Author James Patterson Expands University Of Arkansas Scholarships
Bestselling author James Patterson has given more money for scholarships for education students at the University of Arkansas.
The university announced Wednesday that Patterson has created an additional eight teacher-education scholarships at UA. Last year, the author established the James Patterson Teacher Education Scholarship for eight incoming freshmen planning to major in elementary education.
The additional gift from Patterson brings the total for the upcoming year to $96,000.
To be eligible, a student must be enrolled full-time in an education program in the College of Education and Health Professions with an expressed interest in elementary education, particularly reading and literacy.
Patterson's books have sold an estimated 300 million copies worldwide.

The greener gadgets movement is certainly getting traction with conferences, competitions, news items, and CSR Green Maps boosting awareness. But according to Greenpeace, manufacturers still have a long way to go to eliminate hazardous substances from computers and mobile phones to make them more energy efficient. However, there are some companies who are taking the […]
Greenpeace has been pushing the "Green IT" movement for awhile now through awareness campaigns and lots (and lots) of rankings, surveys, etc. At CeBit, though, activists went a little bit guerrilla, erecting a giant robot made from electronic components at the entrance of the world's largest electronics fair. The protest was supposed to remind the industry leaders that it cannot continue to ignore the mountain of toxic waste coming from their products nor the serious environmental impacts and human health consequences.
"It's not enough just to offer a green computer for the tree-huggers. Environmentally friendly devices must become a general trend and dominate mass production," said one Greenpeace rep. Indeed, it's more than just tree-huggers who want to buy green. Eco-consciousness has gone mainstream, and it will become increasingly important for electronics brands to focus on reducing waste and toxins if they want to succeed as a 21st generation company.

Fionnuala Britton showed further improvement on Saturday when finishing second in the Great Edinburgh Cross-Country International.
Britton, along with Sophie Duarte, Gemma Steel, Charlotte Purdue and Emelia Gorecka were the early race leaders.
Gorecka and Steel forced the pace as Britton settled back in fourth place. The crucial point of the race came when Steel and Gorecka broke clear as the athletes headed out on the final lap.
Britton dug deep over the last lap to power past Gorecka, but Steel ran out the winner in 20.35.
Britton finished nine seconds back in a time of 20.44, with Gorecka third in 20.51. European champion Duarte finished in fourth place in a time of 20.57. Sarah Treacy (Moynalvey AC) finished 22nd in 21.39.
Michael Mulhare (Portlaoise AC) continued his excellent cross-country season with a fifth place finish in the Senior Men 8k race. Mulhare battled all the way to the line in 24.32. The race was won by Chris Derrick of the US in 24.11. David McCarthy (West Waterford AC) finished 11th.

