Local singer visits Milam
Teen pop star extols taking chances in life
Bringing pop singer Greyson Chance to Ben Milam Elementary for a visit Tuesday was a dream come true for many.
The school had extended an invitation to the now-famous Wichita Falls native as part of its celebration theme, "Milam's Got Talent."
Greyson's older brother Tanner and sisterAlexa once attended Milam.
The Chance family scheduled a surprise visit Tuesday where the 15-year-old singer/songwriter, who has been called the next Justin Bieber, talked to students about his own dream come true.
Chance rocketed to fame in 2010 through a YouTube video gone viral. Three years later he has honed his pop-rock music style, performed on television shows, attended Hollywood red-carpet events, and sung his way through Europe, Canada and Southeast Asia.
On New Year's Eve he appeared on ABC's Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve with Ryan Seacrest 2013.
He's also recorded two CDs and is anticipating the release of his newest single, "Sunshine and City Lights."
He shocked Ben Milam students by walking into the cafeteria and taking the stage Tuesday.
The 600 children sitting cross-legged on the cafeteria floor had been told he would visit them through a video feed. Watching him saunter up to the stage in person, they screamed in surprise and delight.
"Hello everybody," Greyson said, walking across the stage, mic in hand, for his first-ever school visit.
"In 1997, I was born in Wichita Falls. I moved away when I was 3, but my brother and sister — who are both older — went to this school."
Greyson, wearing black jeans, T-shirt and hoodie and herringbone-patterned tennis shoes, briefly explained how his father had made a shaky video of him performing Lady Gaga's hit song "Paparazzi" at a sixth-grade talent show in Edmond, Okla., that helped propel his career.
He didn't mention that the video went on to attract nearly 50 million views and that he has since made frequent visits to Ellen DeGeneres' television show.
Instead, he challenged the students to set their own goals.
"Do any of you have a dream?" he asked. He listened as students shouted out dreams of playing pro soccer or having a hit record.
"Work hard, be kind, and go out with this thing in your head that says, 'I'm not going to let anybody push you aside,' " he said.
Walk into any room with a swagger, he said, to show people that you believe in yourself and your dream.
"Make sure everyone knows about your dream. Is anybody shy?" he asked as hands flew up all over the cafeteria. "Here's what I want you to do. Shout it from the mountain tops. Say, 'I don't know you. But here's my dream!' Keep that mindset. I want you guys to promise me that you'll keep goals throughout your life."
Students peppered him with questions, asking what his life was like at 9 years old ("I wore a sweatshirt every day to school"), what his favorite color was ("I'm going to go goth on you guys. I love black."), and if he liked reading ("I did not like reading until I found books I liked. Then I read three days straight."
He said he remembered singing so much when he was younger that he felt like a constant nuisance to his family. "I was always singing in the car and at home. They'd say, 'Do you ever stop singing?' "
When asked for career advice, Greyson shared his biggest rule: "Don't let people get to you with their harsh remarks. You've just got to wipe it all out."
He told the story of the day he read iconic music magazine Rolling Stone's critique of his first album, "Hold On 'til the Night," released in August 2011.
"They gave my album two stars," he said, reflecting on the mediocre grade. "I threw it in the trash and went on stage and performed for 10,000 people. Don't let people judge you. Push them aside."
Greyson, who has always played the piano, recently learned to play the ukulele and drums. But singing and songwriting — for himself and others — is still his passion. He's written and recorded as many as 350 songs.
His iPhone Voice Memo app is his "life and soul," he said, since he uses it to capture phrases and tunes that randomly pop into his head.
The last three years have familiarized Greyson with so much of the music industry than he feels confident in whatever opportunities arise for him. Performing is a de-stressor, he said.
"I can go on stage and leave everything else behind."
For aspiring singers, the road to fame has gotten harder despite technology, he said. "There's so much competition. And piracy. The labels are not signing as many artists."
His own career has had its bumps, he said.
"Most of it is behind the scenes. It's the industry. It's very political," he said.
That has forced him to live the message of persistence that he preached to children Tuesday.
"Declare it, find out how you can do it, and keep (the dream) alive," he told the students. "Go walk in (Milam Principal) Mr. Thomas' office and tell him your dream!"

"Wonderfully easy recipe. Came out perfect on my first try and I'd never cooked duck before. One of those recipes that when you see it on TV you think it can't be that easy but when you try it yourself, you're surprised to find out that it is. Skin came out crispy and duck was moist, and flavorful. Got complements from my whole family. Thanks ""

