I'm trying to hone down decisions in some known trouble spots in my layout while awaiting estimates. One of them in about what (if anything) to do in the adjoining DR. The dining area is small. We have a 2-sided fireplace on one wall and sliding doors on the opposite wall. It opens up to the kitchen on the 3rd side. Originally, I was thinking I'd do a banquette on the back wall. However, they are considerably deeper than perhaps we can go. So, then I scratched the entire idea. However, it seems like no matter what layout I go with, I could use more storage. Not only for the kitchen, but for this very small house. So, I started thinking a wall of less deep (maybe 12"?) tall cabinets from floor to ceiling that would allow for a small broom closet, extra storage for the kitchen and maybe even space for the crap that gets put in the front closet because we can't allow it to get frozen (spackle, paint, etc). Here's the original banquette idea: I know things would be hard to reach behind the table. I'd put stuff back there we didn't need often. Though, depending on what we get figured out for the kitchen space, the area to the right which is most accessible might need to be pantry space instead of broom closet... My concerns are both about aesthetics and functionality. |
Follow-Up Postings:
It'll unquestionably make the room feel smaller, but if you really need the storage this would be a great way to get it. Twelve inch deep storage holds almost everything used in a kitchen and a lot of it. Those end cabinets would be complete pantries. I know because I've had them. If carried out aesthetically, it could also be very aesthetically pleasing and end up copied by thousands of space-challenged admirers. :) How about leaving a largish niche in the middle for decorative display and to make the area feel that much larger (what would a mirror reflect if you put one in there?). Something more like a built in sideboard with hutch over could also be very attractive or, if you have books, inclusion of bookshelves to add their special character and warmth. |
Thanks for your thoughts, Rosie. A mirror on that wall would reflect the kitchen (most likely the range and hood). Space is such a premium here. I worry about losing the floor space. Then, on the other hand, storage is such a premium around here, I worry about losing the storage possibilities! The KD I spoke with talked about making the center more open with a counter there to place things. I get that idea. I just don't know how functional it is to put, say, buffet items or drinks behind the chair if someone is actually sitting there... Do you think the wall of just cabinets, floor to ceiling, looks bad aesthetically? |
That looks pretty tight, but difficult to judge from that one picture. Can you step back and take it again to show more of the space and maybe from another angle? Can't tell if there is any space behind the settee or if it's against the wall. Thanks. |
The bench is against the wall, island. It's set back in the picture from the table, though. And yes, it's tight. The whole house is tight. I'm not in a position to take pics right now. I'm also not sure how much another picture would help. I can get the dimensions for you.. The room is basically 9'10" wide by 9'5" long. I guess the question ultimately comes down to... when the space is tight, does it makes more sense to maximize storage or maximize floor space. Because one of them has to be sacrificed. Big time. Unfortunately. |
I'm no expert but I think the banquette would look great. And by flanking it with tall cabinets and building in storage under the seat (for less used items, maybe holiday stuff) it gives you the best of both - a bit more storage, and also maximizes space with wall seating. Would you add the window above as in the sketch? If not, maybe an open shelf across the top would be an option for a bit of extra storage/display? To have the wall cabinets behind, you would need enough room for the cabinets + walking behind chairs + room for chairs to pull away from table to sit. That seems like it might push your table quite far into the room? |
Thanks for weighing in, swirlycat. The banquette is not an option unless we stick with narrow cabinets on each side and have the banquette stick out more so it is functional and people can actually sit on it. I'm not sure how that would look but I fear it loses something compared to the inspiration picture... I need twice as much depth or more to make a banquette seat happen - and then it starts running into the fireplace surround. Literally. (There's about 24 inches between the wall and end of the mantle). And those windows you were seeing were upper cabinets. Not sure I would go that way, or with shelves for that matter, but I was playing with it when I did that mock-up eons ago. I really don't need display storage, it's really more about hiding stuff you just need a place for, you know? I've been playing with the dimensions and I can walk behind the table with a chair tucked in with ease when I block out 12" deep cabinets. If someone is sitting there, that's another story. Of course, that's the same problem I have now and will forever in this home. It's just the nature of the beast. When someone is sitting there, which is when we have guests, we go around the table the other way. |
Your dining room is so pretty. I think I would give up 12" of floor space for an amazing amount of storage. Instead of doing the whole cabinet in wood doors maybe you could do a few glass fronted doors towards the top that wouldn't be accessed often to put some attractive display items. That would break up the expanse and add some visual interest, while giving you much needed storage You can go with a slightly longer table with a chair at each end and a bench towards the kichen side of the table to allow space for easier access to your cabs, as the cabinet side of the table wouldn't have chairs or a bench in the way. You could also do a bench that has storage under the seat. You could add mirrors to either end of the table behind the chairs. That will open the space up without reflecting your kitchen. If you hang a lovely light over the table the light will look even brighter because of the mirrors. |
Thanks, hollykay. I really appreciate the ideas and "votes", so to speak. Interesting idea to use a bench instead of chairs. In the right set-up, that could save space for sure. I'm in love with expensive, one of a kind tables made out of ancient wood they are reclaiming... Some of them are quite narrow, which appeals to me for obvious reasons. Though, I also haven't ruled out a round table. I do know I am sort of sick of this one... I'm not sure where you are thinking the mirrors could go, though? Are you thinking the mantle wall? |
I think your dining room would look stunning with building the cabinets around the fireplace wall instead of the adjacent wall. It may not get enough storage, but still a lot and a very aesthetically pleasing result as well. You may want to consider posting this same question on the decorating forum for a slightly different slant on this question looking at it not only from a kitchen perspective, but from what would work well for your overall decor in your dining room so as to achieve a cohesive look between the two rooms. |
Yes the mantle wall and the wall opposite the mantle wall. Unless that is your entry into the kitchen. |
I think if storage is your main concern, I would to the cabinets on the back wall. I agree with hollykay above also. I would break up the solid doors with some glass doors just to take away from the heaviness of the wall of cabinets. You could even do some semi opaque glass so you could still "hide" stuff in them. |

