Is there trouble in another "Real Housewife" marriage?
There have been rocky times for Teresa and Joe Giudice of "The Real Housewives of New Jersey," and RadarOnline.com has exclusively obtained a photo of Joe out with another woman!
Tuesday night in Clifton, New Jersey, Bravo reality star Joe Giudice was spotted out dining with a woman who was definitely not his wife.
"I was in the T.G.I. Fridays and saw Joe and this woman who was NOT Teresa having a drink in a booth by the bar," eyewitness Erin exclusively told RadarOnline.com.
"They were drinking martinis and when the woman finished hers she took a sip out of Joe's glass too. They looked like they were having a good time together and laughing with each other."
After a waiter brought them wet naps the woman opened hers and "wiped Joe's hands off with hers," Erin said. "It was really intimate to see her touching his hands like that.
"They looked very comfortable and cozy together."
PHOTOS: Reality TV's Hottest Stars
The brunette woman was wearing a white top, carried a Louis Vuitton purse and according to Erin she "appeared to be in her late 20s or early 30s."
Despite recently renewing their vows, the couple, who has four children, has been going through a rough patch and some reports said the renewal ceremony was just for show.
While her husband was having a cocktail with another woman 30 miles away, Teresa was hard at work at the Posche fashion show at the Son Cubano restaurant and Tom Murro provided the photo of her sitting with co-star Kathy Wakile at the event.
"I don't think divorce is an option, unless it's over something horrible like cheating," Teresa said in a recent interview. "Not every day is perfect, but you try to make it as perfect as you can."

Pickens sells wind belt plan today in Fargo
T. Boone Pickens went to Fargo Thursday to tout his plan for weaning the nation's gluttonous energy appetite off foreign oil.
The oil wildcatter turned wind farmer advocates using natural gas to fuel truck and bus transit fleets to replace oil, much of it from unfriendly foreign countries.
To do that, he wants to turn much of the Great Plains, from Texas to North Dakota, into wind farms - enough to generate 200,000 megawatts of electricity.

Comments on Overhang Area | Add Comment |
Show which comments —
By Brian Schoep Apr 18, 2005 |
Hey All, I've been trying to figure out the name and rating of a route up here. It is towards the left hand side of the Overhang Area. The first three bolts follow an open book with a finger crack in the back of it. The left face is quite smooth, but the right face has some small edges. It leads to an overhang with a handjam after which it heads to the left to one more bolt and some coldshuts. If anyone knows what this is, I would love the info. Thanks. |
By Randy Carmichael From: Boulder, CO Apr 19, 2005 |
Brian, the route you are describing I believe is an un-named 5.8. |
By Buff Johnson Aug 14, 2006 |
There's a natural line just climber's right of #46 (as noted in the beta pic -- #46=Offline). It takes good gear, I think 4-5 cams & a bolt to finish. A couple of balancy stem moves using some crack for good hands & fingers taking the overhangs more directly. Not too bad at all. The crux (I thought) is pulling the overhang to the right of the 2nd bolt located on Offline. |
By Ken Trout From: Golden, CO Dec 10, 2007 |
We've put winch hook anchors on over thirty routes up at the Golden Cliffs Preserve. Mostly on routes I'd bolted originally. Just clip the rope in and lower off. No need to risk rappel cleaning. When these hooks get worn, they are easy and safe to replace. Here is what we used from Home Depot in Golden: 1/2" Quick Link, rated to 1498kg, used to attach hook to bolt hanger or existing rings, $4.17. The links don't get worn and won't need much future replacement. 3/4" X 4-1/4" Winch Hook, rated to 1,134kg, can easily be replaced in the future, $4.77. |
By Mike Howard Administrator Dec 10, 2007 |
Ken, I want to be the first to thank you for your effort and expense. Might just save a life and that deserves kudos. I have been looking for mussy hooks and the only site I found them on was Fish. Did you say you got them at Home Depot as well or just the quick links? Do you oppose the hook gates? A photo would be great of the set-up. Thanks again, Mike Edit 1/18/08: Thanks for the HD info and the photo and the effort. Cheers Mike |
By Dave Clark 5.10 From: Golden, CO Aug 19, 2010 |
Route R is Toura Obscura. It felt like a solid 5.9 relative to other GC routes. Not a bad route, but lots of bird crap didn't help. |