SPRINGFIELD, Ore. — An iconic day for the City of Springfield as it unveiled the anticipated Simpsons mural downtown.
For over two decades, one family has been embraced all over the world and today, that family came to life in Springfield.
"It's wonderful. It's wonderful," said Jess Stafford.
Stafford couldn't wait to introduce her family to this iconic bunch.
"I have grown up on the Simpsons my entire life. My favorite, not just cartoon but TV sitcom, and what better way to introduce my kids that are younger to such a fantastic American icon," said Stafford.
Stafford and her family joined the hundreds who gathered at 5th and Main in downtown Springfield for the highly anticipated unveiling of the Simpsons mural on the west side of the Emerald Art Center.
"It's gorgeous. It's beautiful. I love that it captures parts of our real Springfield incorporated with parts of Simpsons' Springfield, so I like it," said Stafford.
"The mural is absolutely gorgeous. I've driven by it twice a day for the past three days," said Leda Hermecz, a Springfield resident.
They also received some help dedicating the mural from a familiar face, or rather, familiar voice.
Yeardley Smith, the voice of Lisa Simpson, also brought comfort to many Oregonians hoping to bring the Simpsons home.
"You guys probably have a bit of a leg up because Matt Groening is from Springfield, and of course, you have the genius idea to put this mural on a wall where everyone can see it, so you win," said Smith.
"Is this the real springfield? What kind of question is that? What other Springfield is there?" said Hermecz.
"I think Homer and his family fits right in here," said Donald Gwyther from Creswell.
"Everybody is just excited to see Springfield really in Springfield," said Stafford.

I, too, was in the Chrysler Design Dome in December 2008 when the beleaguered automaker unveiled the Dodge Charger and Chrysler 300 to a skeptical media corps. I returned to the Automobile Magazine editorial offices that day and declared to my colleagues that the two big American sedans I had seen were "world-class designs that could only have been created in Detroit." I said that it would be a crying shame if they weren't built, and a cruel irony, because as I said then and continue to believe now, there isn't another automaker in the world that can design a mass-market sedan as well as Chrysler can. Note my qualifier: "mass-market." Sure, Audi and Maserati and others makes beautiful sedans, but they're premium products, not accessible to everyday folks. The Dodge Charger, to my eyes, looks exactly right. It's got American swagger, sure, but it's also got finesse, style, and elegance. I remembered all this when I parked the Charger in front of my house, stepped back, and had a good look at it. Nice.
As Phil describes, it's an evocative American driving experience to be behind the wheel of a handsome, rear-wheel-drive American sedan with a big V-8 under the hood, and indeed I enjoyed the big 5.7-liter Hemi in this R/T. The truth is, most Charger buyers will get Chrysler's new Pentastar V-6, currently paired with the five-speed automatic but available this fall with a new, eight-speed transmission from ZF, the big German transmission specialist. I don't think the eight-speed will be offered with the Hemi V-8, only with the V-6. That combination, one would hope, should allow the Charger to achieve more than 25 mpg on the highway. We shall see.
Like Phil, I also really like Dodge's new center stack design, which does a brilliant job of marrying new technology with the old technology that we all still like and want, like rotating knobs to tune the radio. The touch-screen interface here is intuitive and delightful rather than frustrating and annoying.

Feb. 21 (Bloomberg) -- Volvo Car Corp. will form a carmaking venture with majority shareholder Zhejiang Geely Holding Group Co., as part of plans to expand in the world's largest vehicle market.
Volvo will announce "concrete details" about the joint venture in about two months, Michael Ning, a Beijing-based spokesman for the company, said in a phone interview today.
Under current rules, the Gothenburg, Sweden-based automaker is considered a foreign carmaker despite being wholly owned by Chinese interests and needs a local partner before manufacturing in China, Ning said. The company is awaiting approval from the National Development and Reform Commission for a proposed plant in the southwestern city of Chengdu, he said.
Foreign automakers seek to expand in China, where rising affluence and lower vehicle-ownership levels helped the world's second-largest economy overtake the U.S. as the biggest vehicle market in 2009. Volvo plans to invest as much as $11 billion worldwide over the next five years to tap rising demand in markets including China, Chief Executive Officer Jacoby said in February 2011.
A Chinese consortium including automaker Zhejiang Geely bought Volvo from Ford Motor Co. for $1.8 billion in August 2010, completing the biggest overseas acquisition by a Chinese carmaker. Zhejiang Geely owns 51 percent of Volvo, while the Chinese provinces of Daqing and Jiading have 37 percent and 12 percent respectively.
The maker of the S40 sedan and XC90 sport-utility vehicle is considering an additional manufacturing plant and engine factory in China to its proposed factory in Chengdu, Freeman Shen, head of Volvo's Chinese operations, said in an interview in June. The carmaker aims to double sales to 800,000 cars in the 10 years through 2020.
As part of the requirements for a Chinese carmaking joint venture, Volvo will also introduce a new China-only brand and more fuel-efficient vehicles, Ning said today.

Climate Change
Impacts of Climate Change
Wildlife and habitats across the country are already feeling the effects of climate change.
These effects include:
- Higher water and air temperatures that are lethal to temperature-sensitive species like salmon, coral and pikas
- Melting snow, glaciers and sea ice that provide habitat for polar bears, wolverines and other snow and ice-dependent species, as well as species that depend on the water runoff that "normal" snow and glaciers provide
- More storms, floods and droughts that damage habitat
- Rising sea levels that flood coastal areas where vulnerable species like sea turtles and shorebirds live
- Changes in plant and animal interactions that can lead to mismatches with negative consequences, like flowers blooming before pollinating insects emerge
Learn about the ways that changes in our climate are affecting wildlife in different regions today, and what we can expect to see in the future.