Both space and storage are a concern....personally, when I am faced with sacrificing one, I'll opt for storage because if you don't have a good place to store your stuff, it's going to be out where you don't want to see it and it'll make the place look cluttered. |
Maybe having 3 cabinets with 2 vertical and 2 horizontal doors may look better. Also knobs/a glossy finish/plain doors may be considered. I think, if you find a suitable sized rectangular or oval or octagonal table you can at least have easy access to the cabinets on the sides. |
I agree that you need a long narrow table. Keep the side of the table closest to the cabinet walls devoid of furniture but the two end chairs and a bench along the other side will give seating for four. A round table, though pretty, would take up too much space. |

Looking at the picture of your actual eating space, I would not want to lose ANY floor space on any side. I used to have an 8' x 8' x 8' ceiling kitchen eating area, and was going to put 24" high upper storage cabinets along one wall from 6' to 8' high. In your space I might try 9" deep 24" high (or taller if your ceiling is higher) cabinet's along both side walls, and 12" deep ones along the back wall, with perhaps an arch across the 4th side of the room to connect the cabinets. I'm not sure how this would look or feel, but I'd draw it on a 3D program to see what it looks like and consider it. It would give you a lot of storage. You might want to adjust the heights of the side cabinets to account for the fireplace mantel and the doorway, but I'd experiment with this before I'd give up floor space. Anne |

My friend did a window seat that turned into a banquette. My opinion - do the banquette/window seat with 12" deep cabs floor to ceiling. Have them wall to wall. Can you take a picture deadon to the direplace? This will give us a better idea of the space. |
@valinsv - Thanks for the idea. We've stared at that fireplace wall quite a bit trying to envision ways to add cabinets given the lines of the mantle. I still don't see it, personally, and my partner doesn't want to recess the fireplace (which is his baby, it was his first woodworking project to make that mantle). A cabinet on the left side would be very convenient to the kitchen, though. @ holly-kay - thanks again. The mantle wall could work for a mirror, reflecting the outside. The opposite wall is basically the sliders. I am also leaning towards a longer, narrow table. If I don't go with these cabinets, round could still work, I suppose. @rkb21 - I agree it might look a lot better to cap the tall cabinets with glass doors. I'll play around with that. @andreak100 - I appreciate your perspective. I hear a lot about built-ins making small spaces work and this is surely a chance to do something like that. One way or another, I need to declutter and get things streamlined. @sena01 - thanks a lot for your input. I can't wait until I can shop for a DR table. @jimandanne_mi - thanks for your input. I'm having trouble envisioning uppers throughout the space but can surely play around with it on the layout program and see. I do appreciate your protection of the floorspace. This is not an easy call... @motherof3sons - I'll try to get another picture of the DR here soon. To be frank, the rooms are so small it can be hard to capture it in pics. Do you think a banquette would work with less deep cabinets on the sides? I'm trying to picture it. I guess that's another thing to experiment with on the layout program... I guess I could always hold off on this until the kitchen is in and see how storage is looking then. I just know that with the DR cabinets, I'd have the luxury of too much storage. Without it, I really fear I won't have enough. Thanks so much for the input, everyone. |
I just saw your inspiration picture on Houzz when looking at eat-in kitchens and thought that it would be an incredible waste of space in a small-ish room. Unless you are utilizing otherwise wasted space under a window, already have an architecturally defined nook, or love reading there, a banquette bench may be not so practical. The storage space underneath is really only for rarely used items as you are not going to open a bench with a seat too often while tall cabinets will be completely utilized. You cannot seat more than two people comfortably - which can be achieve with chairs as well. I have had a bench in my dining room for 10 years and trust me, I would have already gotten rid of it had it not been so expensive (still might). :-) I like your sketch with cabinets on that entire back wall. IDK the dimensions of your room but it does not look too small on that drawing. You can paint the cabinets the same color as your kitchen cabs to "unify" the two spaces - or you can paint them the same color as the walls to make them blend-in and sort of "disappear". Putting cabinets around the fireplace sounds like a good idea too. Notice that your inspiration room is a lot bigger than your DR. I just don't a bench being a good solution for you space. Just my 2 cents... |