Hi CindyBee, I also have some Cascade Venezia Sport in my stash which I begin to think might be better that my bamboo/silk mix. However, I can't get gauge! What size needles are you using? Thank you! Jeanie
Hello! This will be my first KAL. I just got my shipment from Knitpicks--I ordered their CotLin (70% cotton/30% linen in creme brulee) b/c it seemed nice for summer and their Gloss (70% merino wool/30% silk in guava) b/c, you know, free shipping, and I like options (and it's soooooo soft!). I have to do the swatching to decide what works better once it knits up. I also plan on skipping the keyhole. I felt like it took something away from the ruching when I compared the pics on Ravelry to the folks who left it out.
Hi. This will be my 3rd knit-along, but I don't think the second one really counts seeing as it's currently a UFO and only about 10% complete. I started a new job right after starting, but I hope to finish this summer. Anyway, I bought a beautiful fingering weight yarn from Dragonfly Fibers at the Vogue Knitting conference in NYC last month that I want to use. I'm on the last sleeve of my current sweater and as soon as I finish this weekend I'll swatch and post the yarn. Also, I plan to turn it into a cardigan. I haven't decided on the sleeve length yet and how I want to do the edging... TBD Maybe similar to the Tea Leaves cardigan on the Madelinetosh website.
I have one more increase row to do on the yoke. But, I decided to try on the finished yoke piece to determine the fit before I do the next row. I was a little nervous because I'd wouldn't be too happy redoing the entire yoke. The knitting needles were replaced with a piece of scrap yarn. I slipped the yoke over my head and peeked into the mirror. I'm pleased with the fit...not too large or too small! I can replace the needles and knit on! ;D Judy in SE Wisconsin
I'm so happy for you, Judy! After 6 swatches I was unable to meet gauge so I too just started in on the yoke. I'm very nervous but will hopefully happy a pleasant experience as well. *Kristi
Thank you Kristi! The last row (before the sleeves) is an increase row, and I'm trying to figure out how to arrange the increases. It can't be as hard as I'm making it. I think I need a break...with some food. That should do the trick. ;D Judy
Oh, Boo for me! I went ahead and began my tee........ I joined to work in the round because I am leaving out the keyhole.......... but I forgot that since I was not knitting back and forth, when it said to knit 8 rows, I would actually need to alternate a knit row with a purl row to get the same effect as the pattern. Now, after knitting 4 rows, I realize that something is just not looking quite right........... Boo! Now I get to frog and start over! I knew I started early for a reason :I
Pat Johnson
Chesapeake, VA
Pat J: Don't feel bad, I did exactly the same thing and realized it at the same place! Once that top edge starts to roll we knew something was wrong! At least we weren't any further along! Happily knitting correctly now...
Hello stiitchTech, I too am leaning toward a fingering weight yarn. I'm curious if you will adjust the gauge, or live with a more open knit by following the gauge given. I would love to hear about your plan of attack. I'm currently making a swatch in dk and fingering.
Hi, I'm Ann from Pennsylvania. This is my first KAL. I had already planned to make the ruched tee for my granddaughter, although I voted for the Sakura Tee because I thought I'd need more help with that! Anyway, I already had bought yarn for it (she specified pink) - Kraemer Yarns Little Lehigh, a cotton/acrylic blend from my LYS. I'll be swatching this weekend. I'm usually a tight knitter, averaging a needle size larger than what's written on the pattern, but from what others are saying I may end up using the printed needle size on this one. I hope the percentage of acrylic is enough to keep the yarn from stretching too much -- on the other hand, my granddaughter's a growing girl.
Jeanie I'm using the US6 in the Harmony interchangeables. Good Luck!
I'm in. I just have to look up my mag, get the pattern and check my stash for yarn.
This should be fun. I may make the sleeves slightly longer as well, we'll see.
I am thinking of using Louisa Harding Ianthe. Should the swatch be done flat or in the round?

If I get the soapstone countertop it's a solid slab about 1.25" (unlike granite that would be 3/4 inch with a lip of an additional 3/4). Does it sit right on top of the frameless cabinets or is there a base of plywood underneath? If there is a base of plywood doesn't it show? does the edge need to be finished? It would then make the counter 2 inches thick and I would need to adjust the cabinets so they aren't so high. What is the convention for how this works?
Thanks. I'm getting a bit overwhelmed by all the details to consider. |
Follow-Up Postings:
You don't need additional plywood -- the stone sits right on top of the cabinets (either frameless or framed). I gather you are located in the west. In the east, thicker stones (both granite and soapstone) are the norm, and plywood on top of cabinets is not necessary or common. |
- Posted by itsallaboutthefood (My Page) on Mon, Aug 6, 12 at 10:57
I have frameless cabinets with 3 cm soapstone. The stone sits right on he cabinets ... no plywood underneath. |
Thanks for the feedback. Yes, I am on the west coast. This is good news. One less thing to worry about. |

Vic Toews applauds Ontario court's rejection of bid to save gun-registry data
Canada's public safety minister is applauding an Ontario Superior Court's rejection of a bid to preserve long gun-registry data.