Unlock My Password Review Released Today By EveryReview.net
Unlock My Password is an easy to use product that will allow users to unlock their computer within 30 seconds, even if without a clue as to what the password was.
(PRWEB) August 28, 2012
For those interested in protecting the safety of documents and personal identity, it is always a good idea to have password protection turned on with forced login each time the computer is booted up. However, a lot of people are actually scared to use this kind of protection because of the fear of losing their password. Unlock My Password will eliminate that danger, and users will always know that there is a way to get back in, no matter what happens.
"Unlock My Password is a simple to use program that you download from their web site and then burn the program to a CD, a DVD, or a USB stick" says Angi Taylor of EveryReview.net, adding "This is so you can boot your computer from the external drive when you aren´t logged in. Once you put in the CD, DVD, or USB stick with the program on it, it will go through your hard drive, find your password, and then reset it for you".
Continues Angi, "What is interesting about this is that the whole process of resetting your password may only take you around 30 seconds (depending on the size of your drive), and you will be ready to log in like normal. This can save you a ton of money, time, stress, and will stop you from calling the IT folks every time you forget your password".

!This Is Me (Jan 03, 2008)
There are so many statments about weight these days, such as:
unhealthy eating.
not enough excersise.
these are just a few of many weight problems, if people don't stop eating smoking and not excersing enough the world will not be able to cope with futre development, kids also these days are weighing around 10stone at the age of 13! my mother is 12 stone and shes bin through life and isn't annerix she just watched her weight!
My argument starts,
Should we take more action toward over weight people?
The goverment should set up a training programme for people over a certain weight limit, because no one likes to be fat lets face it? If we take action now are future family and relatives will be ready to cope with life, this is a very immportant issue around the world.
My view:
My view is that people should watch their weight and the goverment should set up that programme i was talking about and that we should all do our best to help...
Your views:
As i find this quite a seriouse topic i want people to explain and tell em if they dissagree or agree with my idea...if so why? and if not why? this is the way it's going and we all know it.
!This Is Me (Jan 03, 2008)
We should,but it doesn't matter to some people. Some people are huge and need surgery,but don't get it.
well i find that pretty disgracful don't you think? being overweight and not giving a care and over weight people actually find it harder to have babies so our race is lowering because of fat people... how pathetic is that, i find it really selfish, please people overweight do something!
I don't' necessarily disagree with your idea, but making some one go on a program if they are over a certain weight is embrassing..these people have feelings as well, they are people like you and me
Plus remember that they made a life stlye choice to get that big in the first place (except for of course genetics, born that way etc etc).
and if we start up a program like this - who's paying for it? taxes? would people like the idea that the money that they are paying are going towards obese people who have no control over their lifestyle choices?
also.. is there any need for a programs like this, when there is already so much information out there? I don't know about where you are, but some governments are already doing a more cost effective way of combating obesity - education. TV here is bombarded with "get fit" campaigns, healthy eating on most programs is very popular and junk food is banned in most schools and in most primary schools they learn alot about eating healthy at home.
Plus, it is easy to get help provided that a person wants help. I personally think for long term success, a person should make the choice to change, not be told to. freedom of choice?
!Mini Dev (Jan 01, 2008)
Ok I have a strong view on this topic so I think that I'll express it.
First a person should be happy and I can guarantee if you sit at home eating yourself fat you're not happy. A person should take great pride in how they allow the outside world to see them. However, I also understand that there are reasons that surpass the norm in these topics and under no circumstance should those people make themselves unhealthy and unhappy to meet the modelesque figures that the media has force fed the general public.
... and join my rebellion against time.
When you talk about programme i mean it in a diffrent sense, like to help people cope with the weight not to emmbarrase them, it isn't like going on t.v or going public to anyone, plus it would also include more jobs for people as weight programmers, and why would people care about taxes? Their being wasted on pointless other things aswell so one more isn't going to hurt is it. Actually thinking about it, this isn't actually a waste of money. This is helping people get over their weight and making people become healthy. Fatness is like a spreading diesease that can be cured, we just choose not to.
I know that this is going to sound very rude......but when I came to the US I was disgusted by the amount of overweight people in this country compared to mine.........
And the food....in my opinion is to blame........
All the junk food in this country........we did not have it back in my home country....we had fresh produce and mean.....I had no idea what chips were until I came here.......
And when I see the people stuffing their faces with all this nasty food when children and people are starving in other countries....and even in this country.....
I just feel really sorry for those people that let their weight get out of control.....and that they are not strong enough to fight their obesity and overweight.....
!Mini Dev (Jan 01, 2008)
I so agree, ilive in england and the U.S is a pretty big eating fan country, they are nice people but the legs on them sheesh! this is why we should stop whilst were here! if we go to far this is gonna colapse somemany large people, and amazingly the fruits in the us are cheaper than in england yet england buy more fruit then us do so why the hell do the us not buy much fruit!? I know the majority of you are from america and you probably live healthy but i'm not talking about you i'm talking about the people that struggle to get their clothes on every morning, im talking about the people that refuse to look in the mirror when they get up. This shouldn't happen and it is true that most americans are grossley over weight!