Late to the party, but I have a couple of similar examples in my house. In one room we have two small window seat/reading nooks, with closets finishing out the wall space (shelves floor to ceiling with full length doors). The seats and closets are only 16" deep, but provide a lot of storage--lots of toy storage for grandchildren at this point. :) The other is a set of vintage cabinets, recently installed in the DR. The bases are also 16" deep, with a counter, and hutch style shelves above. It's nice to have the counter, to serve as a dessert/coffee buffet, when we have a large gathering. The house was built in the late 1920's, and originally had only an under-the-stairs closet, and a couple of small under-the-eaves closets upstairs. I can't tell you how much I appreciate the storage in the new closets and DR cabinets!! If you can possibly sacrifice the floor space, even bookcase depth, go for it! |
What mama-goose said! I always miss having a counter space in the dining room. If it were my room, I'd make three sets of cabinets instead of four and make the middle tall cabinet shorter to have a counter underneath. I think it would give the room more visual depth and kill three birds one stone as you'll also have a counter and storage. :-) You can even put a mirror on the wall behind the counter. |
@eleena - Interesting perspective on banquettes. Usually they are seen as good solutions for small spaces, but I take your point. The con side of built-ins in small spaces, no doubt, is the desire to rip them out to gain even a few inches of floor space. If I were to do it, it would be a short bench and only enough for seating for one, I imagine. As you noted, my space is a lot smaller. I can't believe I am going in a full circle and even contemplating a banquette again.... I'm glad to hear you think a wall of cabinets might work, anyway. Do you like the idea of the tops being glass so it isn't as heavy? I think I we go that route I would just use the same cabinets as the kitchen, to unify the space. I really don't see how I can do cabinets around the fireplace. I'm having a lot of trouble visualizing it, given the tight space and the lines of the mantle. @mama_goose - I appreciate your votes! Sounds like you have some neat nooks and cabinets in your space, along with closets. I guess I could consider getting standing units instead of cabinets/built-ins... It's just the space is so narrow. It might be hard to find things. Hm.. @suzannesl - I love show and tell! Thanks so much for the pics. Look at how much storage you got out of that solution. And, it looks great. Are those cabinets or furniture pieces? I, too, was drawn to that banquette right away. I'm a little worried if it works as well as my house plans are leaning a tad more to the modern and a tad less to the cottage right now. If I stay in this design phase limbo long enough, though, who knows? I keep circling back around to things... I guess what I worry about is everything involved in getting a banquette right, i.e., dimensions, comfortable seating, cushions, etc. We are trying to DYI as much as we can here and while my partner is talented, I want the project to, you know, FINISH. Quickly, once we start. (A girl can dream) I'll try to play around with the design programs and post some thing if I can find software that allows me to mock up things easily. Thanks so much for the continued feedback! |
Thanks @eleena for chiming in again. When I do mock-ups, I'll do one with a center counter, too. Hopefully the program has options for cabinets that are bar height, so I can try that instead of counter height. Hmm |
Hi, Steph. You guys are talking the direction I was suggesting. A counter could be helpful for dinners in some way, especially if the host was down there to pass stuff around, but above all I think it would be valuable esthetically. I just noticed your question above. I suspect putting all storage doors there would look too utilitarian, no matter how attractive. They'd say "storage" the way a bedroom wall closet does, as opposed to "charming" the way a handsome sideboard and hutch do. Even though a sideboard is a storage piece, it doesn't trumpet it in a "needy" way. Here are a couple of pix, maybe a little over fancy and could be designed even shallower, but they both offer a display place in the middle that retains for the room that visual additional foot and gives opportunity for display. I included the second, not built in, just because of the way mirror helps the eye keep going. The first has glass, but both general ideas could have solid doors and look great because the central display area raises them out of the realm of strict utility. How nice, BTW, that your husband did the fireplace mantle. That's special. Does he have any ideas? |
Hm, hm, hm. Now I am really circling the mulberry bush, Rosie. I'm going to dig out the layout program later today and just try to mock some things up. Thanks so much for the visuals, which are really helpful. I wonder if the same thing can get pulled off if I do floor to ceiling cabinets on the sides? Maybe with glass toppers? I do get the point that the whole wall might look too utilitarian and that there might be value in a counter, especially with a small table. My partner wants to forget about the DR and put baseboard heat all around. *cough* |
Steph, that last picture is exactly what I had in mind. Only I would try to take it to the ceiling if I needed storage. For the same reason, I wouldn't do glass doors as it'd limit me in what I could store there. I think mirror-ed doors will serve the purpose of breaking up monotonicity but will hide the cabinet content. Unless you have some pretty china and glasses you want to display. A friend of mine had an all-glass cupboard in her very small DR and it was a good way to store her formal dinnerware and not make the space look too tight. |

I'll show and tell, lol. The DR cabinets are built in, but this is a progress pic. We bought them from a flea-market vendor who listed them on Craigslist, and offered delivery. They are salvaged from an old school, so they're a little quirky, and required some rebuilding. The room is 13.5x13.5, with a stairway off to the left, behind the old stove. We bought two sets, but only one set had doors, so it was given pride of place in the kitchen. You can see our smaller window seat in the background of this pic: The kitchen opens to the DR on the right side, and the cabinets make it seem more like one room. On the other side of the kitchen is the playroom/gathering room, with the window seats and closets. This is the larger window seat--the smaller one is to the right, with closets on each side (and no baseboard trim, yet.) The closets were built two years before I found the cabinets on CL--it was just coincidence that they are 16" deep, too. Or maybe it was Providence. ;) |
- Posted by waterdamage (My Page) on Tue, May 7, 13 at 21:32
I am probably missing something, but wanted to ask. If you did the banquette, would it be part of the seating for the table? That might save space, I would think, and then maybe the cabinets around it could be deeper? |

Yes, that was my experience as well. I tried building a Cocoa app using only a text editor and a Makefile, and it was a lot of trouble, especially tracking down all the libraries that need to be linked.
Qt "by hand" isn't perfect, but it's better than Cocoa.