OTTAWA—Canada's public safety minister is applauding an Ontario Superior Court's rejection of a bid to preserve long gun-registry data.
Vic Toews called the ruling an "absolute victory for the rule of law."
The Toronto court had heard a motion from the Barbra Schlifer Commemorative Clinic for an emergency injunction that would have prevented the federal government from destroying long-gun data in a federal registry that's been abolished.
Justice D.M. Brown declined to grant the injunction, rejecting arguments that the destruction would be a violation of the Charter of Rights.
The City of Toronto had supported the motion, though the province did not.
The ruling follows a successful court application by the Quebec government to preserve long-gun registry data in that province.
Last week, Superior Court Judge Marc-Andre Blanchard voided two sections of the Conservative government's legislation to scrap the long-gun registry.
The judge ordered Ottawa to surrender all records on Quebec-owned rifles and shotguns in the registry to the province within 30 days.
Minister of State Maxime Bernier told the House of Commons on Monday the government will appeal the Quebec court decision.
The Conservative government has said that any province wanting its own long-gun registry is welcome to create one from scratch.
"We were very pleased that the Ontario Superior Court has ruled in favour of law-abiding hunters, farmers and sport shooters," Toews said in a statement Friday.
"The will of Parliament and Canadians has been clear. We do not want any form of a wasteful and ineffective long-gun registry."
An outspoken proponent of the registry said the fight will continue.
"This decision is a setback but we will continue to fight for sensible controls on rifles and shotguns," Wendy Cukier of the Coalition for Gun Control said in a statement.
"Information about who owns what guns is essential to reducing the diversion of guns to illegal markets and the registry has been shown to be useful in solving crimes."

With that being said, im getting my lift on monday and am going to get 5100 @ the 2.5 setting while running stock coils and maybe a 1 inch add a leaf in the back. My concern is that it was commented that at the 2.5 setting my ride would be stiff any comments from those with a similar set up would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Not much has changed at Fink Flowers & Gifts in the last half a century. The fragrant boutique still has the same address it did when it opened in 1956. It's still manned by the same family that's been filling vases, wrangling stuffed animals, and arranging scrumptious gift baskets for three generations. It's this consistency that has kept guests coming back for all their floral needs, as well as greeting cards, candles, and original paintings by Artists of Bristol on the Delaware. First-timers to the shop step into what feels like a scene out of a fairy tale. Dotted with vivid butterflies, winding vines crisscross the boutique's ceiling, suspended above shelves crowded with vibrant bouquets and eclectic seasonal displays. The staff invites visitors to recycle by bringing empty vases, wicker baskets, or farm-raised piñatas to the shop; the empty vessels can be exchanged for a free loose bunch of flowers.
With thousands of frame and mat samples, The Great Frame Up can satisfy any and all framing fantasies. The expert framespeople can make diplomas radiate (most diplomas can be framed for around $100-$200), personalized jerseys glisten (most for under $300), and dorm-room movie posters sparkle (many 24" x 36" pieces are under $100). The design wizards can also find a home for any prized possession, such as shoebox photos, baby booties, ticket stubs, medals, and really good pot roasts. The Great Frame Up's no-hassle guarantee and assurance that all work is done on-site means your frameables won't be subject to mistreatment at underground commercial framing facilities.

In addition to classically vibrant floral arrangements such as the Cherish Spring ($55–$75), Perfect Love ($75–$100), and Here Comes the Sun ($40–$50) bouquets, Parker's offers modern and tropical designs, fruity and fulfilling gift baskets, and a wide range of unique house plants and orchids.

Now at 100% running Furmark, yes, very loud. As Maxwell Smart would say, "That's the SECOND loudest GPU I've ever heard." The 7800 GTX 512 is still king of the loudest GPU I've ever owned.

Over the past few weeks, I've been hearing quite a bit about monogamy—especially within the context of human marriage and what is supposedly "natural." I use the quotes intentionally.

Meek is saying the girl your with wants expensive shit you cant afford. A repossession (repo) is when you do not keep up with the bills on a house, car etc. and the vehicle or home is taken away.
The second meaning is he will take her back like 'repo' one of his old Cassidy Disses.