worn spot on interior leather seats
I have some worn spots on the interior leather seats of my classic corvette. The seats are not torn and are otherwise in good shape. What is the best way to repair them?
Sponsored Links | |||
Advertisement |
Go to a local car dealership and talk to the service manager. There are companies, usually one man operations, that do nothing but go around to dealers and repair seats, dashes, etc. I have had some spots repaired on some leather seats in a Chevy pickup. The guy did a nice job. He mixes the color to match, sprays it on, and puts a sealer over the top of it. This is the way I would go.
I take it that the leather is fading and starting to crack from getting in and out of the vehicle. Go to an auto upholstery shop and see what it would cost to have new side panels put in, or look up a Corvette restoration place on the net or in some specialty catalogs and see what a new set of seat covers run. This is an item you can put on yourself with some hog rings and ring pliers. Winters coming so just pull the seats yourself and take them to an upholsterers and let them work their magic. After all you stated it's a classic so keep it a classic and don't cut corners.

Hello friends,
I'm writing today to link you guys to what I consider to be an amazing cause.
Our blogger, Emma, is currently going through a transition from Male to Female. She is having some problems covering the costs of this transition and is looking for donations to help her.
Emma has been an amazing part of the Mediafile. She's given us amazing insights into a lot of different topics. Feel free to check out my favorite article here.
If you would like to help support her transition, please follow this link. Thank you!
This article will discuss Seasons 1 of The Walking Dead by Telltale Games. It will contain heavy spoilers and my thoughts on the series. First, for those that haven't played the games, a spoiler free synopsis.
Telltale Games has made a name for themselves by producing popular IPs into point and click games.
The first game of theirs I played was Back to the Future in 2011, just before the last chapter was released. I had a blast playing it and it brought me back to my youth when I played games like King's Quest, Monkey Island and Grim Fandango. It also continued the story of BttF after the trilogy of movies. Hearing that Telltale was going to be releasing a point and click game based on The Walking Dead was wonderful news to me! I had enjoyed the first season of the AMC show and read the first 100 or so issues of the comic. I didn't end up playing Season 1 until the first 4 chapters had been released, but I was in no way, shape or form disappointed. It was a familiar setting: Georgia at the beginning of the plague that turned humanity into lifeless husks that craved the flesh of the living.
You follow the story of Lee Everett, a convicted killer. On his way to prison, he escapes custody and finds his way to the house of a young girl named Clementine. Lee realizes that Clem's parents went on vacation to Savannah and were most likely dead, but she wants to find them. Lee agrees to travel with her in her search. That is the major plot of Season 1. Along the way, you meet many other survivors, get into harrowing scenarios and are forced to make decisions that determine who lives and who dies. The game is dynamic, and changed depends on how you interact with other characters and the choices you make. It is, in all honesty, one of the best stories I've ever seen in a game. Some of the moments are a little over the top, but overall, this story will pull at your heartstrings and make you question your own morality at times. You will grow with Lee and Clementine and their fellow travelers. I can't recommend this game enough. It's currently on sale via Steam.
At this point, the rest of this article is going to full of spoilers. If you've played Seasons 1, feel free to continue. I'll try and keep it broken down by Episode, so even if you've played some of Season 1, but not all of it, you can read my thoughts.
I will be writing a pretty in depth article about The Walking Dead by Telltale Games tomorrow. This is just a teaser to get the juices flowing. I just finished Season 2 Chapter 5 for the second time and chose a few different options. I may beat it one more time just to see the last ending that a friend described to me.
There will, of course be MAJOR SPOILERS discussed, so if you haven't played the games, DO NOT READ MY ARTICLE. SERIOUSLY.
I'll see you all tomorrow afternoon.
If you've listened to any of the Mediafile Podcasts with me on them, you'll notice that we mention a lot that I am not from Rhode Island/New England. This is strange for anyone living in New England as they mostly don't seem to notice that there's a world outside of their corner. (Sorry, guys, I gotta get my jokes in where I can…)
The thing about being from the South is that yeah, people tend to be a little more narrow-minded when it comes to, well, everything. That's okay though because there are also some amazing people from the South, too.
Today though, I was very disturbed to see that an openly-gay man in the Country music-scene, Joey Greenwell, is now claiming that he's straight and is going by Nate Green. Check the main article out by clicking me.
Is this a product of the South, selling-out, or the general fact that stereotypes reign?