From radio guy and music parodist Patrick Charles, a quickly created song about Jaroslav Halak is a freely-downloadable MP3:
(They made a) Bad Trade, a parody of Daniel Powter's Bad Day.
Christopher Pennington, author of this pretty good (and bilingual!) Habs anthem from 2008 (available on iTunes), has teamed up withFelicity Hamer of United Steelworkers of Montreal to produce this parody of Stand By Your Man.
The timing couldn't be better. Today is a critical game.
Finally, an FTQ campaign I can support.
Speaking of Canadiens pride, local musician Daniel Iorio has written another song about his beloved Habs. This one, keeping particularly current, name-drops Gazette sports scribe Pat Hickey, whose car was vandalized by crazed Flyers fans and has been getting a lot of attention for it.
Listen to The Cheese of Philadelphia:
Welcome to the party, Les Justiciers. (They brought us this last year.)
You know, I was rooting for a Bruins win in the last round. Partly because coming back from 3-0 would mean stealing the Canadiens' Cinderella status. Partly because the Canadiens and Bruins have such a rich history. Partly because it was time to take revenge for last year. Partly because I thought our chances were better against them.
But I'm learning to appreciate the value of a Canadiens-Flyers series. We can take revenge for 2008. The matchup has already been billed as Cinderella vs. Cinderella, and made history as the first 7th vs. 8th matchup since the conference system was setup.
And, because the Flyers fans can be just as much assholes as Canadiens fans, it feels good to hate them.
By the end of this series, the streets of Philadelphia will be orange … with blood …
Blood mixed with urine, I guess.
You can tell your team is going somewhere when other people try to take credit for it.
The Toronto Star is grasping at whatever straws they can find to attach their city to our team. And both Toronto and the United States are taking credit for Michael Cammalleri.
But that's the way it is when you've gone from being the underdog to the favourite. Even though technically Philadelphia has the (ever so slightly) better record and home ice advantage, the pundits are finally calling it for the Habs:
Canadiens in four
Canadiens in six
Canadiens in seven
Flyers in seven
Flyers in six
7pm: I get off the metro train at Lucien-L'Allier station. The platform is flooded with red Habs jerseys.
7:07pm: I arrive at the parking lot outside the Bell Centre, which has been designated as a celebration area by the Montreal police. A giant screen is showing RDS, and the speakers have plenty of volume for people to hear. The lot is mostly empty, unlike the Bell Centre itself, but a crowd is slowly forming.
Speaking of clever Canadiens ads, CKAC came up with this simple yet effective one, which appears in today's Journal de Lockout.
Let's hope it's proven right tonight.
I believe.
If you pick up the print version of The Gazette (or at least the sports section), you might have noticed that there's a lot of articles and columns from the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, and before that the Washington Post, commenting on their hockey teams.
Since you may not have picked up the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette recently, you probably haven't seen the Montreal Gazette columns that have appeared in those pages:
Even though, in an ideal world, no sports journalist is biased toward the home team, the reality is that Gazette sports columnists know more about the Canadiens and talk more about the Canadiens than the opposition. There's an unavoidable Montreal-centric perspective. So it's useful to get an idea of the other side.
Sharing copy like this isn't new. Both the Gazette and Post-Gazette have done it before, their editors tell me. The Gazette did it two years ago with the Boston Globe and Philadelphia Inquirer.
"Basically, the idea is to give Gazette readers an in-depth look at the visiting team from reporters who cover that team on a regular basis and know that team as well as our guys know the Canadiens," says Gazette sports editor Stu Cowan. "Also a chance to read some different opinions and styles of hockey writers from other cities."
When the Canadiens faced the Washington Capitals in the first round, Cowan contacted the Washington Post to see if they'd be interested in sharing copy. The Post jumped on board, and columns from Thomas Boswell, Tracee Hamilton and Mike Wise appeared in the Gazette.
(There's a bit of irony here, in that until recently the Gazette was a subscriber to the Washington Post's wire service. The Post cut Canwest off after Canwest filed for creditor protection.)
In Washington, though, there wasn't much reciprocation. Even though the Capitals finished the season as the National Hockey League's best team, there was little space in the sports section of a paper known for political stories to fit what are essentially wire stories from Montreal. In fact, I couldn't find a single Gazette piece that was used in the print version.
The imbalance is particularly striking simply because hockey in the U.S. capital isn't as important as here. They have an NFL team (the Redskins), a baseball team (the *spit*Nationals*spit*), an NBA team (the Wizards), plus college and other sports. Even during the hockey playoffs, they have to devote pages to these.
"When I contacted the Post hockey editor on the weekend of the NFL draft to ask which one of their columnists would be writing on the Caps, the answer was none: they were all writing on the NFL draft, even though the Redskins are brutal," Cowan wrote to me by email. "The Redskins are to D.C. what the Canadiens are to Montreal."
But the Post did use the Gazette pieces online, and it looks like they got some interest there.
"The Gazette columns were a big hit on the Post website throughout the series and on some days recorded higher traffic numbers than our own stories. They enriched and broadened our coverage to a considerable degree," says Matthew Vita, Washington Post sports editor, somewhat press-release-like. "All in all the content-sharing was a great success that we envision using in the future."
After the Canadiens epically came back from a 3-1 series deficit and advanced to the Eastern Conference semifinal, Cowan was himself contacted by two Pittsburgh papers – the Post-Gazette and Tribune-Review – looking to setup a similar agreement. "I had to make a choice and went with the Post-Gazette," Cowan said.
In Pittsburgh, this kind of sharing has gotten routine.
"Every playoff series, we try to hook up with a newspaper to run at least a column a day from 'the other side'," says Post-Gazette Assistant Managing Editor/Sports Jerry Micco. "We do it for other sports, too. Particularly for the Steelers. Throughout the week, we'll do RSS feeds from the opposing newspaper's site as well as trading copy. We rarely have space for copy throughout the week from the opponent, but on the Monday after a game a 'view from XXX' is a mandatory run in our section."
Micco says the agreement has been a win-win for the two papers. He listed two major advantages for him: "1. It frees our writers up to cover the Pens. Even if they write an opponent's story, it's not going to be a column. 2. I allows our readers to get another viewpoint on the series."
Still, the Post-Gazette isn't using nearly as much copy as the Gazette is, even though their sports editor said the Gazette has "excellent hockey writers" and "our fans here want as much hockey as they can get this time of year." They have the Steelers (and its quarterback in the news recently) and Pirates, while Montreal can focus on the Canadiens (with the occasional mention of the Impact), running two or even three pieces a day from the Post-Gazette.
"Basically, the popularity of the Habs in this city goes through the roof during the playoffs, with people who don't normally follow hockey jumping on the bandwagon," Cowan writes. "The copy-sharing agreement allows us to provide additional hockey coverage during the playoffs, with a closer focus on the visiting team."
None of the editors mentioned much about direct response to the enemy copy, so I'll leave that to you: Do you think the new perspective is a valuable contribution, or a waste of space?
For analysis, you can read these columns yesterday and today from Ron Cook and Gene Collier, and these columns from Tracee Hamilton and Mike Wise of the Washington Post.
A fellow editor noticed this ad that appears in Tuesday's Gazette. It's an ad for Ford that seems pretty generic until you think about it for a second.
The text says "Passion to go the distance". Penguins in the windshield, and in the rear-view mirror is the Capitol Building in Washington. At the bottom, the logo of the Canadiens.
Ford hasn't had the best of luck trying to be funny in advertising in Canada, but this one was pretty cute. Not the most subtle ad ever created, but still relatively clever.
And hey, full-page colour ads pay my salary, so I'm not going to complain.
There was something I read recently (and, of course, can't find now that I want to link to it) about car companies wanting to stop having Canadian firms develop their own marketing campaigns. Instead, they could just use U.S. ads in Canada. This is a pretty good reason not only to keep Canadian-specific ad campaigns, but locally-focused ones.
Remember how I said the number of Habs songs was disappointing this season, particularly since the massive roster overhaul over the past year has made those old ones obsolete?
Well Annakin Slayd, who produced music videos in both languages over the past two years, has updated its anglo one for 2010, replacing references to Kovalev and Komisarek with Cammalleri.
UPDATE (July 25): The inevitable parody version went up a few weeks later:
Capitals in four
Capitals in five
Capitals in six
Capitals in seven
Canadiens in seven
Canadiens in six
Canadiens in five
Canadiens in four
Concordia's journalism program, which has been making a habit of posting its class TV productions onto YouTube, has produced this 45-minute documentary about Canadiens fandom – one of the few things we can claim to have an advantage over all the other teams in the NHL.
It features interviews with everyone from Brian Gionta and Maxim Lapierre to Mike Boone, Pierre Houde, Jacques Demers, Réjean Houle and J.T. Utah.
Spoiler alert: The Canadiens aren't a religion, but they do have a lot of enthusiastic fans.
I don't know if it's because of the recession, because nobody expected the Canadiens to even make the playoffs – much less be able to compete against the Washington Capitals – or just because the Justiciers Masqués aren't on the air anymore, but the number of Habs songs and Habs-related song parodies produced in preparation for this year's playoffs is pretty sad compared to previous years.
And if there was ever a year we needed more songs, it's this one. We can't just take the songs from last year and replay them – it's hard to get excited about Saku Koivu, Alex Kovalev, Mike Komisarek and Christopher Higgins since they all play for other teams now.
Still, a few amateur songsters have stepped up to the challenge:

