Im feeling a little sentimental right now. Larry Flynt (my mentorthe man that gave me my start in the adult industry) just wrote the blurb for the back-cover of my forthcoming bookIm flattered and honored. Of course, Im a little selfish I guess, I mean were in the process of mourning the loss of some of our greatest legends (most recently Marilyn Chambers). And so I got to thinking some, and it dawned on me that Larry was shot by some nutcase that despised the fact the he dared have a pictorial with a black man and a white woman. And then it hit me that those two subjects could have been our Presidents folks! (not sayin they werebut think about it). And so, lets for sure, be grateful for all those who have led the way in our own little freaky way towards a certain freedom we share Sunset Thomas

Process vs task vs threads
can anyone explain me the exact difference between process task and threads??
thanks in advance!!! |
In Linux, there is no such thing as a task, at least by any formal definition that I know of.
A process is the basic model used to separate running programs and their resources from all other such programs and the kernel. A process has memory resources allocated by the kernel, and these are private to the process, and protected from all other processes. A process is given time for execution of code in it's code memory space by the kernel. Within a process, there is at least one thread of execution. Using threads, there can be multiple threads of execution that all share the same code memory space that is private to the process. The threads execute independently, but execute a common code segment. Also shared between threads within a process is the data memory, meaning that process variables are common to all threads within the process. --- rod. |
gr8!!! thank you :):)
A process and a thread are treated in the same fashion in linux, except for some small variations. Hence some times the generic term task is used to refer to process as well as thread.
You can read chapter on process management in http://www.amazon.com/Linux-Kernel-D.../dp/0672329468 for more information. |
--- rod. |
@rod What I meant was they are treated in a similar fashion in linux . To Linux, a thread is just a special kind of process.
As far as I have read the data structures that handle a process as well as thread are the same in linux. In linux the same system call clone() creates a thread as well as a process, but the difference lies the flags passed to this system call. So the term task is some times used in place of the term process. |
All times are GMT -5. The time now is 04:15 PM. |

Clearfield Co. firefighters battle blaze for one of their own
By: Lauren Hensley
MADERA, Pa.--- Firefighters in Clearfield County dealt with frigid temperatures as they were called to the scene of an early morning blaze. When fire crews got the call of a garage fire in Madera, the Lynn Street address was a familiar one. According to officials a volunteer firefighter lives at the address with two others and his 1-year-old son and 2-month-old son. Luckily, when first responders arrived on scene everyone was safely out of the house.
"It started in the garage and was going into the house," Dwyane DeLattre, Madera volunteer fire company chief, said. "The guys had to knock it down; they put the fire out in the garage. There was a little extension into the house. Heavy smoke damage in the house and water damage, but pretty much the garage is destroyed about $100,000 in damages."
DeLattre said it was smoke detectors that alerted the family there was trouble inside of the garage. He said without this important piece of fire protection the outcome could have been very different.
"Yes, there was a working smoke detector," DeLattre continued. "I believe that is what woke him up and why he went over to the garage, he saw the glow in the garage. I thought the whole roof was on fire when we pulled on scene. If it was for that they would have probably still been there."
There is no word on what caused the blaze yet. But the fire marshal has been called in to investigate. 6 News has learned the Red Cross assisted the family with food, baby supplies and clothing, and will follow up to determine any additional disaster needs.
Viewers can help people affected by disasters like fires, floods, as well as countless crises at home, by making a donation to support American Red Cross Disaster Relief. To learn more, click here.

Normal is nothing more than a cycle on a washing machine. Whoopi Goldberg Fiction is a kind of compassion-generating machine that saves us from sloth. Is life kind or cruel? Yes, Literature answers. Are people good or bad? You bet, says Literature. But unlike other systems of knowing, Literature declines to eradicate one truth in favor of another. One can decide that the principal role of knowledge is as an indispensable element in the functioning of society, and act in accordance with that decision, only if one has already decided that society is a giant machine. |

The Saunders quote is just so right - everything in life is a matter of perspective, everyone has their own truth, there is no absolute, ever. |

Yesterday I was flying my Assassin when my RX cut out and I got to witness first-hand, the toughness of the Assassin.
I don't know (yet) if the RX went bad or whether I just went out of range (I was starting to come back towards my position, so I don't think so?). But anyway, lost power, lost controls and watched helplessly as my Assassin fell victim to gravity... Walked over, picked it up, dusted it off and was very impressed... The motor mount was bent and one of the servos had come loose and that was it... Even though I nosed in vertically the battery is fine, the nose is fine, absolutely amazing...