You are not alone. Around this time, over the past few years, I'm swamped with frantic 'Kaz, help me please' e-mails from many women around the World. All wanting to lose a dress size by quickly, for some special occasion.
It's funny so many 'I'm getting fat' cries from the heart kick in around this time. I guess it's got something to do with the fact that life is so busy for us girls, it's too easy to fall into that fat trap, when you least want it.
Initially, I put this programme together for my family and friends. It achieved such great results that I was swamped by my friends, friends and even their friends of friends, asking me if they too can join the sisterhood and if I could make the system public.
The flood of requests from desperate women asking for my 'Emergency Weight loss System' and my kids saying "Wow, Mum you look awesome" really encouraged me to create 'Lose a Dress Size in 4 weeks.'
So now I help women, women just like you, all over Australia.
Girl... all you need is a bit of love and someone to make it easy. Someone who will show you the way to lose a dress size with minimum effort.
My System is a 4 week package delivered weekly on-line. I am including a dedicated mentor – available all day everyday, just to help you get that weight off. The package includes Menus, Shopping lists and mouth watering Recipes. Plus bonus motivational videos and helpful information.
At this point, if you still think you need more motivation to lose a little weight, just look in a full length mirror! – Cheeky I know… but true right?
So no more excuses, Girl. Only Santa's allowed to be fat at Christmas. The real secret to looking beautiful and desirable is to keep a terrific looking body, even as you grow older, then even your friends will take notice.
No shakes, no meal replacements, just real food that get real results.
Join the hundreds of other women who have lost a dress size in 4 weeks!
Call me now for a chat, together we will make it happen.
Sadly we cant take everyone. Please... only apply if you are serious about losing a dress size otherwise you will be taking the place of a lady who really wants to lose weight.
Kaz - xx

So Quick and Simple!
By Tanya on 25/06/2014 9:57:03 AMWahoo - yes I did drop a dress size just in time for my 40! I felt a million dollars, thanks so much Kaz. This program is just so quick and simple, the meals are quick to prepare but are so delicious (even my fussy hubstar liked them!!)

Finally a program that's worked for me!
By Christina on 20/05/2014 11:27:43 AMI've loved this program as everything's provided and the menu plan is quick and easy to prepare. My family sometimes eat the same meal as me but with extra carbs. It's the first time I've been able to lose weight and stick to a program. I've now moved onto the 12 week program to shift a few more kilos. Would highly recommend it to anyone wanting to change bad eating habits (...) Read more
By Kirsty on 31/03/2014 1:56:03 PMI just wanted to say a big thank you to Kaz. You have helped me get back on track with my food and motivation. I lost 6 kilos in 4 weeks and I have now started the 12 weeks program to get rid of the rest of this baby fat! I feel in control again! Thanks, Kirsty
OMG it works!
By Sarah on 13/01/2014 11:59:10 PMI actually did lose a dress size in 4 weeks. This weight loss program is so easy, everything is done for you, the meal plans, the shopping lists, the recipes. All you have to do is the cooking. The meals are delicious and family friendly and my mentor Lisa was amaze-balls! Thanks so much Lisa, I can now fit back into my pre-pregnancy clothes :-)

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Blitzen!
Facts about Blitzen
- Breed: American Bulldog Mix
- Color: White - With Brown Or Chocolate
- Age: Young
- Size: Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
- Sex: Male
Blitzen's Info...
I am already neutered, housetrained, in need of an experienced adopter, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
This big boy was in a kill shelter; he loves people; he gets along with most dogs; he even likes cats; he wants to play and share your bed at night;
Other Pets at Mercy's Door Pet Rescue, Inc.
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Blitzen, a Greenwich American Bulldog dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a American Bulldog for sale in Greenwich, or seeking a American Bulldog dog from a breeder in Greenwich.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Greenwich already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Greenwich breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even American Bulldog breeders who help with American Bulldog rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Greenwich paves the way for another one to be saved.

Getting nice results with Scangauge II
I got my Scangauge II in yesterday, and let me say if you don't have one.. I highly recommend it. I have already improved 1mpg (city driving) in less than 2 hours of having it installed. I didn't think the thing would pay for itself like the company says but I believe now. It costs double than the Ultragauge but I didn't like the negatives on this forum about it draining battery, so I didn't take the chance.
Anyway, what I've learned is when you have a steady foot on a relatively smooth city highway without a lot of stopping, the car @ 40mph gets 48mpg average. I am going to test the highway portion today to see what the best speed above 50mph should be. In the city: Acceleration from a stop in first gear (auto) nets around 7mpg average. Acceleration in 2nd gear usually averages 13-15mpg. Acceleartion in 3rd will put it up to 25mpg. And fourth gear will get you 30+ and long range without stops will easily get you 45+ mpg. The thing really teaches you how to get the best mpg out of your car (since you are eyeballing it most of the time). I am hoping to up my city average to 35+ from 29. Its super easy to program the x-gauge feature and I had no problems cycling through to get to where I want. I have not tried the tank trip feature because I am far away from another fillup. The only downside is with the Focus OBDII cover, it doesn't snap on to the rest of the dash, its kind of attached to the dash and doesn't come off. I can live with it just hanging down as its not really in the way of much. If anyone has a better idea then I'm all for it. Routing the Scangauge is easy if you put it right below your gas/temp gauge, you can simply stuff the remaining wire below the steering wheel. Anyway, I'll post more feedback on the highway mileage later on. |

