) — The UT Tyler softball team received six out of the possible eight first-place votes, and is ranked No. 1 in the latest National Fastpitch Coaches Association Top-25 poll. The Patriots are 35-2 overall, and 29-1 in the American Southwest Conference.

No Sew Spider Costume
By: Heather Mann for Dollar Store Crafts
Quick easy Halloween costumes are within your reach, even more so if you have eight arms! This No Sew Spider Costume from Heather Mann can be fashioned with clothing you probably already have in your closet, held together with duct tape!
- Black long-sleeved shirt
- Black stocking cap
- Black duct tape
- 2 pairs black socks (4 socks total)
- Black yarn
- 8 large wiggle eyes
- Plastic grocery bags (about 16)
- Scissors
- Glue dots
- Stuff black socks with plastic grocery bags. You'll need about four grocery bags per sock.
- Lay long sleeve shirt flat on work surface. Lay 2 stuffed socks along each of the side seams of shirt, evenly spaced apart.
- Attach socks to sides of shirt with duct tape. To anchor the sock to the shirt, use a 4" piece of tape running horizontally (side to side) across the edge of the sock, and then a second piece of duct tape vertically (up and down) over the edge of the sock. The second piece of tape should completely cover the edge of the sock.
- Turn shirt over and add tape to the other side of socks and shirt, repeating anchoring step above.
- Cut a 6' (72") piece of black yarn, and fold it in half, placing the folded section at the cuff of the sleeve. Lay the long tails of the string down across the two socks that are attached to the sides of the shirt.
- Duct tape yarn around cuff of shirt, with the long tails of the string coming off the bottom of the cuff. Tie a knot in the string at the bottom of the cuff. Be sure child's hand will fit comfortably through the cuff.
- About 4" from the knot, tie another knot. Place the middle sock between the two pieces of yarn, and tie the tail of the yarn securely around the sock. Knot at the bottom of the sock. Reinforce by attaching a small piece of duct tape over the string on the back side of the sock.
- Repeat step 7 for the bottom sock. Trim any excess string hanging off the knot on the bottom sock.
- Repeat steps 6-8 for other sleeve and socks.
- For hat, attach 8 large wiggle eyes to black stocking cap with glue dots.

Killer Joe--Better than I Thought Posted by nikki6 on 1/28 at 11:54 am Watched Killer Joe over the weekend and thought it was much better than I was expecting. Found it twisted, but entertaining. I thought Thomas Haden Church and Emile Hirsch gave great performances as the dim-witted father and son. Juno Temple was amazing as the sister. Matthew McConaughey was good, but as in almost every role he plays, I just see Matthew McConaughey, not the character. Overall, I liked it. Took me a while to realize it was filmed in Nola area(looks like mostly Westbank, Slidell, New Orleans East). Not a big fan of the ending: Spoiler Alert Does she kill Joe? Does she ride off into the sunset with him and have her baby? I'm not clear on this. I want her to kill him and get the hell away from her nut job family that whored her out. She was a little cuckoo herself, but I found her kind of crazy endearing in that, awww, she's so clueless kind of way, but she wasn't as clueless as we were supposed to believe.

put me down as another fan... Thomas Haden Church when Matthew was smacking around the wife after he learned she cheated was hilarious... And Juno Temple...great acting... As for the final scene...I thought they went off into the sunset together...maybe even dropping Church off at the hospital Reply Back to Top |
I think that too. Even if he did have a fricked up way about doing it, he was the only one to treat Dottie as if she was a normal, pretty girl, and he listened to her stories. That's all she wants so she probably fell in love with him instantly. This post was edited on 2/4 at 5:45 pm Reply Back to Top |