Finally I put a bomb drop on the WM
Hi Lee,
Thought I would share the bomb drop I put on the WM, my son said he had problems getting the rubber band thru the motor mount hole so he changed his to wrap around the back of the wing so I did something similar. Here is the video of my first few drops, finally realized I needed to cut the throttle before the drop! DUH!

It looks like your bomb drop works well.
We tried the eye hook from a simple gate latch and glued it in the foam and put a wire from the servo through the eye that would pull out when the servo arm moved. We put a rubber band around the wire to get the same effect with different hardware. I never tried that configuration with the hook on the top of the wing. Great Idea!!! The bomb drop set up with the rubber band is great because you can drop almost anything that has the right size and weight. I drop rolls of toilet paper in combat and we may have it cut 4+ times before it hits the ground. The trouble is you have to go clean up the mess. Crape paper also looks good coming off the roll. Leave one end of the paper loose to start dragging the end to pull the rest of the paper off the roll. Years ago I dropped a roll of toilet paper high in the wind trying to guess where it would hit near us and it came down and wound around me and my flight box from a very high drop. Tons of fun!!!! I take rolls of toilet paper and cut them in thrids on my bandsaw so I am dropping less paper and have more things to drop. I put three rubber bands on the roll of paper and then make two cuts between the rubber bands to get three small rolls to drop. Lee . |
Jun 14, 2011, 03:11 PM | |||
Your toilet paper story about it winding around you makes for a very hilarious image! Almost like Charlie Brown with his kits in the tree, and the string wound around him. I am looking forward to the parachute drops for the grandkids next. I need to make assignments so they will get to work on their custom parachutes soon. Thanks, jb |

~~~JimBaker~~~~~~~~I just returned from the Dollar Store with two 4-packs of TP and 3 2-packs of Crape Paper rolls. Lee, your suggestion to cut the TP rolls in to thirds just made my 25 cent a drops into 8.33 cents a drop per sortie! NICE! I am sure the fun police will show up soon!~~~~~~~~~~~
You can always rewind it to save money!! |

For those harder targets I am thinking the full roll would be in order! In fact, with the Titan I am thinking three full rolls under each wing, with a sequencing pickle release. With a spotter I think I could do a fair job with one pass to toilet paper those homes, repeated passes = more risks of being discovered! I might need a single center roll holder for a test drop to see how much wind-age to use. LOL jb |

My family recently spent 5 days at The Springs and you cannot improve upon this guest's experience at this five-star establishment. While it is a phenomenal architectural creation on its own, this special staff ensures that you will not be disappointed for a moment. Not only did they take care of all of our personal daily arrangements with tours and excursions, they spent time ensuring that each family member felt a special vacation experience. The rooms are a showcase, the views are unimaginable, the food and drinks are excellent and well prepared. In spite of the daily rain showers, we really enjoyed our time viewing the memorable Costa Rican landscapes, talking with the local residents and sharing family activities. By the way, the staff's English is better than that which I hear in the U.S. on a daily basis.

Duck Hunt is a video game for the Nintendo Famicom/Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) game console system in which players use the NES Zapper to shoot ducks (or Mallard drakes to be exact) on screen for points. The game was developed and published by Nintendo, and was released in 1984 in Japan. The ducks appear one or two at a time, and the player is given three shots to shoot them down.
Duck Hunt was one of the two original pack-in titles for the first release of the game system. The game was not initially reviewed often, but given mediocre critical praise and positive gamer reaction. Prior to the NES version, Nintendo also made a Duck Hunt game based on Laser Clay Shooting System released in 1976.
This is a great game and this post would be awesome with a .wav of the actual song.
I think I shot the dog for giggling at me more than I shot the ducks.
Agree on shooting that dumb dog
Go to http://www.zedge.net to find sounds/ringtones of Duck Hunt.
I think there is an online version of the game where you can shoot the dog.. Yes…here it is http://www.i-mockery.com/minimocks/duckhunt/
I work with someone who sounds like the dog when she laughs.

Organic Echinacea Elder Tea
- Supports the Immune System
- Herbal Dietary Supplement
Echinacea Elder Tea supports the immune system by stimulating immune cells, helping to reduce the duration of symptoms. It also promotes perspiration (a normal response to seasonal change conditions) which helps to release toxins through the skin. Our laboratory studies have shown that it significantly produces and activates immune cells.