I'm planning to use Daltile white subways in my shower, but figure there's a lot of experience over here. I can't figure out which white is which. At the Daltile website, on the Rittenhouse Square page, there are three whites: 0190 Arctic White (2) I have no idea what (2) refers to. I realize that monitor colors aren't great for true color, but the 0190 and 0100 look identical and are slightly creamy. K101 appears to be stark white. I picked up some Daltile samples at HD: 4 subways and several of two types of 1/4 round trim. All similar types came out of the same bins. I think the color is 0100. One subway is brighter/whiter than the others, but only by a degree or two. It looks less like a different color than a variation. I actually don't mind the creamier tile because it looks white to me, but not stark white. I like the prices at HD and can't stand the rude people who work at my local Daltile, so I'd rather shop at HD for those reasons. Can anyone shed any light on the Daltile whites and how to tell them apart? Is Arctic White noticeably whiter than the common HD tile? |
Follow-Up Postings:
linelle, I believe the "(2)" is the price group -- higher being more $. Do you have a Daltile showroom near you? They will give you or lend you a sample board. Arctic White 0190 is the brightest white of the three, followed by White K101 and then White 0100. I tried to take a pic for you but they all looked the same, my camera is not very good, sorry. |
Whoops, sorry skipped over the part about the unfriendly folks at your local Daltile. You could just go look at their boards but not purchase there? |
Oaktown, hahaha, trouble is I have to deal with the Daltile people to look at their boards. I will suck it up and do what I have to do. [I swear this one woman must drink bitter gall every morning. Unfortunately she's the gatekeeper.] Also, I'm not so sure about the basic white being in a higher price group. That seems weird. Unless the bright Arctic White is in the higher price group and the creamier white is less. I like the tile from HD, but I'm wondering if the slight shade variation is just that--a variation--or a totally different color. I want as little variation as possible in my shower. But check out the Rittenhouse Square link. Doesn't Arctic White (1st white) look creamer than the 3rd white? |
Here is a link that might be useful: Rittenhouse Square whites

K101 is a Kohler color ... matches Kohler sinks, etc. 190 is a softer white than 100. |
Any number beginning with K is for Kohler colors. K175 matches Kohler Biscuit. K165 matches Kohler Almond, not to be confused with 0135, which is DalTile's Almond. K101 matches Kohler White. Whites can vary from Kohler to American Standard to Toto, etc... so that's why they are specific. They must have Kohler exclusive color match rights. |
And I know you are talking more about the whites, but for those following along, there is a difference between the Almonds, noticably. One is yellower and one is more grayish. Same could be true for the whites; shade differences. |
linelle, I am pretty sure Rittenhouse Square starts in price group 2. The Semi-Gloss line (4x4 and 6x6) starts in price group 1 for some of the same colors. (We are using Daltile Rittenhouse or Semi-Gloss for four bathrooms). The colors on the website/computer monitor look different in terms of relative brightness from the ones on the sample boards I got from Daltile -- but who knows, maybe someone got the samples mixed up on the boards? Good luck -- maybe you'll catch the Daltile folks on a good day . . . |
annettacm and jelly, thanks so much for explaining the K designation. Well, I will have a Kohler sink, but a Toto toilet and Duravit tub. I'm not overly concerned about matching whites exactly. I've held up the warmer white from HD next to my old toilet, which is pretty white, and it looks fine. Oaktown, when I got the Daltile sample board I was planning on 4x4, so that's maybe why we're talking about two different groupings. My tile guy is coming over Wed. I'll explain the situation and see what he says. I may just stop by Daltile beforehand, being a glutton for punishment. :) |
- Posted by ineffablespace (My Page) on Sun, Apr 20, 14 at 20:46
1,2,3,4 are price designations. Anything that is a brighter or more pure white is going to be more expensive in almost any material: tile, Corian, etc, quartz surfaces, than an off white or speckled white will be. |
ineffable, interesting. I figured it would be the other way around. |
- Posted by ILoveNaptime (My Page) on Sun, Apr 20, 14 at 22:24
I'm looking at the same colors in subway tiles for a backsplash. I found an old post that talks about the colors: http://ths.gardenweb.com/forums/load/bath/msg0215111721182.html . It sounds like Arctic White is the brightest, K101 has a grayish undertone and 0100 is warmer/ yellower. In case you didn't know, the Daltile website sells sample tiles. |
Naptime, thanks for the clarification. I think I can eliminate K101 (sounds like a radio station). I think I'd be fine with 0100, but I'd better get a sample of the Arctic to be sure. My Daltile store will give me a sample tile. |
We have arctic White in our new small master bath. It is VERY white which is what I wanted. I ordered a small vanity online that came with a white porcelain sink attached. The Arctic White matched very well. FYI - We have two sconce lights also in the bath and what I thought were white shades on the sconces have a bluish tint when they were installed next to the tile. So one might draw the conclusion that the Arctic white tile doesn't have a bluish undertone. Doesn't look "warm" but not "blue" either. I'd post a picture but I don't think it's worth it because how the monitor changes the color so much. Good luck. p.s. And I totally agree about the Daltile sales people. But I read on their website somewhere that they are only open to the "trade", hence why they try to discourage us customers who come in without a designer. I wish their website was better organized - at least I could do a lot of window shopping there but I have a great difficulty navigating their website. |