(New to Brewing-bear with me please) I have done 4 brews (5 including this one)2 all malt extract Amber ales and 2 Coopers IPAs. My current batch I wanted to be a little different so I took a Coopers Irish Stout and added 3#dark LME 1/2# Dexstrose 1#Lactose 1/2#Maltodextrin 1/2#Deramera 1/2 oz Cascade Hops 2 packs Coopers dry yeast OG 1066 SG 1024 after 3 days in Primary I probably could have left the extra hops out but I had them and threw them in anyway. Tastes pretty good right now, not really knowing to expect. Any ideas on how long before I should bottle? I have a secondary if needed for conditioning. Any suggestions as to what I could add or take out if I do this one again?
my suggestion is to definately secondary it. I would ferment it for at least another couple weeks in the secondary or until your airlock activity drops down to pretty much nothing. Then bottle. From my experience with stouts they tend to do better with substantially longer aging periods than IPA's or amber ales.
Beer, happy Produce of our Isle/Can sinewy Strength impart, And wearied with Fatigue and Toil/Can cheer each manly Heart. Labour and Art upheld by Thee/Successfully advance, We quaff Thy balmy Juice with Glee/And Water leave to France. Genius of Health, thy grateful Taste/Rivals the Cup of Jove, And warms each English generous Breast/With Liberty and Love!(Rev James Townley, 1751)
+1; you don't need to necessarily rack it over for a true secondary ferment, just leave it in the primary longer. I'm quite happy with my dry Irish stout- I let this one in the fermenter for a month- Great body and flavor (and carbonation, but I keg). Let us know how it turns out!

I have had my LAST unhealthy contribution to a potluck !!! I have a terrible sweet tooth and I tend to indulge it when I bake for a potluck! This last time I baked cookie cups and only two were eaten@ my MOMS Club! Everyone in My MOMS Club does NOT eat healthy! We have a fundraiser set up for Rubio's this week alone! So when I go to a potluck from now on it's fruit salad I'll be bringing! And when I go to the funddraiser .it's salad I'll eat! What about you ? Do you bring healthy food to ...
It's way too easy to be thinking about what comes next, instead of staying focused on what I'm doing. When I stay IN THE MOMENT, I actually get more done: Things run smoother, I have more fun doing everyday things--I enjoy things more-- and I do a better job at WHATEVER I am doing, whether it is an errand, exercise, cooking or eating... It's actually mentally refreshing!
every month I read my food log and see what I am doing wrong
I stay focus on my goals by always reminding myself why I'm doing the things that I do.