In the studio this week, we welcomed a new person to the lineup, which included:
Today, we 'enjoyed' the Bud Light with Lime Apple-ahh-Rita, and we discuss our experience with one of our films featued in the Rhode Island International Film Festival, everyone's hatred of Seinfeld, the nature of spoilers and Kevin Spacey in Call of Duty (including delving into the idea of video games as legit art, etc…)

Hello faithful MediaFile readers, Caitlin here to apologize and beg profusely for your forgiveness at the lack of content the blog has had recently.
The guys at Aperture Chat have completely revamped their programming this week. Rather than one long podcast style video each week, the new format focuses on having 5 daily segments, each focusing on what was one part of the podcast previously.
Monday | News Keeping you up to date. |
Tuesday | Product Previews and Reviews The More Money Than Brains Club |
Wednesday | The Two-Way A weekly discussion and debate. |
Thursday | News Redux Because news comes more than once a week. |
Friday | Games and Challenges |
The new format begins with Episode 15: Welcome to the New Format. This much more easily digestible format, which they make light of as "daily chunks that you can watch while you eat your breakfast," is generally 15-18 minutes in duration. Even if you're not the least bit interested in photography, they are fairly entertaining, and it's generally not too nerdy.
Also, you can follow their blog at http://aperturechat.com.
I just finished watching this week's episode of 24: Live Another Day. Hit the jump to read the spoilerific review!

"Latta Lea Golf Club" Greece Things to Do Tip by davecallahan
Greece Things to Do: 3 reviews and 3 photos
On vacation and you didn't bring your golf clubs and you have an hour or so to kill?
On vacation with older kids and you'd like to have an easy golf experience for them?
Never played the game before and would like to take a quick lesson while on vacation?
Then visit Latta Lea 3-Par Golf Club. For $10 a person you can play 9 holes with rented clubs and balls or for $30 you can get a one-hour lesson in the use of the clubs and some practice holes.
All the holes on the course are 320 yards or less. The fairways are a bit tight and two holes have real water hazards. Other than those holes though, the course is generally considered easy even for duffers like myself.

POSTED: Wednesday, April 22, 2009 - 2:35pm

Supreme Court hears reverse discrimination case from Connecticut firefighters...
20 firefighters from New Haven, Connecticut who qualified then were denied promotions took their case to the U.S. Supreme Court Wednesday.
The city turned them down because they're white and they're claiming discrimination.
Questions about whether this test was discriminatory led the city to scrap it altogether after no black applicants qualified.
The high court will decide if that is reverse discrimination.
"If you work hard and you study and apply yourself at your job, you can do well in America," said firefighter Frank Ricci.
But it didn't work out that way for Frank Ricci and 19 other firefighters in New Haven, Connecticut.
They passed the exam to become captains and lieutenants.
But since no black applicants passed and statistically some should have, the city scrapped the test and no one got promoted.
City officials fear the exam may have been discriminatory. Civil rights groups hope the Supreme Court agrees.
"It will be possible for employers to take actions to avoid discrimination when they are faced with test results that result in really outrageous preclusion of African americans," said John Payton of the NAACP Legal Defense Fund.
"The only thing wrong with this test is it didn't suit the political agenda of New Haven's Mayor," said Karen Torre, the attorney representing the firefighters.
It's a case that could affect all employers seeking diversity and trying to comply with title seven which is the federal law prohibiting employment discrimination.
The court must decide if New Haven has to prove the test discriminated or are the results proof enough?
Today, a government attorney noted design flaws in the test and called the scores "arbitrary."
Justices pressed attorneys to distinguish between racial discrimination, which is illegal, and race-conscious decisions, which are not.

Students enthusiastically participated in the programme which included speeches by students, songs and a skit on 'The History of Intellectual Awakening of India'. The skit concluded with the recitation of the famous poem of Rabindranath Tagore 'Where the mind is without fear….' The school also conducted an elocution competition, essay writing competition and debate competition. The winners were felicitated. The school principal Ms. Bharati Lakshmi lit the lamp to begin the programme.