Same experience here when I dropped in our local (45 minute drive) while finishing up appliance purchase. I just stood there. Absolutely no one acknowledged me. Finally I walked down a hall and asked if someone could show me their arctic white in 3x6, which they did but they did not offer a sample. Thing is, Daltile is at least local and known. I don't get it. |
This post was edited by SparklingWater on Mon, Apr 21, 14 at 12:51
Interesting to hear about folks' experiences at Daltile, mine was very different, perhaps it is the "to the trade" aspect as elphaba mentioned. I had called ahead saying that my builder suggested I go there to look at tile and should I make an appointment -- they said no, just drop in. Person there was helpful and gave me two good-sized sample boards, I asked when she needed them back and she said "whenever you're done or just give them to [your builder]." (OT -- You all probably already knew this, but I learned that if you are using a particular contractor, designer, installer, etc. it might be good to mention that at the outset. Early on I dropped into a tile place to browse and was approached by a salesperson who was quite nice and helpful, but after a bit I happened to mention our contractor and the salesperson said, "Oh, sorry I can't help you, that is XXXX's account, she's not in today, you could come back next week or call her for an appointment." I felt so bad making this faux pas!) |

If they are to the trade, they Can't sell to the consumer, so there is not much point in catering to the consumer. They can't Sell you anything including samples, and they can't really Give you samples because samples are supposed to be ordered through the regional rep. I AM in the trade and since I don't do all that much work involving tile when I went to the local Daltile after several years absence , I had to provide a physical copy of my license/tax ID, not just give them the number. It's not just Daltile. I used a local to the trade (but to contractors) place to get the various tile for the last bathroom I did and even though I was in the trade I had to make an appointment through my contractor and purchase the tile through my contractor. They wouldn't even buzz me in the Door without my identifying myself and who my contractor was. At Ann Sacks, even though they are more consumer friendly, when I switched from one Manhattan branch to another, the rep and branch with whom I was not that happy had to be notified that I was switching to a new salesperson and branch.(And we had never placed an actual order yet, just requested samples in preparation for placing an order). And the first time we walked in There, we were invisible, too. As annoying and uncomfortable as it can all be, there are reasons that they are the way they are and the are based in legalities. |

Arctic White 0190, Standard White 0100, Almond Std, 0135, Architectural Gray 0109, all against a sheet of white paper for balance. |
Thanks everyone! LWO, amazing what a piece of white paper will do to put things into context. I braved Daltile today. After being ignored while they helped two guys, because it would have been too much trouble to say, "I'll be with you in a minute," the ogress asked if I was there to pick up an order. No, I replied, I would like a couple of samples. She actually said, "okay, I'll get someone to help you." I've come up in the world. So I asked for and received subways in 0100 and Arctic White. Despite being unfriendly, they've never asked me if I have a contractor, or what their name is, or told they don't deal directly with consumers. How is a consumer to choose a tile so that their contractor can purchase it? Fortunately for me, I have free time to shop around and look at things. When my tile guy comes over on Wed. I want to tell him, these are my choices, buy them for me. Even if bouncing back and forth getting samples for me is built into the quote, I like doing this. So, finally. I can see the difference between 0100 and Arctic White, but I'm not sure I care. As a color, I think I like 0100 better, but if I want to really match the tub, prob. AW is the way to go. Anyone choose 0100 for their shower/tub surround? Do you like it? How does it look with your white tub? ineffable, I think both of these tiles are Level 1. |
What perfect timing! I too am looking for white subway tile and flooring for a master bath remodel and I had looked at the same tiles that you did linelle. So glad you started this thread. Like you, I also was treated rudely at our local Daltile showroom. Nobody ever came out to greet us. The snooty sales woman was in a back room, but clearly she saw us and just glared at us as if we crawled in from the gutter begging for alms. Thanks again for posting this, and thanks to all of the wonderful, knowledgeable people on GW who responded. |

It's that time of the year . . . So, what's the deal with basil?
I think I'm getting a handle on it after many years of growing the stuff. I love the fragrance - sprigs of Thai basil with bean sprouts in a bowl of beef & noodle soup, the dominant spice for pasta sauce, etc. Recently, I tried to come to some vague understanding on the Italian varieties. Sweet basil? Are all Italian varieties "sweet" and suitable for pesto? I commented the other day that basil is often difficult to get started in the Spring because of disease problems. Noticed Bonnie (HighAlt) has Lettuce Leaf. That's the one I have had the most trouble with - - wonderful basil but problematic. digitS' |