Whidbey screenwriter nears end of 10-year journey to 'Nebraska'
An interview with Bob Nelson, the Northwest writer whose screenplay "Nebraska," written over a decade ago, has finally become a film, directed by Alexander Payne ("Sideways," "The Descendants").
Seattle Times movie critic
Coming up
Opens Friday at the Guild 45th. Rated R for some language.
Bob Nelson's first screenplay, "Nebraska," was the story of a road trip — and it turned out to have a long road trip of its own. Nelson, a longtime Pacific Northwest resident and veteran of the Seattle sketch-comedy TV series "Almost Live!," wrote "Nebraska" more than a decade ago, inspired by his relationship with his father and by stories he'd heard about people trying to collect "sweepstakes winnings" in person. Now, it's finally on screen, filmed by director Alexander Payne ("Sideways," "The Descendants") and starring Bruce Dern.
"To me it's funny," said Nelson, who lives on Whidbey Island but spoke on the phone last week from New York on a publicity tour for "Nebraska." "I was on 'Almost Live!' for 10 years — you do stuff every week. We did about 30 weeks a year of shows, and you just go, go, go ... and here in the movie business, 10 years on one movie. Quite different, but I've enjoyed it."
The wait for "Nebraska" to get made was long but not particularly suspenseful: Payne, himself a Nebraska native, was attached very early to the project, but chose not to make the film immediately following 2004's "Sideways" (for which he won a screenwriting Oscar) — he wanted a break from road-trip movies.
"Every year or so, I would just ask the producers, 'Is Alexander still promising to shoot "Nebraska"?,' and the answer always came back, 'Yes,' " Nelson said. It was finally shot late last year, in several small Nebraska towns.
In the movie, Dern plays Woody, an elderly Nebraska native living in Montana and set in his ways — so much so that, when he receives a letter in the mail saying he "may have won" a million dollars, he's determined to head to the Nebraska address on the letter to collect his winnings. His son David (Will Forte) reluctantly agrees to take him, on what turns out to be a journey into Woody's — and David's — past.
"When I first sat down to write it, it was like a poem to my father," said Nelson. "Just kind of a way to think about that relationship." Nelson's father, like Woody, worked as a mechanic and "tended to have a drinking problem," though the on-screen character evolved to be someone different — "my dad was not that crotchety or cantankerous." But Nelson, whose father grew up on a farm in Nebraska, borrowed on numerous family stories for the screenplay, including a scene in which Woody and David hunt for Woody's lost false teeth on a railroad track outside a tavern. (Nelson's father, though, didn't pop the teeth right back into his mouth as Woody does. "We took them to the dentist.")
Though Nelson was only present for about a week of the film's shoot, that became a family affair as well: Nelson's mother, also a Nebraska native, came with him. She was thrilled to be cast as an extra in a restaurant scene. "Alexander knew she was my mother, so he gave her a little thing to do — walking to the buffet," said Nelson. "There are two women; she's Woman Number One. She has three or four seconds." Look closely and you'll see Nelson in that scene too, sitting in a booth and applauding a karaoke performer.
Nelson is looking forward to bringing his mother to the red-carpet premiere in Hollywood this month, and he spoke glowingly of seeing "Nebraska" at the Cannes Film Festival last spring — "a dream come true." But he's ready to move on to new projects. Since writing "Nebraska" a decade ago and immediately selling it, Nelson has launched a career as a screenwriter, with scripts in development at several studios. (Though he lives full time on Whidbey, he frequently travels to Los Angeles "when I have to," for meetings.)
Among his upcoming projects are a script at Pixar, an American remake of the French film "Intimate Strangers," a project with Chris Rock, and a "dramedy" called "The Tribe" to star fellow "Almost Live!" alum Joel McHale. Nelson hopes that the latter, for which they're working with John Malkovich's production company, will be his next project to go before the cameras — and will be his directing debut.
"I don't want to go another 10 years before the second one, if possible," he said. "I'm going to do everything I can to get another one made."

All the best pics right here! Published March 18, 2014 12:10 Ana Ivanovic was among a group of WTA stars who took part in a traditional Sony Open Tennis activity...

I have taken the plunge and decided on the wood ultrex windows from Integrity for my full frame replacement needs. Most of the existing windows have 2" brick mould trimming them out and I would like to match the look as much as possible although a have one wall that is between my house and the neighbors and not seen by anyone as well as two windows located very close to trim boards on the sides of a framed bay window.
First, I am under the impression that when properly installed and flashed this window does not need to be trimmed; is this correct? Second, for the ones that I want to trim can i go with a PVC brick mould or do I need to use another material? I noticed a small lip on the outer corner of the frame on the drawing; would I need to run the brick mould through a very shallow table say to all it to be let in to this lip? Also, are the PVC brick moulds usually paintable? Thanks |
Follow-Up Postings:
Will the windows be installed over sheathing and some kind of siding overlapping the nailing fin or will they be inset in a brick opening? The Infinity window frame is intended to mimic a brick moulding and if installed without additional trim, although it doesn't do a very good job of it. Since a brick mounding is tapered in thickness from the edge on the window side to the edge on the siding/brick side, adding it to a modern window would appear redundant unless it is brought out to the face of the frame by installing it over a 1 inch (+/-) thick flat moulding which would make the brick moulding protrude more than the siding (and possibly the brick). This is obvious if you look at the window frame in a showroom. An Eagle aluminum clad window frame looks more like a brick moulding IMHO. |
The windows will be installed in a wood frame home with Hardiplank lap siding. I will remove existing siding (needs to be replaced anyway) to allow for an installation exactly as called out in the instructions. The main design issue is that with the new thinner Integrity windows in the bay, I will have to fill 1"-1.25" of space between the window frame and the "corner board" either with trim, thin siding or change the corner board to a thicker one to run flush with the window. Ideas? |