So what a week. The first full week of 2015 brought all kinds of crazy. There was a RIF at work that was bittersweet. While some of the paranoia inducing folks are gone, lots of hardworking good people were also taken out in the process. Also, there was an officer involved shooting that affected one of the communities to which I belong. My commentary is minimal about both happenings for two reasons: 1) I'm not entirely sure what to say and find that letting my confusion be my guide usually works well, and 2) some of the initial reactions are entirely unpopular and liable to hurt feelings. The whole thing has me a bit confused, looking for direction, and not entirely sure I like what my inner voice is telling me. The inner voice is telling me to remain calm and stay the course. So all of that aside, the kitchen continues to run smoothly!
Let's recap since the last installment:Rice and Egg Bake, while creepy in appearance has been quite enjoyable both fresh and as leftovers. I have misplaced the cook book and can't find anything similar on the web, but here's a picture:
If you search for Egg and Rice bake, there are lots of variants....in this one, you mix the yolks with powdered mustard and basically make upside down deviled eggs in the rice. A note here, if you are using fresh eggs, conventional wisdom will tell you that your eggs won't hardboil. That is hogwash, the trick is to shock the eggs in cold water immediately after cooking, causing the membrane to shrink from the shell. Also, peeling under cold water helps keep the eggs from sticking.
The rest of last week was good eating! I'm happy to report the steam bun dough made for delicious peirogi. The bit of sweet and the hearty bite of over-risen dough was a delight.
The Week Ahead
So shopping this week was actually slightly impressive. Pork loin was on sale for $2.49/lb; $26 later we have 4 just right sized roasts. Not bad at all. I didn't hit NPS this week, so I paid a bit more for some stuff, but all told I was only into Smith's for $45. My target is $50 a week and >30% savings....so I'm on target!Beef stew and pork chili will be nice considering we are supposed to get weather again. Hearty soups and stews are wonderful when its cold and dreary.
Tater Tot Taco Bake flew by my facebook feed. My only gripe is that this recipe ends up costing more than most meals I make due to the specialty canned goods and cheese that is not on sale.
Chicken with plum sauce will be an experiment. Last summer, PL brought me some early season plums from up north. It wasn't enough for jam, and neither myself nor Husbear care for fresh plums, so I made a jar of plum sauce to store. It came out last weekend as part of a Dim Sum tea party for his daughter who was returning to her Mother. I think I'll just crock pot the mess and serve with rice and veggies. The other option would be to fry up pre-bredded patties and pour it over that, but the sauce may be just a bit too heavy for that.
Since the sourdough starter refuses to die....and trust me, in the past two weeks its a wonder it hasn't, I'm going to give Kraut Bierok a shot. This is one of those recipes that goes way back in my mining, German, blue collar heritage. This will make a substantial quantity, so the leftovers will go into the freezer. I'm also going to make a curry ketchup to go with these. While ketchup in itself would be delightful, I think curried ketchup will be amazing. To make curried ketchup, just mix curry powder into ketchup to taste....and remember the flavors will intensify greatly the longer it sits.
I'm also patiently waiting to see if my parents managed to get the German Strudle recipe down for sharing. Its another high carb, high fat, poor people food, but has been a special recipe in my family for generations. If they get it figured out, I'll be sure to share it.
Not quite as lengthy this week. I hope 2015 is finding you healthy and well-adjusted. So far, its off to a crazy start, so I'll keep cooking!

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks – interviewed at Quest Diagnostics in May 2012.
Interview DetailsHR of Quest contacted me about a week after I submitted my resume, and they just confirmed the first on-site interview time with me.
Regarding the interview, the front-desk staff asked for my offer letter and photo identification before they informed the interviewer. Interview last 30 min or so. And most talks focused on my in-class project which is strongly related to this position and my interesting undergraduate activity experience which has nothing to do with the job. Questions about programming were also raised.To my surprise, nothing about my previous internships(they are not relevant anyway).Interview Questions- Nothing Answer Question
Negotiation DetailsI requested to postpone the start date and they agreed.Accepted OfferEasy Interview -
4 people found this helpful
Application DetailsThe process took a day – interviewed at Quest Diagnostics in October 2009.
Interview DetailsI was interviewed by two managers for a senior analyst position. For anyone looking to interview with them, make sure you are familiar with the company and can speak to the current health care environment and how Quest will be effected by it. Also, make sure you know your basic financial concepts like ROE, ROI, Leverage, etc. The people were very open and professional. I got the impression that they run a really lean shop (read: understaffed, underpaid and overworked), which makes sense since their margins are pretty thin.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 days – interviewed at Quest Diagnostics in February 2009.
Interview DetailsGot invited in through a connection. Ist interview mid February, They did not have a job description. Went through full day of interviews with 6 different people. Was invited to take a timed online aptitude test, HR and hiring manager went silent for one month, after which there was suddenly a job description (read much like my resume)and they posted the job. I got invited back for a second round on interviews in late March and then heard nothing despite calls to HR and the hiring manager. I got a call in JUNE, from hiring manager telling me I did not get the job and detailing the persons qualifications that they hired which were entirely different than my skill set (and the job description). I also had 2 recomendations from within the company for the hire. Very dissappointing process and has soured my image of them as a company.