Easy-to-follow video tutorials help you learn software, creative, and business skills.Become a member
Now I would like to show you how to use the Welcome Screen. The purpose of the Welcome Screen is not just to greet you when you first launch Elements; in fact, it is intended to serve as a gateway to the Bridge and Elements applications that are installed with Elements 6. Now I have created an alias on my desktop here and if I double-click this alias I can launch Photoshop Elements. So I'm going to go ahead and do that. Double-click. And notice that when I launch the application the Welcome Screen appears. That's what we're seeing here. Now the great thing about the Welcome Screen is it allows you to apply any of these commands here with one simple, easy click of a button. We could start a new project from scratch, we can launch Abode Bridge and browse for specific images that we want to work with in Elements, we can import images from a camera or import from a scanner. We can also open up images that we have recently worked with inside of Elements by clicking any of these links down here and keep in mind these are just images that you have most recently worked with.
Okay, in the bottom of the left corner of the Welcome Screen, we have this option here that says Show At Startup and notice that it is currently enabled and that's why we're seeing the check mark inside of the box. As long as this is enabled, it means that every time that we launch Elements we're going to see the Welcome Screen. Now, something you should know is that all of these commands that are available in here in the Welcome Screen are also available inside of the Elements and Bridge interfaces. So if you would prefer to apply those commands from within the interfaces and not from the Welcome Screen, you can turn this off and then you will no longer see the Welcome Screen every time you launch the application. That is actually what I'm going to do. Clicking on that in order to disable it and notice the warning dialog box that appears. It says that you can turn the Welcome Screen back on by selecting Welcome from the Window menu.
That's good to know because I mean if we ever decide that we do want to use the commands here in the Welcome Screen we can access it from the Welcome menu. I'll go ahead and click OK and then I'm going to close the Welcome Screen just to show you that it wasn't lying. We will go into the Window menu and you will see here is the Welcome command; if I choose it, it brings the back the Welcome Screen, even though we're not showing it at start up. So that's how you can use the Welcome Screen to access any of these commands. Keep in mind that if the Welcome Screen is getting in your way and you would rather those commands by choosing them from within the Elements or Bridge interfaces, you can do so by turning off this option, Show at Startup, and then you no longer have to work with this screen.
Access exercise files from a button right under the course name.
Search within course videos and transcripts, and jump right to the results.
Remove icons showing you already watched videos if you want to start over.
Make the video wide, narrow, full-screen, or pop the player out of the page into its own window.
Click on text in the transcript to jump to that spot in the video. As the video plays, the relevant spot in the transcript will be highlighted.

Raga Therapy for Healing Mind and Body
The therapeutic effect of ragas in Hindustani and Carnatic classical music is a time-tested one, described in the ancient system of Nada Yoga. It channelizes vibrations emanating from sounds to uplift the level of the patients consciousness. Raga Chikitsa, an ancient manuscript in Tanjores Saraswati Mahal Library built by Raja Serfoji, a Maratha king, contains a treasure on ragas and spells out their application and use in fighting common ailments and diseases.
How does the system of Raga therapy actually work? A Raga is the sequence of selected notes (swaras) that lend appropriate mood or emotion in a selective combination. Its a yoga system through the medium of sonorous sounds. Depending on its nature, a raga could induce or intensify joy or sorrow, violence or peace, and it is this quality which forms the basis for musical application. Thus, a whole range of emotions and their nuances could be captured and communicated within certain melodies. Playing, performing and even listening to appropriate ragas can work as a medicine.
To be rendered effective, Ragas are used in a combination with Ayurveda, the ancient science of Vedic healing. A Raga must be played or sung to a patient keeping in mind his/her physical nature of vata, pitta or kapha. The time assigned to the Raga during the day or night is also important. Moreover, it is to be seen whether the time of the day or night is naturally suited to vata, pitta and kapha.
Lets take an example. Early morning is the natural kapha time for Ayurveda. A kapha-type person should be treated to an early morning Raga like Bhairav, to cure physical imbalances. The later part of the morning and afternoon is pitta time. Raga Bilawal can be used during these hours to treat patients. Late afternoon and evening is vata time, when Raga Pooriya Dhanashri and Marwa can be used as a cure. It is very important, however, that the Ayurvedic constitution of the patient be kept in mind as to whether he or she is a vata, pitta or kapha person.
The people at the core of this treatment would be the music therapist, the client, the clinical facility whether at home or in a hospital, and music providers. Music therapists interact with their clients and the use of music. They assess their clients and create a clinical plan for treatment in coordination with the team and client goals. This is what determines the course of clinical sessions. A music therapist works within a client-centered, goal-directed framework.

NAGPUR: Under-fire Nagpur District Badminton Association (NDBA) president Balbir Singh Renu has offered to quit his post if any 'eligible and enthusiastic' person is ready to take his charge and does the job with efficiency.
Reacting to the report carried by TOI on November 19, Renu has admitted that the NDBA has failed in its duty to hold any coaching camp or conduct sufficient tournaments this year but said they are "trying their best to hold a couple of tourneys before the season ends".
"Because of rise in cost of expenses we are unable to conduct tournaments. There are hardly any sponsors to spend around Rs1.5 lakh per tournament. One or two offers are in the pipeline and if things work out we have no reservation in organizing tournaments," said Renu.

fantastic, convenient, quite and --great find!
Great experience in all respects! Booking and follow through is simple and expedient. Owner is a gem to deal with. Accommodations are comfortable with 3BR/3Bath and very nice amenities in the unit, including upgraded kitchen appliances. Location is stellar, just minutes off I-70 but secluded on private "reserve" yet withing easy 10 minute walk to River Walk in Edwards for great restaurants, grocery, movies, shopping, etc. The view out the back to the Eagle River--not to mention the magnificent home "estate" across the river and all the colors along the river and up the mountain is pretty spectacular. Exceptionally quite and peaceful with very courteous and friendly "neighbors" in the building and pretty amazing fishing in the Eagle right out the back door! All in all, an outstanding "find" in the Vail Valley. My compliments to the owner!

Strout & Sons proudly presents RETRO ROBOTS!
One of the greatest arcade games of all time has been reimagined, improved, and brought into the modern age. Play with your iPad in hand, or get the full impact with a compatible tabletop arcade accessory. Retro Robots: it may be mindless, but it sure is fun!
It is the year, let's say, 2199. Evil robots, led by a particularly maniacal model named Evil Botto, have taken over the Earth. You are humanity's last hope, selected to infiltrate the seemingly endless maze of the robot base. Armed with your trusted laser pistol, plus whatever gadgetry you might find, you battle increasingly more capable bots in your quest for the fabled Score of Height.
Move with the on-screen virtual D-pad in the lower left corner of the screen, and fire with the right. Or, if you have a compatible arcade cabinet, then move with the joystick and press any button to fire. (See our website for more help getting that set up.) Tap in the top half of the screen to pause, and then press the fire button to unpause.
Avoid or destroy the robots, as well as the walls, which are deadly to the touch. If overwhelmed, run for an exit — but don't be too quick to take your leave, as powerups will appear only after clearing all the robots in a room. Watch out for Evil Botto, an advanced robot which is both cheerful and deadly.
We are a father-and-sons team whose purpose is threefold: (1) to make fun apps you will want to play; (2) to earn some money towards college; and (3) to keep the boys off the street. No, seriously, the battery on the laptop is shot, so they pretty much have to stay within 10 feet of an outlet while working on this stuff.
This is our very first app in the app store. Programming was done mainly by Kevin (age 11 at the start of the project, age 12 by the time it was finished), with help from Dad. Zach (age 8) provided testing and encouragement (we'll get him sucked into the programming and/or artwork later).
We hope you enjoy the game, and thank you for your support.