How does it taste? It's a blend of sweet, fruity and slightly bitter herbal tastes with a characteristic tingle on your tongue caused by the alkylamides in echinacea, which is one of the important indicators of quality.
Organic Echinacea Elder Tea
Organic Echinacea purpurea herb 1,005 mg, organic elder flower 127.5 mg, Echinacea purpurea root dry native extract (6:1) 37.5 mg, elder fruit dry concentrate 37.5 mg. Proprietary blend: organic ginger rhizome, organic chamomile flower, organic yarrow flower, organic peppermint leaf.
Echinacea Elder Tea
Brewing Directions
For maximum benefit, medicinal tea must be properly prepared. Pour 8 oz. freshly boiled water over a tea bag in a cup. Cover cup and steep 10-15 minutes. These steps directly influence the amount of beneficial components that will end up in your teacup! Gently squeeze the tea bag to release any remaining extract.
Drink 3 or more cups daily when needed. Add honey to enhance benefits, especially in dry climates.

"Man! This recipe is tasty! I made this as a lower salt alternative to my husband's high salt take-out. He loved it and the toddler liked the 'tofu nuggets' without the sauce.

its a 57…
Not trying to be a dick, folks would come up to me all the time when I was in my 55 give me the thumbs up and say nice 56. it was always sort of a joke. Had to be a typo late at night, beers, more beers. Next time invite me!
love the carcast, one little thing though the slideshow on the homepage changes too quickly, there isn't enough time to read the paragraphs. just lettin you know.
I don't know why 55, 6 and 7 Chevy guys get violent when someone mistakes the car for another year, sounds like the makings of another rant
I don't know of many other types/years of car when that is true? I've been smacked around for getting the 67-69 Camaro wrong in the past, do you know of any others?
Awesome show Ganz.
Cmon up North sometime the Salmon is fantastic.
And that is a frickin beeauuuutiful car.
Nice 57 chevy if i was the owner i would break some fingers! For the reason of touching the battery and then touching the car all over or maybe Donny did the right thing and wiped everything down as to keep the car in nice shape. You don't find many stock cars in that nice of shape
Steve Pasadena
Hey Sandy, how much do you think this car is worth?
I wanted to see the top go down! My dad had a 61 T-Bird Convertible. What a trip as a kid to see all those mechanisms (trunk lid raise, boot swing out, top fold down in, lid close with those locks spinning into place). Wonderful era for complicated steel.
Given the obsessive numbers-matching perfection of this awesome car, how much do you think it would fetch at auction?
you did a great job on your 57!!! it is and always will be the coolest car ever!! STEVE.

Helvetic Republic
Helvetic Republic
Republic founded in March 1798, constituting the greater part of Switzerland, after it had been conquered by France in the French Revolutionary Wars. The government was patterned after that of the Directory in France. Delegates called on Napoleon to mediate in factional disputes, and in 1803 he substituted a new Swiss Confederation for the republic, forcing it into close association with France.

Much is still being made of a triple play that occurred on Sunday, but unfortunately, the reason for the notoriety isn't so much about the rarity of the play itself and a whole lot more to do with the strange way in which it occurred.
Picture it. Los Angeles, California. Sunday afternoon. A baseball game between the hometown Dodgers and the State rival San Diego Padres was tied at four, entering the ninth inning. Padres first baseman Yonder Alonso led off with a single to left off of Dodgers reliever Javy Guerra. Third baseman Chase Headley then drew a walk after falling down 0-2 to the right handed pitcher.
Then, Jesus Guzman stepped to the plate with two on and none out, and this happened:
As you can see, with Guzman squaring to bunt, Guerra's pitch comes in high and tight. The batter reacts by trying to get away from the pitch, but it inadvertently hits his bat or his chest. The ball ricochets behind home plate, but then bounces forward.
Meanwhile, home plate umpire Dale Scott raises his hands and backs away as if to signify it's a foul ball, but as A.J. Ellis, the Dodgers catcher, leaps up and throws the ball to third base, sending it around the horn for a 2-5-6-3 triple play, Scott appears to signal that the ball is actually fair.