The Quiet Radicalism of Kanye West's Fashion Collection
Say what you like about Kanye West — everyone does — but there's one thing for certain, and that's that America's most consistently fascinating musician is a mass of contradictions. They've always manifested to various extents in his music: braggadocio and self-awareness (contrast his verse on the remix of Beyoncé's "Ego" with "Runaway," for instance), arrogance and vulnerability, the desire to control his public image and the propensity for doing spontaneous, often ill-advised things that undermine it. They all seem to come back to a desire to which a lot of us can relate: wanting to be accepted by the establishment while at the same time wanting to tear it down. It's perhaps no surprise, then, that it's his ongoing obsession with fashion, and specifically the new line he's created for Adidas, that have thrown these contradictions into the sharpest relief. … Read More

Art History Masterpieces Transformed Into Surreal Typefaces
Typography and art nerds, this one's for you.

Vermeer's Girl with a Pearl Earring, Katsushika Hokusai's The Great Wave off Kanagawa, and Michelangelo's David are just a few of the famous artworks that Ezer transforms into type-friendly images. Fingers, facial hair, and phalluses are dissected from well-known paintings and sculptures to form letters, using the artwork itself as a backdrop. It's a bizarre, but fun remix of art's greatest masterpieces. … Read More

Workout woes include damaged toenails, and Shape magazine's May issue talks about prevention and treatment. According to the magazine, "'Tennis toe'—the bruising and thickening of your big toenail—is the result of sports that involve quick stops and turns," and "'jogger's toe,' the loosening (or loss) of a nail, occurs due to repeated slamming."
Dermatologists tell the magazine to treat a bruised tip with a thick balm and to bandage it as well if the nail matrix is bruised. If the nail falls off, apply an antibacterial ointment and keep it covered.
Wearing shoes that fit well will prevent toenail damage.
Wearing flip-flops in gym showers will prevent athlete's foot. Get an over-the-counter cream to treat symptoms if you're infected.

Jared Leto (lɛtoʊ; born December 26, 1971) is an American actor, singer, songwriter, and director. After starting his career with television appearances in the early 1990s, Leto achieved recognition for his role as Jordan Catalano on the television series My So-Called Life...Wikipedia
Age: 43
Born: 26th December, 1971, Bossier City, Louisiana, USA
Height: 5' 9" (175 cm)
Nationality: American
Claim to Fame: My So-Called Life (TV Show) Oscar Win Supporting Actor Dallas Buyers Club
Who can be romantically linked to Jared Leto...and how closely?
Leto directed the videos for the songs "The Kill" and "From Yesterday" under the alias of Bartholomew Cubbins , and "A Beautiful Lie" under the alias of Angakok Panipaq .
For most shows, Leto uses either one of two custom-made Steve McSwain guitars, a white one called "Pythagoras" or a black one called "Artemis". The guitars— identical except that one is black and the other white — have the image of a gryphon which he drew for McSwain.
"I think I learned a lot from Thirty Seconds to Mars. I learned a lot from directing. I learned a lot from touring around the world and I applied all that to the role. I poured it all in to this portrayal and this unique person,"
About the weight loss, Leto said, "It was the only way that I could do what I had to do. I mean it's not a good thing to do. It's certainly not a good thing to keep doing. Your body is not a rubber band. It doesn't always bounce back or snap back. It's something that you should be very careful about. I would never recommend anyone doing it."

iPod to appear in Metal Gear Solid 4, iPhone parody in GTA IV
According to screenshots (Front view/Rear view) posted by well-known French video games publication JeuxFrance, the iPod will make an appearance as an equippable item in the upcoming Konami game Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots. The screenshots from the highly-anticipated game show a white 30GB fifth-generation iPod, complete with iPod markings and trademark identifiers. Developed by acclaimed producer Hideo Kojima, Metal Gear Solid 4 will be released worldwide for the PlayStation 3 console on June 12.
Coincidentally, a parody of the Apple iPhone, and indeed the company itself, appears in the recently-released Grand Theft Auto IV. A webpage for a company called "Fruit" appears in the game, encouraging its customers to "Think Fruit." Towards the bottom of the page, an advertisement for the new "iFruit Phone" appears, with the following description: "No buttons. No reception. No storage capacity. All ego." The phone itself resembles the real iPhone, save for its banana-like curved body.

Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers out there, it can be a hard job but the best! Good work!" Hilary also shared her thoughts on motherhood with People recently, adding that, "I think asking for help on a tired day isn't a sign of weakness. A lot of changes have come into your life quickly and it's important to take time for yourself!"
Hilary wore a bikini during the sunny days, which included hanging out poolside, hitting the beach, and kicking a ball around the grass. Hilary is just one of the many famous moms who celebrated Mother's Day in a special way including Jessica Alba, who went out to brunch with her family of four.