Hi all, I'm in the market for two new leather sofas. I'm looking at or thinking of something with a track arm or relaxed version of a contemporary sort. I am not in the Bradington Young or Moore price category. Yet, I'm above the bonded leather Rooms To Go price point. What is a good leather sofa brand for me to check (good bang for the buck) in a mid to mid high price point that has special order leather color selections? I do not want brown, black,white or beige. I do want a creamy color with a tic of yellow. Thank you! |
Follow-Up Postings:
W.Schillig has a nice selection of contemporary sofas, and you can choose leather grade as well (which would then determine the final price). Choice of colors varies, depending on the leather type/grade. You can also choose matching or contrasting stitching at no extra cost. I'm editing this post to also add a pic of our Schillig sectionals. We chose semi-aniline (protected) leather for both of them. They look, and feel very nice. Living Room: Family Room: |

Have you priced the Bradington Young sofas? I just purchased one and would consider it in that price point, well under Hancock Moore. I didn't get the best of the best leather option, but more of a mid-range. It came in under $2500. Another option ...possibly American Leather? |

CatMom, Thanks! I actually found a very nice Schillig sectional on CL but sadly not the right color. ÔĀĆ Kellie, I didn'Äôt know B.Y had an affordable line I'Äôll see if my local Baers store carries that brand although I didn'Äôt see a style I liked online. My3dogs, very very helpful! I forgot about that rating link. I saw lots of styles I liked in Sam Moore but couldn'Äôt seem to find leather. What I did find that I really like the look of is the ELITE leather styles and colors, I liked the Aston and the Pasadena style sofa and they have a leather color called Archet cream that looks like it will work. However, I will need to find a pretty good Presidents Day sale. Would anyone have experience with Elite leather furniture??? |

Some info if you decide to pursue Schillig at all--we got our first sectional in Paramus, NJ (Signature Leather), on sale--I think a President's Day sale, too! LOL The second one we purchased during a trip to Raleigh, NC (Ambiente International). They had a floor model sale going on, and we paid the floor model price (plus an add'l __% off with a flyer or newspaper ad). However, the ottoman had to be ordered (not a stock item), so they ordered a new sectional for us as well--honoring the floor model sale price! FWIW, both places carry different manufacturers as well, and likely have some good sales going on right now. PS neither store charges sales tax for out-of-state deliveries (buyer's responsibility to take care of that). |

Gotta disagree with PB leather. Our Manhattan leather sofa and chair have changed from a cognac color to a yucky shade of greenish yellowish leather. (And they are not in the sun at all). |
You might want to look at Smith Brothers smithbrosfurn.com |

Thanks for that Phronesis! We do not have a dealer in Florida that I could find on their site anyway. I will have to email my location for more dealer info. Very interesting site in that they really explain their product! What I was most impressed with is their seat cushions, what they are made of and how they have a lifetime warranty not to flatten? Wow I'm sold, just wish I had a place to go to around here who sells the brand so I could see in person. The thing that irks me the most about buying furniture it that even after spending a bit more with other brands there is no guarantee on the non-flattening cushion (maybe others have a guarantee but I am unaware). I mean who cares if the constructions good and the leather is fab if it's all going to look like Cr@p due to squashy cushions. After you posted I also googled old gardenweb posts on this brand and they are all very favorable. |
I bought one of their arm chairs about 7 years ago as an impulse buy (which I never ever do with things this expensive) because it was so unbelievably comfortable. Now I'm saving up for couches in this style |
- Posted by kellienoelle (My Page) on Sat, Feb 15, 14 at 11:18
The Smith Brothers couches are beautiful and very well made. I was considering this brand while I was couch shopping. Just a word of caution, in the couple that I was able to find locally to sit in, the seat depth felt pretty narrow to me. I'm not very tall at 5'5", but I tend to sit cross legged on the couch quite frequently. The sales person told me that they tended to run a bit narrower, which some people prefer, especially if you don't like to "sink in" to your sofa. If you can't find one to sit on to try out, I would find something with similar dimensions and try it out! For example, a tightback Smith Brothers has a seat depth of 21 inches, while the BY tightback is 23.5 inches |

Hi Jane, I have some unfinished remodel pictures but nothing that shows the particular seating area well. It's an open plan . I just can't find out much about the workmanship as the Elite furniture site is somewhat vague and does not give the buyer the benifit of doubt on knowledge research. I can not seem to find hand tied in my price range in the color I seek. There is nothing in my area to try out, nothing I like or can afford anyway. a. Side area... |