And the top half of the ninth inning is over. The win probability added decreases by more than 32%, going from two on and none out to no longer being the Padres turn to bat in a single pitch. As you might imagine, San Diego manager Bud Black wasn't very pleased with the call. The reputably mild mannered skipper was ejected, and then, as if to add insult to injury, the Dodgers won the game in a walk off in the bottom part of the inning.
Peter Woodfork, Senior Vice President of Baseball Operations for MLB and the overseer of umpiring, released a statement about the play:
After review and discussion with the umpire, we have determined that the call itself of a fair ball was correct. However, while making the call, there was an incorrect mechanic, which appeared to confuse San Diego's base runners. At no time did the umpire verbally kill the play on the field. After reviewing the entire situation following the game, the umpire realizes his hands were in an exaggerated upward appearance similar to a call that would indicate a dead ball. While we all agree that it was a fair ball that did not hit the batter, the umpire recognizes that the proper mechanic was not executed as he tried to avoid the catcher.
Harsh toke.
It's easy to criticize the umpire in this instance, but slow your roll, pilgrim. The ball went foul and then bounced back into fair territory. According to reports, he made the motion with his hands, but didn't "verbally kill the play on the field." I'm not sure what we expect an umpire to do in such circumstances.
The "improper mechanic" is part of an umpire's job to be efficiently accurate. The ball appeared foul, he began to call it so, but it took a strange bounce forward into fair territory, and then adjusted his call with verbal confirmation this time. I think it's pretty hard to have a beef with the umpire, unless you want to question whether the ball hit Guzman's bat or chest.

Listen to Dirty Projectors' Shambly Spirit Quest 'There's a Fire'
'Swing Lo Magellan' B-side comes via limited 7-inch
As SPIN scribe Dan Weiss explained in his review of Dirty Projectors' Swing Lo Magellan, a huge part of what makes that excellent LP one of our 50 Best Albums of 2012 is "mastermind Dave Longstreth's desire to make a mess and tidy it up at the same time." That same winning dynamic applies to the just-released B-side, spotted by Stereogum, dubbed "There's a Fire."
The song seems shambly at first: a mixed bag of percussion and African-inspired guitar plucking. But as Longstreth's gently note-bending voice arrives, all comes into focus. The music itself plays light and loose as a lovely contrast to lyrics about the human search for greater meaning: "If you've been looking for reasons / Deep in the creases of folded-up clues," the lead Projector sings, "I'm telling you right now, there's a fire."
The track initially appeared as the B-side to an "Offspring Are Blank" white label 7-inch pressed for the group's January Carnegie Hall gig. Only 250 were made, but a few remain over at the Domino Records web store.

Comic #211: Mandrake - The Giant Man
An excellent mandrake comic. Wanted to post this yesterday but time nahi mila. Enjoy.
Btw..Pratibha Patil..as President
- Is it more important that India gets its first woman President (not that it makes a difference)? Or is it more important that she is seen as Sonia Gandhi loyalist?
- Are we insulting the intelligence and integrity of an Indian when we think that she will hold her loyalty to Sonia Gandhi more important than loyalty to the country?
- Or is it more important that we find someone who is a politician and understands the constitution (in which case Dr.Kalam was not qualified for the job)? For instance, Mr.Shekhawat who appeared non-partisan during his stint in RS?
- Are we picking him because that is how the flow goes (VP becomes Pres), that he is a politician of "integrity" or because we don't want "Sonia Gandhi's candidate" who also seems qualified enough to do the job - at least better qualified than Dr.Kalam?
- Now Dr.Kalam apparently joins in - he wants to go for a second term if there is certainty (?) and bowing to the overwhelming love of people (??). Obviously, this is what the THIRD front - the nuisance front - is saying. Let's hope the president either denies this or issues a statement expressing his willingness to play. But I doubt if we will see either and he will just wait to see what happens (while waiting I hope he gets a haircut).
Moral of the story: Power, even if token, is hard to give up. PAGE 1 PAGE 2 PAGE 3 PAGE 4 PAGE 5 PAGE 6 PAGE 7 PAGE 8 PAGE 9 PAGE 10 PAGE 11 PAGE 12 PAGE 13 PAGE 14 PAGE 15 PAGE 16 PAGE 17 PAGE 18 PAGE 19 PAGE 20 PAGE 21 PAGE 22 PAGE 23 PAGE 24 PAGE 25 PAGE 26 PAGE 27 PAGE 28

League bowling is alive and well at Wade Hampton Lanes. There are morning and late-night leagues, church and practice leagues, leagues for men and seniors and youths, and even a league for homeschoolers and their families. This roster is a testament to the broad range of people who enjoy bowling at the center, where 32 synthetic lanes also attract casual bowlers, especially during events such as the creepy cosmic bowling that takes place on Halloween weekend. When these bowlers aren't picking up splits or pouring concrete in the gutters, they're playing video games in the arcade, browsing the pro shop, or noshing on wings and sipping draft Yuengling brews in the bar and grill.