Oxford's Bodleian Library has had book on high shelves for 400 years. The health and safety people took away the step ladders. Librarians refuse to move the books from their "historic location(s)."
Not having access to necessary books can be very inconvenient. Therefore, I believe Oxford university might be able to get the copies of the books in order for the students to use them for their assignments. Also, they can try to scan the book(like Google Books) and make it available online for the students to see.
The library's director, Laurence Benson said that he would prefer to keep the books in their original historic location. However, I came to think of something. Aren't books there for students to read? What's the point of preserving the books if they're not going to be read by anybody? Despite the fact that the books are very old, I believe if the students need them, they should have access to the books.
I wonder what their lead content is like....
I agree with the library's position: leave the books where they have been for hundreds of years. If it's unsafe in the 21st Century for humans to use ladders, then we don't deserve to have access to books (until we evolve taller or grow wings).

Have any of you used Acidophilus & Bifidus for gas/flatulence and have you had any success? I did a research but nothing came up. Thanks. |
Follow-Up Postings:
no, I haven't used it for that, and it doesn't work for me for that, but it probably depends on what's causing the gas. Those are good buggies to have in your gut, in fact, without them, you'd be a sorry puppy, but you may need to find out the cause of your gas... if it's foods like broccoli and beans and such, they are gas causing plants, if it's something like irritable bowel syndrome, again, I don't think that they would help. But like I said, they are good to have in your gut! :) |
Thanks for commenting heathen1. Yesterday I had beans and there was less gas, today I'm having broccoli so will see how it goes. According to the info from internet it may produce more gas for the first few days. Another thing was told to take it on empty stomach in morning and at night yet on the bottle is says to take it half an hour after a meal. If this works will buy another bottle as I would hate of omit all of the food causing gas. |
I think that if it is the broccoli or beans causing the gas, if you just eat it a lot, you get used to it and it doesn't produce as much gas. I have thought about buying those expensive bottles, but just decided I like yogurt enough, so I eat that. I don't think that you have to continue eating the A & B, as they stay in your gut and proliferate unless you kill them with say antibiotics or alcohol. |
No, it's not just two gassy foods, most the healthy ones seem to be the problem. I would hate to start cutting out healthy foods, such as fruits and vegetables, whole grains, legumes, and milk products. Just found out that Enzymes are needed to go with A & B especially since I have breakfast of Oats and/or bran with milk. Yogurt is one of the culprits for me too. |
Wheat causes gas for me. I take A & B on a daily basis, and if I feel bloated or have an uncomfortable stomach I reach for my aloe vera stomach formula....it's great stuff. I can even get DH to use it as it seems to give almost immediate relief! Maybe you just need to do a little cleansing by drinking a fair amount of water??? |
Do drink plenty of water and it's doesn't seem to help. Once I finish A & B and Organika Full Spectrum Enzymes will look for something else. My problem seems to be more in the evening than during the day. |