I actually bought this exact same set from a bedding store three years ago and it has held up very, very well. It's on my son's bed and has been washed, dragged around the house, jumped on and still looks brand new. I happened to see it today in an Overstock advertisement for significantly less than I paid. Highly recommend.
The colors are nice, but otherwise not impressed with the size or quality of this item. It is very lightweight - not anything like a "real" quilt feels. It is painfully small for use on a queen bed and doesn't even reach the top of the bedskirt on all sides with my sons new mattress. Kicking myself for chucking the packaging, otherwise this would have gone back.
I love the colors and feel of this quilt but would not recommend it for a queen sized mattress...it is 86 x86, not 90x90 and just meets the bottom of the mattress with no overlap. I do not have an oversized mattress with pillow tops, just a regular mattress so I thought the full/queen size would be fine especially since it is advertised as a 90x90 inch quilt. But that was incorrect.
I bought this for my 12 year old grandson. It is beautiful, stylish and comfortable. It will probably last him until college and beyond!
I am happy with this quilt. Colors are true to picture. Size is great for Eastern King. Only thin, so won't be warm enough in winter. Will have to add a blanket.
I absolutely love the colors, not too bright, very happy with the product. I ordered the king for my queen size spare room and glad I did. The bed is very high and it fits perfectly. Looks very nice with dark furniture. The shams are sold separately and I seen this same style at Bed, Bath and Beyond, so I looked on line and was able to purchase them there. I could not fine them anywhere on overstock. The only thing is that they were almost as expensive as the quilt, $$ a piece, but I am happy with the look and the colors were an exact match even though they were ordered from two different places. It makes the spare room look very inviting. I wash it often as I have three little yorkies who love to go in that room and I did notice the cotton is starting to gather inside and knot up, but that is after 10 or 12 washings, so it depends how often you will launder the quilt. All in all it has held up very well and the colors have still not faded. I would definetly buy it again and recommend it. It light weight, we live in Fl so it's perfect.
I bought this for my grandson and he loves it. The material is a good quality and weight. The only downside of this purchase was that my grandson was disappointed that the sham did not come with it so I had to purchase that separately at what I thought was a higher than warranted cost. But he is happy and that's all that matters. It hasn't been laundered yet so I cannot comment on it's washability.
Got for my grandsons room and it really looks nice.
Absolutely beautiful quilt. Product was exactly what the picture showed. Well made. Not to thin, not to thick. Extremely pleased.
I always have to wash anything before using it. I was worried about how this quilt would hold up in the washer, but it did fine. The quilt looks very nice and feels soft and snuggly. It's not too light and not too heavy. It is perfect for the whole year with maybe a light blanket added on really cold winter nights. The only problem, and it's a big one, is the size of the quilt. I ordered a king size and it is definitely not large enough to cover to average size bodies on a king size bed. I am going to keep it for my son's full size bed when he gets a little older, but will have to keep looking for something to put on my bed. Such a bummer. I really love this quilt.