Buyer's Remorse? Purchasing Paralysis?
Q: "How do you know when you're investing in the right piece for a room? I'm paralyzed to pull the trigger and then later realize the table, curtains, or rug I'm currently eying aren't 'the answer' for my room and then spend years regretting them." – Melissa
We get a lot of questions like this one. So after around six years spent decorating two houses on a pretty modest budget, with a nice heaping portion of mistakes and trial and error worked in there, here's what we've learned. We definitely don't get it right every time. Sometimes we're too risky, and sometimes we're too safe, and sometimes the proportion or the size of something is wrong and we just can't see it until we get it home and stare at it for a while. Sometimes there's an item that we think will be functional and it ends up leaving much to be desired. In short: you win some and ya lose some when it comes to making your house a home. So if at first you don't succeed, try, try again. And again.
Mistake #1. The fluffy green rug in the living room. Cost: $425 (it's an 8 x 10′ wool rug).
We moved into this house and had never even attempted to decorate a giant 25 x 15′ family room (for comparison's sake our first house's family room was tiny, just nine feet wide) so – surprise! – we didn't get it right the first time. We bought a super shaggy rug that was way too small for the room and while the shag was nice for a baby, it was terrible for a food-spilling' toddler. So we did the only thing we have ever found to fix issues like that. We course corrected and decided that we don't need to be married to our mistake and invested in a better rug for the room (more on that here).
I think everyone has those oops moments when they're decorating a house – even if you're going slowly over time and doing your best to only choose things you think will work well for your family. You just can't see the future – and we're certainly no exception! The end result is that we love the living room a ton more with our new much-larger short weave rug that adds pattern without dwarfing the living area. And we'll either reuse the first rug in another room (it could work in our guest room and then the yellow rug in there could end up in the sunroom) or we'll probably end up selling it on Craigslist if we can't find a spot for it. So knowing there are other options besides "just use the wrong rug that we hate forever" takes the sting out of it a little bit.
In general, reusing things in other spaces or Craigslisting them if they just don't work is a nice little backup plan that allows us to just figure things out along the way without being completely out of luck when we don't get everything right on the first try. And recognizing those two alternatives allowed us to go for it (instead of being shaking-in-our-boots-scared) when the right rug came along. So if it took a buying one item twice (knowing we can craigslist or reuse the first rug somewhere else) to get to the end result of this room, we're 100% cool with that. I actually don't think we've ever redone a room without switching something out along the way. So getting everything right on the first try is akin to seeing a unicorn in the front yard to us.
Mistake #2. The stools in the kitchen. Cost: around $150 including four stools plus primer and spray paint to later make them blue.
After we accidentally found stools that we loved more (seriously, they came out of nowhere) we actually sold the original stools on Craigslist for the entire amount that we spent. So one hundred and fifty beans are back in our pocket, and we have new stools that we love for $140 (so I guess in the end we made ten bucks, haha). The only thing we're out is the time it took to spray paint them, but that's totally worth the opportunity to essentially "test drive" two pairs of stools to us – and then land on the right ones that we love to pieces. Bonus: they swivel and are contoured so they're the most functional/comfortable as well as the purtiest.
Mistake #3. The chairs in the dining room. Cost: $400 for eight chairs (including the $25 chairs themselves, the slipcovers, the dye, the spray paint, etc).
You guys probably remember this switcheroo, but we eventually realized (after about a million attempts to make them work that included slipcovers, die, and spray paint) they just weren't The Ones. Sometimes we're dense and it takes a while. So instead of continuing to spend money and time struggling to make them work, we finally cut our losses and set them free. Guess how much we got for them on Craigslist? $200. Yup, we recouped the entire original cost of the $25-a-pop chairs. We considered listing them for $50 each to try to get back the entire amount, but we thought that in order to sell them quickly and just cut our losses, $25 each was a fair price.