Costner Steps Up to Bat and Takes a 'Swing'
With a career spanning political sagas, thrillers, comedies, cowboy movies, science fiction, crime yarns, family dramas and action films, Kevin Costner is a hard man to pin down. And that's how he likes it.
His latest film, "Swing Vote," is a Frank Capra-style slice of Americana starring Costner as a likable oaf whose ballot will decide a deadlocked Presidential election. While it would have been a snap to find studio financing for a "Bodyguard II," this gentle comedy was a hard sell. So Costner stepped up with more than $20 million of his own to get it made. During a recent promotional tour, he explained why he dislikes repeating himself, the state of American politics and the importance of taking risks.
"I probably could have made a series of the same movie, but that's not my style," said the two-time Oscar winner. "My next is a horror movie. My hope is that it'll be really good but it's not a slam dunk, and I have a tendency to go for movies like that, like 'Field of Dreams.'
"In retrospect, a lot of people enjoyed 'Field of Dreams,' but that movie stood a good chance of not working. A big chance. The question is, can you ride the edge? With the horror movie, I think we have a chance of making a classic in that genre. Maybe we haven't, maybe we have, but that's more intriguing to me than just making something where we know how it works."
In truth, Costner said, he aims to make every project a potential classic. "I wouldn't think that would be that different than anybody else. They're so hard to make anyway. Why would you make a movie if you didn't think it had a chance to live beyond its opening weekend? I'm not immune to wanting my movies to make money because I do, my first instinct is, do I think people could like this?"
In "Swing Vote," his character is a goofball poultry-plant worker who must break the electoral tie, although he's unprepared for the awesome responsibility. Once the improbable premise is in place, Costner said, it was vital to give everything else in the film "a semblance of truth and honesty." The film balances weighty affairs of state against an intimate father-daughter relationship as Costner's precocious daughter, played by Madeline Carroll, tutors him on his civic responsibilities.
The script appealed to Costner because it allowed him to "bring a physical comedy to it that I don't often get to show" while making lighthearted (and serious) points about the process the star calls "our national four-year debacle."
Carroll informs her poor but oblivious dad that "neither party represents the interests of the working poor." Costner, who drove trucks and worked on fishing boats before his acting career took off, said he could sympathize.
"It's not hard to relate to someone like that," he explained. "When I graduated college and everyone knew what they wanted to be doing, getting their first job, their first house, a company car, I became a stage manager for $3.50 an hour. And I was happy to have that job. I worked those blue-collar jobs. Framed houses, stood walls. I didn't know this was going to happen, I just wanted to find my direction in life. I hit the jackpot, but I didn't make a check in this particular function for seven years."
Costner said he's pleased his film takes an evenhanded approach to satirizing both Democrats and Republicans. "I didn't want to apologize about the film reflecting my politics. It exposes human nature, not party. It's a message movie only in that it's a good comedy."

I have seen before on this forum the advice that if you are granite templating, or installing the granite, but you don't yet have your faucet (it's on backorder, or you just haven't chosen it yet), you can just use your old faucet or any cheapo faucet in the meantime until you get the faucet you want. So, does that advice mean that all faucets' mounting holes are the same standard diameter? Or maybe most of them are the same diameter? If so, what is that standard measurement?
What about pre-rinse style faucets--are they still a standard size mounting hole? Or European-made faucets like Grohe or KWC--would they have the same mounting hole diameter as an American-made kitchen faucet? I would think this dimension would be important for countertop templating. Like, what if you have an old Kohler, and you haven't chosen your new faucet yet, but you know it's going to be a sleek European something--can you just use the same mounting hole size? I would appreciate anyone's info on this! |
Follow-Up Postings:
Yep. All the same. Air switch hole. Air gap hole. Faucet hole. Sprayer hole. Soap dispenser hole. Instant hot dispenser. All standard. But how MANY holes and where they go--of that you want to be sure before drilling. |
They are almost all a standard size. The PDF you can see on the manufacturer's site will tell you what size (or range of ) will be good for the device you haven't got yet. |
- Posted by montanamaven (My Page) on Thu, Apr 29, 10 at 17:15
All standard except for my Kohler Karbon. The faucet part itself was standard, but not the handle that controls the on/off and cold/hot. That was 2 in. I gave the specs to the fabricators, but they didn't look. They cut the whole 11 3/8. So we had to drill the hole larger by calling in our tile guy with the diamond saw and clamping the Caesarstone done really well to drill the hole. So look carefully at the specs. |

Back on Feburary 25, 2009 Kathy Padilla wrote a post over at Pam's House Blend titled "Hate Crimes & ENDA: Bad Bills Come and Bad Bills Go". When it came out I really thought it would be one of those explosive posts that rocked the community down to the bone. She said:
"The new definitions can generally be said to cover gender expression but not gender identity. Which in the real world would present the likelihood that gender variant gay, straight and transgender people who don't medically transition would be covered by the Hate Crimes Bill (and ENDA if it imports the language). Transsexuals would not be covered."