Robert Pattinson and Lindsay Lohan Party Together in Hollywood? New Details!
The rumor mill was buzzing Thursday morning after Lindsay Lohan and Robert Pattinson were photographed out at the same bar Wednesday night. Lindsay, 25, left Chateau Marmont to go to Pour Vous around midnight, a new Parisian cocktail lounge in Los Angeles where Pattinson, 25, happened to be.
Pretty much. The soon to be hotspot isn't even open yet to the public, so the owners threw an intimate gathering for friends to check it out first.
Pour Vous is being opened by the same people behind Harvard & Stone, a lounge where Rob and girlfriend Kristen Stewart were regulars at, as well as Lohan. Sources in attendance Wednesday night say that Lindsay and Rob's outing was "totally innocent" and there is "nothing more to it" than friends supporting Pour Vous, which opens this weekend.
Inside, Celebuzz is told the Bel Ami heartthrob and Mean Girls actress hung out with friends they each came with before leaving separately. Needless to say, no "French kiss or two" happened between Lindsay and Rob.
Pattinson is happily dating longtime girlfriend Kristen Stewart.

Hot docs, endearing friendships, loving relationships -- why it's a great season to check back into Seattle Grace
''Pick me, choose me, love me.'' Izzie stripping down to her bra while yelling at everyone. The amazing Dr. Bailey speeches. Somewhere after that, though, the show's signature monologues started losing a little bit of their verve and impact. But welcome to the spiel renaissance, as ushered in by Dr. April Kepner, and her terrific ''we're all freaks'' (and virgins) speech.

Summary: Capitalism has never been a subject for economists alone. Philosophers, politicians, poets and social scientists have debated the cultural, moral, and political effects of capitalism for centuries, and their claims have been many and diverse. The Mind and the Market is a remarkable history of how the idea of capitalism has developed in Western thought.
Ranging across an ideological spectrum that includes Hobbes, Voltaire, Adam Smith, Edmund Burke, Hegel, Ma ...show morerx, and Matthew Arnold, as well as twentieth-century communist, fascist, and neoliberal intellectuals, historian Jerry Muller examines a fascinating thread of ideas about the ramifications of capitalism and its future implications. This is an engaging and accessible history of ideas that reverberate throughout everyday life. ...show less

Ha ha. Thats one way to get back into the swing of things.
Just saw this gem on the newswires. I'd say New Orleans is well on its way to a full recovery.
Strippers help tease back New Orleans nightlife
NEW ORLEANS (Reuters) - In a sign that things may be returning to normal in New Orleans, strip shows are back in the city's famous French Quarter.
Erotic dancers and strippers are entertaining crowds of police, firefighters and military personnel instead of the usual audiences of drunken conventioneers and tourists in Bourbon Street's Deja Vu club, which reopened this week.
It's the first strip joint to resume business, three weeks after Hurricane Katrina struck in the worst natural disaster ever to hit the United States.
"It's nice to get back to work, and all these men need some entertainment," Dawn Beasley, 27, a dancer at the club, said on Tuesday night. "They haven't seen anybody but their buddies for two weeks."
The crowd hooted and hollered as women peeled off their tops and gyrated, as customers tucked tips into their G-strings.
"This is our first time off the ship and it's great," said one young sailor as he left the club. He declined to give his name or say where he was stationed.
"It's good to see the businesses getting back up and bringing the city back," another sailor said.
New Orleans' strip clubs have long been a fixture of Bourbon Street, where marquees promise everything from "barely legal" dancers to transvestite divas. Photos of the seedy shows inside the clubs line the windows, next to scores of bars in the district that draws tourists from around the globe.
The city's dusk-to-dawn curfew failed to prevent the Deja Vu from staying open to the early hours, with blaring music and neon lights spilling out into the Quarter, most of which remained bathed in darkness in the aftermath of the storm.
"We were open till two last night, just long enough to get the testosterone flowing," Beasley said.
Only a handful of restaurants and bars in the Quarter have reopened in recent days, serving food and drinks -- usually without charge -- to rescue workers and military who stream through the mostly empty streets. The Deja Vu waived its cover charge, drinks were selling for $3 and a private dance was available for just $1.
For Deja Vu manager Brent Ardeneaux, reopening was a public service.
"It's a disaster zone. You got a lot of people in from out of town that need entertaining," he said as he unloaded supplies from the back of a pick-up truck.
The club even drew several women looking for a respite from their duties patrolling the city, but they resisted entreaties to join the others on stage and left after a few minutes.
One of them, a soldier, said: "We were just looking for any place open. We've been working hard."
It's great to see such a vital part of New Orleans' economy getting back into the swing of things. *sniff*
Clan? What Clan?
I'm the Master. I need no Clan.
Ha ha. Thats one way to get back into the swing of things.