A finalist in the 2003 season of Nashville Star, Grammy-winner Miranda Lambert's lively, heartfelt country rock sets toes a-tapping and eardrums abuzz with catchy Southern tunes. Strumming such well-known country songs as "The House That Built Me," and "Heart Like Mine," Lambert's virtuosic singing and guitar playing lends life to touching ballads and high-energy tunes alike, touching even the most curmudgeonly hearts and compelling weeping willows to wave their tendrils with unabashed excitement. Aural oceans wash over listeners in the Frank Gehry–designed Merriweather Post Pavilion, nestled among 40 acres of forest between Washington and Baltimore. Today's deal lets concertgoers relax with a Bud Light on the lawn, where they can watch the show beneath the open sky or whisper movie endings to clusters of furiously immobile grass stalks.

Law Offices Of Howard G. Smith Announces Investigation On Behalf Of Shareholders Of DynaVox Inc.
Law Offices of Howard G. Smith announces that it is investigating potential claims on behalf of purchasers of the securities of DynaVox Inc. ("DynaVox" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:DVOX) concerning possible violations of federal securities laws. DynaVox designs, manufactures and distributes electronic and symbol-based augmentative communication equipment, software and services. The Company offers speech generating technology and special education software solutions for individuals with speech, language, physical or learning disabilities.
The investigation concerns allegations that certain statements made by the Company concerning its business and financial prospects were materially false and/or misleading. On September 30, 2010, the Company issued a press release stating that during its first quarter of fiscal 2011, DynaVox "experienced a softening of demand for both its speech generating devices and software products." As a result, the Company announced, it is withdrawing its previously issued earnings guidance for fiscal year 2011. A subsequent article published by TheStreet.com noted "the weakness in DynaVox is striking given the company just went public in late April, selling upwards of 9 million shares at $15 each. The stock is now down 65% off a high of $19.20 on June 16."
If you are a shareholder of DynaVox, if you have information or would like to learn more about these claims, or if you wish to discuss these matters or have any questions concerning this announcement or your rights or interests with respect to these matters, please contact Howard G. Smith, Esquire, of Law Offices of Howard G. Smith, 3070 Bristol Pike, Suite 112, Bensalem, Pennsylvania 19020 by telephone at (215) 638-4847, Toll Free at (888) 638-4847, or by email to

Can anyone tell me how deep to plant jack-in-the-pulpit corms? I just purchased these and they are very small, about the size of a pea. Should they just go about 1 inch in the soil? |
Follow-Up Postings:
I just make a small indentation with my Japanese gardening knife and drop them in. The depth is probably only a half inch or so, and I just push the spot closed. Nothing fancy, and it works. I hope you have some luck as most of the corms sold commercially are too dried out. You might soak them overnight in water first. |

A comedy adventure that takes us back to a previously undiscovered era in the history of our planet known as the Croodaceous, when nature was still a work-in-progress... full of never-before-seen creatures and landscapes.
An old-school caveman must lead his family across a volatile prehistoric landscape in search of a new home. The outsized flora and fauna are challenge enough, but the real complication arises when the family is joined by an alarmingly modern caveman whose search for "tomorrow" is at odds with our hero's reliance on the traditions of yesterday. The imaginative and resourceful newcomer helps the Croods navigate their way through the fantastic world beyond their cave.

After the cookies crumbled in Higley, the high school principal faced investigation and two board members bumped into a recall.
As part of her role as a member of the Higley High Football Booster Club, Peggy Zornes coordinated the delivery of cookies to football players on game days and arranged for halftime snacks for referees.
"Nothing unusual," she said.
That was until fellow boosters came forward and said Higley High principal Burnie Hibbard was obstructing cookie deliveries and intimidating them. So when Zornes was elected to the Higley Unified School District governing board in 2002, she decided to get to the bottom of the allegations. She asked then-assistant superintendent David LaRose to investigate.