M/I Homes Announces Pricing Of Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes Due 2018 And 2.14 Million Common Shares
COLUMBUS, Ohio, March 5, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- M/I Homes, Inc. (NYSE: MHO) today announced the pricing and upsizing to $75 million aggregate principal amount of its previously announced public offering of convertible senior subordinated notes due 2018. The Company also granted to the underwriters an option to purchase up to an additional $11.25 million aggregate principal amount of notes. Citigroup, J.P. Morgan and Wells Fargo Securities are acting as joint book-running managers for the notes offering.
The notes will pay interest semi-annually in arrears at a rate of 3.0% per year and will mature on March 1, 2018, unless earlier redeemed, purchased or converted. On or after March 6, 2016, the Company may redeem for cash any or all of the notes under certain circumstances. The notes are convertible into the Company's common shares at an initial conversion rate of 30.9478 common shares per $1,000 principal amount of notes, which is equal to a conversion price of approximately $32.31 per share, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. The notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior subordinated unsecured basis by those subsidiaries of the Company that, as of the date of issuance of the notes, are guarantors under the Company's outstanding 8.625% Senior Notes due 2018 and outstanding 3.25% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2017.

Morgan, Citigroup and Wells Fargo Securities are acting as joint book-running managers for the offering of common shares.
The Company intends to use approximately $50 million of the net proceeds of the notes offering and the concurrent offering of common shares to redeem 2,000 of its outstanding 9.75% Series A Preferred Shares and to use the balance of such net proceeds for general corporate purposes, which may include acquisitions of land, land development, home construction, repayment of indebtedness or dividends on, or further redemptions of, its 9.75% Series A Preferred Shares.

I'm new at gardening and I was looking at a book. We have this wonderful huge yard with a gradual slope down. There is a public walkway by the side of this slope. I was inspired to make a rustic type arbour "hall" down (actually meandering) the expanse of grass, parallel to the walkway. I would love to having climbing roses on it. Is this a totally crazy idea for Canada? We have such a short growing season here...would the trellis "ever" look full and lush and full of blooms? Would it take too many years to build this up? Would it look alright in the winter? I would like to do "maple saplings" bound together and not wood as we want to keep it casual. Is this another fairytale? |

Yes, it is possible to do the rose arbor thing, though you will need to lower your expectations significantly from warm zone, book-quality specimens! Just choose hardy "climbing" rose varieties, e.g. 'John Cabot', 'William Baffin', etc.. I'm sure someone else will be happy to tell you all about the local gardening society, and urge you to join....and I'm happy to let them do it, LOL! |

Why, Lori, could you be referring to moi? Happy to step up and oblige!! MusicalMommy, if you're interested in gardening in Calgary, you should investigate the many advantages of joining the Calgary Horticultural Society. I've been a member for several years, and have benefitted from (among other things) the information in their newsletters, their members-only garden tours, their plant exchanges, and (my favourite) discounts at many garden-related businesses. If, like me, you spend more than a little bit at the nurseries each year, your membership fee is paid back several times over with the discounts! I'm not on the executive, and never have been. I volunteer from time to time, for certain events, but I'm generally too busy to even attend their monthly meetings. Still, I've gained a great deal of knowledge, inspiration and confidence from this group, so I'm a big fan. I belong to other specialist plant societies in the city, and benefit from each of them, but the CHS is my favourite. Check out the information in their website and see if the society is right for you. The member section outlines all the member benefits. I don't know if all the passports have been sold out, by now, but you could check into this coming weekend's viewing of the annual garden competition winning gardens. You'd get a lot of inspiration and ideas from those. You don't have to be a member to buy a passport. The information is on the website, but you have to dig a bit (easy for a gardener, eh?) to find all the locations that are selling the passports. ($20 for non-member for the 2 days...with many, many gardens to see.) Welcome to gardening. Enjoy the process and keep dreaming. More is possible than you can imagine, even in our climate. Keep getting help and ideas on this forum, too, and come join the many Calgary gardeners who tend to congregate over in the Far North Forum! ;-) Doris |

Thank you Lori and Doris! I will look into the Horticultural Society. I sort of heard about it "in passing" and didn't know it was something lay people could join. For some reason, I thought it was some sort of professional society. I will check out the website. |