It was nice to know that they went to a loving home (their new owner is a reupholstery master and is planning to recover all eight of them!) and we ended up with six loungier super-on-sale Target chairs that we love to pieces. We're so glad that the table is a lot less cluttered (99% of the time there are just three of us sitting here) and we even got two extra chairs in that new set that we couldn't use (there were eight but we only wanted six) so we craigslisted those for their original cost of $62 each. We weren't even turned off by having to buy too many of something that we thought would be perfect because we knew we could always Craigslist those two extras for the full price (there are many much uglier chairs on craigslist for $75+ so we knew ours would sell).
So the $400 chairs ended up being a $200 mistake (since we only earned 50% of that back) but in the end we love our dining room, and if it took that mistake to get us from here…
… to here, we'll take it.
Sure, we lose sometimes (and you have to hand it to us, we really bomb on occasion) but it pays to keep trying and not just give up and settle for something that doesn't work until you finally get those "this is IT!" butterflies… even if they don't come easy. In the end, we're just happy that we also made a bunch of big purchases that we love without needing any do-overs. So although a few things don't work out for us, many many things are great from the moment we get them. For example, we love:
- our Corian counters
- our cork floors
- Ed the bed
- the big patterned rug in the bedroom
- the upholstered headboard we made
- Karl the sectional
- our giant living room storage ottoman
- our kitchen appliances
- our laundry appliances
- a bunch of new lights that we made/bought
- our new dining table
- our craigslist buffet
- all of the curtains we've made/bought throughout the house
- the console we built in the living room
- our thrift store media cabinet
- our Ikea bookcase in the sunroom
- our office built-ins
- our office chairs
- the round jute rug in the office
- Clara's secondhand dresser and chair in her nursery
- Clara's crib
- our new craigslist dresser for Clara's big girl room
So even with the loss that we took on the three mistakes that we detailed in this post (including all of our desperate attempts to save them) in the end we've loved far more items than we've bought and regretted. I think sometimes you just have to try the wrong things and live with them to learn that you didn't want to live with them. Haha. It's like how you have to get that glittery purple eye shadow to learn that no (NO!) it's not gonna work, and you should probably try something else. Heck, I rocked some winking airbrushed jeans for a while as a teen. And then realized… uh, not good. That's course correcting at its finest.
And actually, when we remember that we had a yard sale last fall and made $350 as well as selling $750 worth of old kitchen stuff on craigslist to earn money to put into that remodel (we got $90 for the old black microwave, $60 for the old fireplace insert, $120 for our old dining table and chairs, $90 for our old bisque dishwasher, $350 for our old granite, $40 for our old bisque wall oven) we've definitely used resale opportunities to the fullest. So those three mistakes above hurt less when we look at the $1,100 that we've made by not being married to a bunch of other things that we no longer want to live with.
Hopefully this post makes it easier to see how no purchase has to be forever, and things like reusing them in other spaces (be flexible!) or Craigslist can be awesome alternatives if you're not exactly rolling in money for a million do-overs. In short: don't sit there paralyzed with fear, afraid to get something. Obviously try to think things through and only buy things you can afford, but just don't torture yourself by believing that mistakes aren't allowed. If you do that you'll never buy anything and your house will never move forward. Not only are mistakes allowed, they happen to everyone. The odds are that you'll probably love most of your choices and regret a few of them. But that's normal, there are ways to remedy it, and it's completely worth it in the end.
Creating a room that you love thanks to some obligatory trial and error can really be way more "valuable" than committing to a few items ten years ago and desperately trying to decorate around them (even though you no longer love them) instead of letting them go. Sometimes getting new curtains and pillows and other little accessories to "accent" a piece that you don't even like can cost more than just biting the bullet and switching the bad item out for something you love, you know?
And the good news is that the whole house-sprucing journey usually has a happy ending if you keep on keeping on. So try to keep the faith, get back on the ol' horse, and remember that there are always returns if the pillow that you thought you'd love ends up being the pillow that you loathe – and there's always Craigslist and yard sales (along with tax-write-off donations) for any of that non-returnable stuff.