Well, Steve, I think a better subject title might have been "Hello, is there anybody out there?" LOL! Maybe the resident pesto expert, David, will be able to answer your question. I was just going to add an observation I've made this year. It seems that the more narrow the leaf, the quicker the variety tries to bolt. The Lemon has very narrow leaves, and has been trying to bolt since very early on. The Cinnamon has a medium width leaf and was the next to start to try and flower, but the Sweet and Lettuce Leaf varieties with the larger leaves, don't seem to be near as intent on setting seed. Anyone else have this experience? I'm also not sure what to use the Cinnamon for. I put it in the pesto, just because I had more of it than the other kinds, and I think it is a very ornamental plant with its purplish leaves and purple flower heads, but what types of dishes is it best in? The lemon seems to be a natural for seafood dishes, and the other two are perfect in tomato based sauces. I'm also wondering if there is a type of basil that could serve as a cilantro substitute? Sorry I'm not much help, Digit. Bonnie (who just finished off my first batch of pesto seasoned pasta for lunch today!) |
I am at that stage of life where I've realized there is far more to know about basil than I could possibly ever even begin to master. I've tried all those various flavors, the mint, cinnamon, lemon, chocolate, vanilla, rocky road, pistachio, and so on. Aside from the novelty of it, "wow, it does taste like cinnamon!! I dunno what to use it for. I grow the one from Territorial, Swiss Sunset, now because it - lasts all summer, will wilt down to the ground and come back up with watering, tastes great, and works well in the greenhouse, garden, western side of the house, and so on. However, I was sorely tempted by some of the other basil offerings from Territorial. Next year, maybe. Probably. They have some big leaf ones, which would make some sense, if they taste good, given that the Swiss Sunset has 1" leaves, and you really need a bunch for pesto. Also, at the farmers market, a purple, small leaf basil, no matter how Dy-no-mite, won't sell. At least here. |
I have started basil from seed, but it needs really warm temps both day and night to sprout. The year I grew from seed I had wonderful basil and we put aside a lot of pesto for the winter. Like all thin-leaved plants, I have to keep it well watered. We're northwest of Denver and the winds blow hot and dry through my yard most of the summer, so watering is crucial. (I know I'm sounding like a broken record here, but watering is really my main issue. Even more than bindweed :) ) |

I would use the Cinnamon, Lemon and Lime basils in Asian dishes (think of Chinese 5 Spice - one of the spices is cinnamon). Large leaf or lettuce leaf basils (like the Genovese) are best in Italian. I use basil in lots of different things, including salsa and fruit salads. |
Thanks for broadening my understanding, Everyone! Could it be that Asian basils are nonsweets while Italian basils are sweets? It would be simple if true. And, the narrowness of the leaves could be some sort of indication. Life is too complex for such generalities, I'm sure. digitS' |
I don't remember where I got this recipe from, but I wish I had enough basil to make it again! Cinnamon Basil Cookies 2 cups flour topping: 1. Sift first 4 ingredients together to cook: |
ooooooh, that's my kind of basil use, Lazyi! I don't think you'd need to have an extra special basil variety but I could be wrong. I see that Park has a cinnamon basil but it looks a lot like the Thai basil in my garden. Move over snickerdoodles! Steve's digits |

How to know the unknowable man
In 1905, on a visit to Richmond, the noted man of letters Henry James was struck by the sight of the equestrian statue of Robert E. Lee high atop its pedestal overlooking Monument Avenue.Read more »
During three days in May 1863, the Confederate leader took astonishing risks to win one of the most skillfully conducted battles in history. But the cost turned out to be too steep.
The ability of Robert E. Lee and Thomas J. ("Stonewall") Jackson never showed itself more vividly than during three days of battle in May 1863 around a rustic crossroads called Chancellorsville. At the battle's denouement, which might be considered the highest tide of the Confederacy, the two Virginians capped a reversal of fortunes as dramatic as any recorded in more than three centuries of American military affairs. Read more »
In the Republic's direst hour, he took command. In the black days after Bull Run, he won West Virginia for the Union. He raised a magnificent army and led it forth to meet his "cautious & weak" opponent, Robert E. Lee. Why hasn't history been kinder to George B. McClellan?
Gen. George B. McClellan possessed a particular talent for dramatic gesture, and on the afternoon of September 14, 1862, at South Mountain in western Maryland, he surpassed himself. Before him on the smoke-wreathed mountaintop, his army was locked in combat with the Confederate enemy. Nearby artillery batteries added their thunder to the roar of musketry, and columns of reinforcements in Federal blue could be seen winding their way up the mountainside.Read more »
Conjectural or speculative history can be a silly game, as in "What if the Roman legions had machine guns?" But this historian argues that to enlarge our knowledge and understanding it sometimes makes very good sense to ask …
What if any of the pre-Civil War Presidents had gone mad?
What if Andrew Johnson had been successfully impeached?
What if William McKinley had not been assassinated?
What if there had been no tape-recording system in Nixon's White House? Read more »
A black chaplain in the Union Army reports on the struggle to take Fort Fisher, North Carolina, in the winter of 1864–65
Hold Fort Fisher or I cannot subsist my army." So wrote General Robert E. Lee in the waning days of 1864 as he watched one Confederate seaport after another fall to the Union armies. Fort Fisher, the strongest fortification yet built in North America, guarded the approach to Wilmington, Norht Carolina, the last haven of blockade-running supply ships and Lee's major supply depot. As the noose closed around Lee's army in Virginia, General Ulysses S.Read more »
Colonel William E. Peters stared at his commanding officer incredulously. Had he heard the order correctly? On whose authority was it given? he asked. Peters, thirty-five years old and a veteran of three years of fighting, had proved his bravery often enough; he had two wounds to show for it. But there were limits beyond which, even in war, he would not—or could not—go. Read more »
About to die at the untimely age of forty-four in 1883, Dr. George Miller Beard, a Connecticut physician and pioneer in neurology, remarked: "I should like to record the thoughts of a dying man for the benefit of science, but it is impossible." And with those words, Dr. Beard passed beyond further speech. Regardless of their inner thoughts, we do at least know what many individuals uttered before giving up the ghost.Read more »
The Corps is supposed to be tough, and is. This often confounds its enemies and sometimes irritates the nation's other services
The United States Marines are a very ancient fighting corps, covered with battle scars and proud of every one of them—so very proud, indeed, that they have developed an extremely high esprit de corps, which has been defined as a state of mind that leads its possessor to think himself vastly superior to members of all other military outfits.
Upon the clash of arms near a little Maryland creek hung the slave's freedom and the survival of the Union
A whitewashed Dunker chrch without a steeple, a forty-acre field of corn that swayed, head-high and green, in the September sun, an eroded country lane that rambled along a hillside behind a weathered snake-rail fence, and an arched stone bridge that crossed a lazy, copper-brown little creek—these unimpressive features of a quiet Maryland landscape made the setting in which one of the greatest moments of crisis in American history came to a solution on the bloody day of September 17, 1862.