Hi, MusicalMommy. I hope you're still monitoring this thread. I went on the first day of the Winning Gardens Tour, and took some photos of a lovely rose arbour that I'd like to share with you (I hope the garden owners don't mind!!) The rose, on each side of the arbour, is 'William Baffin'. The gardener said he lowers the canes from the arbour each winter, but I'm not convinced that's necessary. I have 'Wm. Baffin' in my garden, growing as a rather rangy bush, and it doesn't seem to need protection (there is winter kill most years, but the rose blooms on new wood, so I just prune out the dead stuff...the new canes grow quite quickly). This rose tends to sucker, but I don't mind because the suckers bloom true to type, and the suckers are growing in just the right places. If you grow it as a climbing rose, you'd have to be more ruthless with your secateurs. There are other hardy roses that can be used as climbers...'John Cabot' comes to mind (it's a redder pink). I forgot to ask how old the roses were on the arbour. However, these photos show you that it is possible to have a rose arbour in Calgary. Doris |
Doris.... thanks for the pics.... they sure make me a rosaphile....lol...I just love any excuse to arbor, trellis, pergola my gardenscape..... so William Bffin, here I come! Sure wish I could belong to a local horticultural enclave of enthusiasts...but alas, living in the hinterlands has its trade-ofs...:o( Ron |

Ron, send us a photo of your rose arbour, once you have it built and planted next year. By the way, you can be an honourary member of the Calgary Hort Society, if you want. It would be a bit of a drive for you to do the garden tours, though. ;-) Doris |
hmmm. i reside in Calgary too and i am seriously considering joining, especially for the upcoming Plant Share event. |
Yes,Doris, a bit of a commute for sure..... this Dorothy can't get the knack of clickin' her heels to summon a chinook to deposit him in the midst of a CHS meeting...lol Yes, I will begin to master digital picsmithing and someday festoon this site with my Avalon West.....lol.... well, each of us must see our little God-given plots to steward as special,eh! The weather you Calgarians seem to be getting these days makes me very thankful for our 'reasonably seasonal' weather.... though I wonder about its variableness daily! Ron |

Tested – Valve's Steam for Linux beta
Steam Punk
Steam for Linux finally brings current games to the Linux desktop. Valve has put a lot of energy into the project, but the first steps on the new terrain still look a little shaky.
Games vendor Valve has ported its Steam platform to Linux, thus shifting the free platform into the focus of serious gamers. The manufacturer recently invited some users to participate in a closed beta phase. I took a look at the trial version of the Steam client, which still has some quirks.
Officially, Valve only supports Ubuntu and other Debian-based distributions, so I used a recent version of Ubuntu (12.10 "Quantal Quetzal") in my tests. With some tinkering, you can talk Steam into cooperating with other distributions. The "Valve's Strategy" box explains why the company uses Linux as a platform.

Cross-posted from Flooring, because I'm not sure which forum Bill V and Mongo (the BR and tile gods!) check most often - this forum seems more active. :-)
Hello Stone Tile Gurus,
The lippage is minimal, the grout lines pretty well straight with the 1/16" spacing, and the thinset seems to be cured from the little I can access between the grout lines and at the edge where I've yet to install the transition. My fear is that the darkening of the tiles may not be self-correcting as they dry. The tiles were unsealed (I was planning on sealing before grouting, but didn't want to seal before laying for fear it would negatively impact the bond with the thinset) and only the ones cut by a wet saw were moistened before laying. Does the darkening mean that the tiles have absorbed the latex additive and been permanently stained from beneath, or are they just taking longer to dry than I've seen on granite counters? I'd really hate to have to take them back up - the bond seems reallly good and the spacing/levelness I'm really happy with, so I'm hoping time will cure what ails them. How long should it take for 12"x12" porous granite tiles to dry out to their final color? These were purchased to coordinate with the vanity counter that's going in, so I'm really hoping the thinset hasn't darkened them permantly. Thoughts? |