Cookiegate — the name given Zornes' request — is one of the primary reasons parents in the district have successfully put a recall of Zornes and fellow board member Todd Nuttall on the Sept. 14 ballot.
In a pamphlet titled "Recall Nuttall & Zornes" supplied by the nonprofit "Take Back Higley Schools," recall supporters wrote, "Nuttall and Zornes wasted more than $9,500.00 in tax payer money on silly and frivolous investigations like Cookiegate."
Board member Ed Moore said he assumes Cookiegate was an expensive undertaking.
"It is my understanding $9,500 was spent on investigations including one into why Mrs. Zornes' football players didn't get their cookies."
Nuttall and Zornes say Moore and the recall parents have it all wrong.
"This is one thing that needs to be wiped off the face of the earth," Nuttall said about the belief by recall parents he and Zornes lightly spent taxpayer money.
Zornes said Cookiegate was nothing more than a phone call or two placed to Hibbard by LaRose. The $9,500 figure was for money spent on official school board investigations directed by then-Superintendent Larry Likes and are protected by executive session rules, she said.
Hibbard, the man at the heart of the Cookiegate investigation, said he never could figure out what the "big deal was about some cookies, especially when the players got them later in the evening."
He confirmed the notion that Cookiegate costing taxpayers thousands of dollars is more a matter of urban legend than truth. Still, he said, the recall movement is right on target and noted close to $10,000 has been spent investigating him.
"I've been inspected and detected and if there was anyway (Zornes and Nuttall) could have gotten rid of me, they would have," he said, adding both board members have abused powers in their attempts to check into fabrications about him.
"It's been like a witch hunt," he said, "and you know the thing about witch hunts is there is no such thing as witches until you go on a hunt and then you find one."
The only investigation Hibbard would talk about was a charge of grade changing, for which he was cleared.
Nuttall stands by the investigations. The only problem he said he has with the principal is Higley High doesn't perform at the level he feels it needs to.
"That school should be our flagship school," he said. "It's improved, but when I look at schools like those in Gilbert — we don't have nearly the programs they do. And, that's Hibbard's job."

I know the issue of hardwood floors in master bathrooms is all over this forum, but I have a very simple question, ONLY FOR THOSE PEOPLE WHO ACTUALLY HAVE HARDWOOD FLOORS in your master bathroom: Would you do it again? (And If you don't like them, did you choose to install them or were they there when you bought the house?) Thanks! |
Follow-Up Postings:
Yes! I love mine. Completely easy care, looks terrific. (I think!) |
I installed the flooring myself. We still like the floors. Been in over 15 years. Look great. No issues. No damage. No worries. If I ever built another house, I'd probably use wood again. |
Have you looked at the wood look alike porcelain tiles? I saw some at the tile store and they looked fantastic, came in so many shades. |

Brazilian walnut (ipe) has natural tendencies to resist moisture, might be a good choice. expensive though. |

Splashing can be wiped up, but what about around the toilet? We have hardwood in our powder room. Yesterday I noticed a puddle-shaped stain behind the toilet. I'm not aware of any condensation on the tank. Did one of the many workmen who have been in our house overshoot and not wipe it up? I don't even want to think about it! We just had the toilet reinstalled in our remodeled guest bath. We noticed a slow leak a few days later. Fortunately, it's tile. If you have a separate toilet closet, I'd recommend tiling it. |
- Posted by xxxxOldTimeCarpenter (My Page) on Mon, May 27, 13 at 13:08
may-flowers Well-finished hardwood actually is less likely to retain any unpleasant liquids, or their residue, than tile with a cement grout. Grout sucks up moisture unless it is newly sealed. What usually happens is that it get behind the baseboard, where it is hard to get at. True for tile, vinyl, wood, etc. Leaving puddles around the urinal is never a good idea, and will cause problems no matter which flooring you choose. Find the puddle maker and tell him/her to knock it off. Look menacing. If it continues, withdraw the contractor's bathroom priviliges -- he can go get a porta-potty. |
- Posted by may_flowers (My Page) on Mon, May 27, 13 at 16:03
Our guest bath has epoxy grout, so I think were safe there, plus no males will be using that bath. We're done with remodeling for this year, so the puddle maker won't be back! Our oak hardwood floor in the main hallway and powder room has a "Swedish finish", which I believe is a catalyzed varnish. There's no signs of wear and tear after 14 years, except for behind the pedestal sink, where some of the varnish is missing. |