Carr Center Leads Human Rights Groups on Visit to the U.S. Military's National Training Center (August 22, 2007)
The Carr Center led a group of human rights groups to visit the U.S. Army's National Training Center and assess the efficacy of its training to protect civilians during Irregular Warfare.
Teaching Leadership and Ethics Post-9/11: Civilian & Military Perspectives on Preparing the Nation's Leaders - May 25-26, 2005
This educators' conference drew educators concerned with ethics and leadership from the Harvard community and from military colleges and senior service schools. Participants explored differences in teaching at their respective institutions and the competing approaches of education and training, including distinctions between academic inquiry and professional preparation. Using the case study of Abu Ghraib, they discussed the diversity of potential pedagogical approaches to the case teaching and more broadly considered the impact of post 9/11 international security challenges on their teaching. We hope that this can be the beginning of an ongoing regularized exchange between instructors at civilian and military institutions and welcome inquiries and suggestions to that end.
Democracy and Human Rights at WHINSEC - January 20-21, 2005
The Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation (WHINSEC), in coordination with the Project on the Means of Intervention, hosted a group of representatives from human rights organizations -- including Human Rights Watch, the Center for International Policy, and the Carr Center -- to discuss the Institute's Democracy and Human Rights curriculum. In addition to exchanging ideas about course materials and strengthening ties between WHINSEC and the human rights community, the visitors observed classroom instruction and participated in a panel discussion with students. WHINSEC, located at Ft. Benning, GA, provides professional education and training for civilian, military and law enforcement students from throughout the Western Hemisphere.
Civilian Engagement at the National Training Center - January 27-28, 2004
In January 2004, the Carr Center hosted representatives from the National Training Center (NTC) and humanitarian relief organizations to explore how an increase in direct input from international organizations, governmental organizations, and nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) could be useful in planning and executing their training exercises. The discussions raised a variety of issues regarding tensions in civil-military relations that have arisen un recent conflicts, and how civilian input into formulating scenarios and training the role players and observer/controller exercise "referees" might help improve the realism of that aspect of NTC's simulated battlefield training.
NTC, the Army's largest maneuver combat training center, provides training and feedback in simulated battlefield conditions for thousands of soldiers every year. NTC's training approach reflects a relatively recent shift from an exclusive focus on warfighting to addressing the complexities facing the military in recent stability and support operations in the post-major combat operation phase of operations. The training exercises strive to replicate the conditions troops will face in country as accurately as possible. "Civilians on the battlefield" (role players) populate several simulated villages in efforts to replicate the diversity of actors that troops are likely to encounter during operation.

Anne Hathaway Got All Sexy and Stuff for British GQ (PHOTOS)
Helloooooooo, Anne Hathaway!
The Devil Wears Prada beauty heats up the March 2010 issue of British GQ, gracing the venerable men's publication with more-than-generous glimpses of herself via a series of photographs by Mark Seliger.
But it's not all about turning on the readers with pictures for Anne; she also manages to get everyone hot and bothered in the interview. Such as when she discusses her on-screen kissing technique (tip: It's even sexier if you read the following passage with James Earl Jones' voice in your head):
"You have to leave your mouth open a little bit. Open up. More, more, ever so lightly…Otherwise you're going to be getting smoothy. Now, slow it down...just a little bit."
Whew; is it getting a little warm in here? Then you definitely don't want to click on our photo gallery, because that's not going to help matters any at all.