Didn't someone post a thread recently about those guns not having the same spacing on the grip bushings as standard 1911s? I'd look into that before ordering anything.
Thanks for all the input guys. Olympus I have previously searched for input on the Tisas, but didn't recover anything about grip interchangeability issues, and have noticed many people changing the grips. I'll have to double check on that. So are there no takers on the punisher grips? lol I kinda like the idea that black grips will match my blackhawk but then again I could also call it my punisher haha I will take a look at all the suggestions though before rendering a decision
Guns owned: Phoenix Arms HP22A, Ruger P95, Hi Point 4095ts, Winchester SXP field, Ruger Blackhawk 45LC, Bushmaster Carbon 15, NAA Mini 22lr, Tisas Zig M 1911
Between the two you have picked - my choice would be the black checkered ones for sure (just not into the whole "punisher" theme myself).... But as others have mentioned, check out VZ Grips, Esmeralda, Sarge (The Finer Grain) & Brown's Custom Grips I own grips form all of these makers - all are PREMIUM grips!!
Thanks Bart! I'm on several different forms and I'm always surprised to see that I usually get forgotten about. Surprising because I've been around longer than the usual suspects and probably sold more sets of grips than 90% of the other custom makers, including making grips directly for an ultra-high-end 1911 manufacturer. But I can always count on you to be sure an include me. Not only here, but elsewhere too. It doesn't go unnoticed and it's greatly appreciated!
Good deal, that's comforting lol mind if I see a little bit of your work?
Punisher is kind of flashy. I think a GI model needs classic wood. Just my opinion. The only 1911 in .45 auto I know that has different grips is some sig sauer models. You can see its rounded at the lower palm.

VISAKHAPATNAM: INS Shakti, the second of the two fleet tankers built by Fincantieri Shipyard of Italy for the Indian navy, was commissioned on Saturday. The vessel was commissioned by chief of Indian naval staff, Admiral Nirmal Verma. INS Shakti is the third tanker by the same name, with the earlier two having served the nation with pride. The induction of Shakti into naval service would enhance the reach of the navy well beyond the limits of the Indian Ocean and provides support to the expanding fleet of the Indian Navy.
The ship is one of the largest in the Indian Navy as it is 175 metres in length and 32 metres in width. The vessel displaces over 27,000 tonnes and is capable of carrying over 15,000 tonnes of liquid cargo including fuels for ships and aircraft of the navy as well as fresh water.
It also has large storage space to carry up to 500 tonnes of solid cargo like victuals and ammunition. It has state-of-the-art cargo handling facilities including a 30 tonne capacity deck crane that facilitate simultaneous fuelling of multiple ships and transfer of heavy solid cargo at sea. The ship also has a credible self defence capability and an indigenous Anti-Missile Defence Chaff system. INS Shakti also boasts of fully automatic engine controls, power management and battle damage control systems. The president of Fincantieri Shipyard Corrado Antonini, Italian ambassador to India Giacomo Sanfelice D Monteforte, vice-admirals Anup Singh, Sunil Lanba and others were present at the occasion.

By far the best contact lens solution I had ever used was Clear Care, but the only problem with that solution was that it needed way too much solution to use. If you are not familiar with it, it needs a lot of solution in it's unique container for it's hydrogen peroxide system to neutralize. Each bottle would only last me about three weeks to a month. While it was really comfortable and great it took too much of my budget for contact lens.
I saw that BL released this new solution so I decided to give it a try. First thing that I noticed was that it comes in a pretty cool looking clear bottle, which is different from everything else. I've been using this product for a week now and I can tell you; the.
I've been wearing contacts (torics) for the last 6 years, it hasn't always been great. Sometimes they get dry, irritated, etc, you should know all the downsides. The last few years I've been using Optifree Replenish, because it feels fine, doesnt make my eyes burn (some of the solutions do that to me), and well... i stick to what I know. Since switching to BioTrue, there's no going back. It never gets foggy, my night vision seems better, and through the day I never really feel that I'm wearing contacts.
There is no extra "feel" to this solution though. How your eyes feel when you have no contacts in is how they feel with this. I say this, because with the "Replenish" it felt kinda... cool and "replenishing" when the contacts go in.

The clubhouse at Les Bois Park serves a roster of classic American noshables to patrons wagering on speedy-steed sprints.

In 1924, some Dakotans got together to celebrate the founding of their communities by the miners, muleskinners, and madams who arrived chasing gold. They made a yearly festival of the gathering, dubbing it the Days of '76; the even continues to this day, featuring both a parade and a rodeo.
Of course, between festivals, the organizers needed a place to tell this story and to keep the horse-drawn carriages, vintage clothing, firearms, and memorabilia that the festival collected. Sometimes, people stopped in to see the collection, turning the storage rooms into informal museum galleries. Finally, in 2012, organizers moved the collection of Western and American Indian artifacts, archives, photos, and artwork to a brand-new 32,000 square-foot building?and the Days of '76 Museum was born.

I started a mango from seed and everything grew fine. It was about 6 inches when i left for vacation. I had someone water it while I was gone. When I came back, it grew another stem! How did this happen? I'm certain I only planted 1 seed!

Some mangoes as well as other species have polyembryonic seeds so you can easily get more than one plant per seed. These are frequently true-to-type (the same as the mother tree). If you can easily separate them and they have their own roots, then thats what's going on.Paul. |

($150; with 4% petit verdot) Good deep red-ruby. Ripe, sweet aromas of currant, mocha, truffle, leather and chocolate, plus a whiff of blueberry from the petit verdot. Then broad and sweet but with a firm acid spine for the vintage. Distinctly dark flavors of blueberry, black raspberry and licorice. Finishes with densely packed tannins and excellent persistence. This should evolve very slowly.

Kongsgaard's finest Cabernet Sauvignon to date is the 2007. Its dense purple color is accompanied by deep cassis, smoke, blackberry, licorice, and roasted meat-like characteristics. Dense and rich with sweet tannin, full-bodied power, and a youthful style, it should evolve for at least 20 years.

Hello y'all: I'm pretty new to the forum, and have been enjoying some of the threads. Especially those related to pricing.
My question: I can't seem to find pricing information on leeks. Anywhere. Any help would be most appreciated! Also, do most folks bunch them, or sell them by the pound? |

I don't grow them, but other vendors, at my market, get anywhere from 3/$1 to $2 each, depending upon size and the vendor's price range. One of the vendors is a much higher price range than the other. She consistently get 25% to 50% more than any of the rest of us can get. She's been around for over 17 years at this market. |

I get $1 ea for big fall leeks and will probably charge $2 ea for the winter leeks which are much fatter. |