Clan? What Clan?
I'm the Master. I need no Clan.
With the jiggle of some buttcheeks and "pole ballet" New Orleans has been given life again.
Because wherever there are construction guys and military guys with time to kill and cash to spend, the strippers will rise to the occasion to make sure that those lonely guys "rise to the occasion."
Clan? What Clan?
I'm the Master. I need no Clan.
I'm expecting the hookers to return to the streets within a few days. Afterall, seeing all those strippers will eventually leave something to be desired for those engineers.
*sigh* Where would we be without hookers and titty bars? o.O;

Easy-to-follow video tutorials help you learn software, creative, and business skills.Become a member
Here, we are going to take a look at how we can add border or edges to our photographs. But this time, I want to focus in on using those items that perhaps are something that you have scanned or maybe it's a frame or edge or border that you found online. Let's take a look at how we can do that here with this photograph of a really famous surfboard shaper, Mickey Muxoz. I like the texture of his workspace here, and so I want to add this frame to that photograph. To do that, we can go ahead and click out this tab and then use the Move tool to simply click, drag, and drop.
When it comes to working with frames, if you do a little bit of searching online, you can find a ton of these. You can even find an application called onOne PhotoFrame, which allows you to add frames really easily. Yet let's say that we have just scanned this old sheet of film, or we found something we want to use, we drag it into the image. Then let's free transform it. Command+T or Ctrl+T allows you to free transform, and I want to do that just so that it covers up my image. The next thing we need to do is we need to create a mask.
To do that, let's first make a selection. We can use Quick Select to do that and simply click and drag over the center area of the image. Now whenever you make a selection, you'll almost always want to refine it or just modify it. This time let's do that after we create the mask. What I want to do with this is conceal the center part of the image. Yet if we click on the Add layer Mask icon now, it conceals the frame, right? This doesn't really work. To invert that, press Command+I or Ctrl+I, Command+I in a Mac and Ctrl+I in a Windows.
That way you don't have to really worry about whether you've selected the right thing or the wrong thing. Well, to sweeten up the edge here, just double-click the Mask icon, and in the Properties panel, we go back to Refine > Mask Edge, and this allows us to use Smart Radius to smooth out that edge, to shift the edge. This can just give us the ability to kind of make this edge a little bit better. Try to take off some of the white that I was seeing on that edge. I am just going to turn off Smart Radius. I think it looks better without that.
And just by shifting the edge and maybe smoothing it out a little bit, it looks a bit better. You know about refining edges and all that, so I don't need to cover all those things in detail, but I do need to say that when you are creating your mask, make sure you go there to make sure your edges look good. Next, click OK. Well, here back in my Layers panel, you can see I have a few different versions of this photograph. This one, it doesn't really work. What about some of the others? Perhaps a desaturated sepia toned version with film grain. Doesn't really work either, but maybe this one does, the one in black and white.
The reason why I show you this is because sometimes this is about knowing how to do the technique, how to find a frame, bring it into your image, create that mask. Other times it's about knowing what mask or edge to choose in order to fit with your photograph or the color treatment that you've applied to that picture. I think this works well here. I want to show you a few other examples. In this document, I have two different images, and if I go ahead and go to Full Screen mode by pressing the F key and then zoom out a little bit so we can see the photograph, you can see that I can turn on these different frames or borders or edges.
I'll turn them on one at a time. As I look at these, really what I'm trying to do is evaluate which one might work well with my pictures. Well, I think this one's kind of nice, clean, and simple. This one, it's kind of too much. You can't really see the photograph very well. This next frame here, a little bit too minimal, and then this one, the color palette isn't quite matching for me. But if I were to use this frame, say, with this photograph here, well, that has this really nice kind of vintage feel to it.
The tone of the image matches the tone of the frame. Again, the whole point here is just to get you thinking creatively about how you can find these frames, create those masks, and then find a frame which will best complement your photographs.

The most common form of heart disease in cats is called "cardiomyopathy." This is a disease of the heart muscle itself. In the past, one type of cardiomyopathy (dilated cardiomyopathy) was more common because cats were not receiving enough of the amino acid called taurine. Now, most cat foods contain sufficient taurine to prevent this type of cardiomyopathy.
Dogs can also get cardiomyopathy, but are more prone to diseases of the valves of the heart. The valves of the heart are located between the different chambers of the heart (atria and ventricles). They prevent the blood from flowing backward through the heart. Diseases of the valves often result in heart murmurs.