I just had my granite guy here yesterday to once again polish and seal my bathroom granite. You can see my new post I just submitted. I think you have to let the granite dry well and it may lighten back up. My guy said that if you seal over a wet spot then it will stay darker. |
Give it time, it can take days...a week...even longer. Depends. Example, over Ditra or another type of membrane, that can take longer than over cement board since with a membrane the moisture can only escape "up". Modified thinsets (chemical cure plus air drying) can take longer than non-modified (chemical cure) due to the air drying requirement. Drying will usually lighten it right back up. White thinset was the wise choice. The latex modifier shouldn't be an issue, but it can sometimes effect a slight change, it really depends. Most "splotchy" problems arise when mastic is used, those stains are indeed stains. Oil, etc. If you intend on sealing, don't seal the granite until you're happy with the lightening. Just like bamboosmom advised. Realize that a sealer can darken it too. If you can, also hold off on grouting. That'll give the moisture not consumed by hydration extra time to escape, for it to dry out as needed. A lot of variables. But time will tell... |
Thank you both for very encouraging and knowledgable replies - tremendously appreciated! I'll hold off on both sealing and grouting until it's dried, as suggested. I'd much rather have my timetable stretched by waiting for it to dry rather than by having to re-do! Thank you again! |
- Posted by bill_vincent (email@example.com) on Tue, Oct 25, 11 at 21:37
This is to be expected. it'll take about 2-3 weeks to completely dry out, but it WILL dry out. Most "splotchy" problems arise when mastic is used, or when it's been spot set: Difference is with thinset, the splpotchiness will pass within a couple of weeks as I said above. if it';s mastic, it'll be there for months before it disappears. |
Thank you very much for the further confirmation, Bill. I'll plan on painting the walls this weekend instead of sealing and grouting, and will hold off on those until it's back to the tone of the 'pre-laid' tiles I have left over. I've got until Christmas when DD and her DH visit to get this bathroom finished, so I'll let the tile dry at it's own pace before doing anything further to it. Thank you again, I really appreciate the expert opinions! Your and Mongo's expert advice got me successfully though 2 bathroom remods earlier this year, and I have complete faith in the advice on this final remod - want to thank you both for your wonderful FAQ's on tile and plumbing fixtures - I'd have had sooo many more problems with these bathrooms if not for the wonderful info you've both posted. Thank you both - you are a true GW treasure! (waiting patiently for my tile to dry now....) |
Glad to have been of help. Enjoy your rest while things dry out. |

What he said -- bill and mongoct, you two guys are so terrific. I get a lot of information out of your responses, even though they're not directed at me. Keep up the good work!! |
Well, while I appreciate the accolades, I have to deflect a lot of the "tile appreciation sentiment" to Bill. On GW, Bill is "the man" when it comes to all things tile. I can answer most of the common problems we encounter here on GW, but Bill has technical and materials knowledge way beyond what I know. One of these times when I head up to Maine I'll have to buy Bill a beer, a cup of coffee, or a bag of thinset. His choice. Hey, coffee and donuts at Congdon's Donuts! We can get caffeinated and get a sugar high at the same time. Actually I'll pass on a donut but go for an apple fritter. Or two. Or three. lol Best to all! |

Rizon Jet (stand 340) is ready to showcase itself to the business aviation world with a new exhibition stand at MEBA.
"MEBA provides an excellent networking opportunity for all exhibitors and we look forward to welcoming visitors from the private sector, government representatives, corporate decision-makers and business people to our new stand, which unmistakably represents our corporate identity", says Capt Hassan Al-Mousawi, CEO of Rizon Jet.
The Qatar-headquartered private aviation services provider says a busy summer, Ramadan and Eid contributed to steady growth and a high level of uptake of the company's business aviation offerings in the Middle East and Europe.
The new exhibition stand closely follows the look and feel of Rizon Jet's VIP terminal in Doha. Modern Middle Eastern design elements and luxury finishes have been used by events and exhibitions agency 2heads throughout their design for the stand.
"2heads is delighted to be working with Rizon Jet on this exciting project for MEBA", says Steve Gibson, business development director for 2heads. "Our stand designer has created the perfect environment for Rizon Jet to promote its world class VIP terminal and services, and for its executives to conduct business meetings in a relaxed and professional environment. Critical to the design was the way 2heads translated Rizon Jet's luxurious business lounges and VIP levels of service into a temporary exhibition environment. The design, with Arabic influences, closely follows the Rizon Jet brand, colours and finishes with quality materials used throughout."