Our last major buyers remorse purchase was quite a bit larger (Our sectional couch we thought we were splurging on). We just didn't really think it through. We were newly married and didn't have ANY furniture yet and when we saw this one thought we loved it. It didn't take long before we realized all the things we DIDN'T love about it. You are right though, until we had it we couldn't truly understand what we don't like about it to know what to avoid next time. We still have so much other furniture we NEED (with a super tight budget) that finding a different couch probably won't happen for quite awhile.
I would totally buy the shaggy green rug!
I dont :o( Cincinnati.
I am turning into a bit of a craigslist connoisseur myself. Something else that people can consider is offering trades on craigslist. We are applying to become foster parents, so our guest room with a queen bed needs to turn into a kid-friendly bedroom with 2 twin sized beds. I figured that there have to be people out there who are looking to upgrade their kid's bed from a twin to a queen, so I posted on craigslist that we will trade our queen (plus frame and box springs) for one or two twins. It only took two days before we found someone who was up for trading!
So much of design and decorating is about proportion and the space to furnishing ratio. You frequently mention in your posts (living on the ledge) how things should be wider/narrower, taller/shorter in comparison to the objects around it. There are also some basic rules of thumb about how much walk space to leave in a dining room and where a rug should be placed under the furniture. I'd love to see a post where you talk about these things all in one place!
Hahaha is that a poster of a cat peering thru a hole in your childhood room? You ought to hang THAT is Clara's big girl room :)
I just had to drop by and say how much i love ur book. So many interesting ideas. I delivered a baby boy the weekend of Sandy ( crazy i know!!) so i havent been able to dive into any projects yet with my little peanut demanding my attention… But soon, i cant wait.
On another note… Did clara ever have rice cereals before 6 mnths? Or was it just BM and directly onto solids at 6? Thanks !!
Oh, and another buyer's remorse. I decided to try having an ottoman as a coffee table, so I bought a $10 one at a garage sale. It was too cushy, and too casual for our somewhat formal living room.
I replaced with a coffee table that I cobbled together from an antique library card catalog, an old mirror and wheeled casters. See?
And that $10 ottoman? I just sold it on Craigslist for $30.
You have a gift, Katy. No, it's a super power.
Will never be over that photo of a young Sherry. It reminds me of the bedroom door I had when I was 9- covered in Teenbeat rip outs of Justin Timberlake, Jonathan Taylor Thomas and Britney Spears! And I too was a victmi of the embellished jeans trend.
Apparently my typing skills are also criminal today.
Great post! I suffer from purchasing paralysis!! After reading this, I see I'm not alone and that if something doesn't work re-purpose it or sell it. Makes life a lot less stressful. Thanks.
I think everyone makes design mistakes. Not just buying stuff. I painted my whole dining room damask when we first moved into the house, then as the rest of the house evolved it was as non-cohesive as Evenecense showing up to your grandma's birthday party.
You've been lucky to sell things on Craig's List. I've never had much luck with them. Right now I have a 20-inch girl's bicycle and two framed 4 x 6 bulletin boards with nary a nibble.
ugh we are terrible at picking out rugs. I feel like we haven't gotten it right once yet. I really love your living room rug. We actually have a smaller version of it that we want to put in our bedroom but the pale walls aren't working with it. I need to get on it and darken the room up a bit for contrast!
Hey guys,
So I am a student at DePaul University in Chicago. I am doing a market research projectt targeting DIYers and their opinion on oscillating tools. The survey only takes about 5-10 minutes and you have a chance of winning $100 Visa Gift Card. I dont want people to think I am spamming them, just looking for honest, informed opinions.
Great advice in decorating and in life.
What a great post! It is good to see your process. It is amazing how things can seem so good at first (or in a picture) and then turn out oh so bad.
Great post! Sometimes it's so hard to admit a bad decision. Luckily, the majority of mine have been paint colors, so that's an easy (although time consuming) fix. There are rooms in my house that have been 4 colors in 10 years but I think I finally have everything just the way I like it.
I'm also just starting to learn to buy things that *I* love and not worry about how HGTV, or design sites, or even friends say my house should look. It's my house, so I'm the only one who has to love it. (Although, I'd totally move into your house and not change a thing!)
This was such a great post! I don't know what the deal is, but I can walk into someone else's room, and know exactly what I would do to it to make it comfy/beautiful for me. Ideas up the wazoo……… but when it comes to my own home, I am filled with such anxiety about making the right decision and worry about not wasting money. I needed this reminder that everyone can make a decorating mistake, and it's possible to course correct to find things you really love. Thanks!
I'm the same way, Jeanna!
I love that you guys share your "mistakes" – that's one reason why I keep coming back every day!
It's reassuring because I have done this too. I bought really expensive curtains that I liked for awhile, but quickly realized how wrong they were for our space. I just kept thinking, but they were so *expensive* and I don't want to *waste* money, all the while being miserable in my home every day. How much is that worth?!
I have major buyer's remorse over my living room furniture. We moved from our apartment to a house with 2 living areas and we had A single couch. So, off to the store we went, we got a sofa, loveseat, chair and coffee table "set" (gag me) and when they delivered it, I about passed out. It was HUGE, way too big for the room. I have no idea what happened, the delivery men left, I sobbed, we tried a million ways to make the whole thing work and I "guess" it did for a while. But not really. So, we moved the set into the other living room and it does fit better but I will never be happy until it all hits the curb. One day. :)
$herdog, your ass looks fab in those jeans. :) And for the life of me I don't understand why that sweet seal "art" isn't displayed proudly in your home? You know you still have it in your closet. ;)
One thing that took me many mistakes to learn is : KEEP YOUR TAGS ON AND SAVE THE RECEIPT!!! I know it and yet time and again I come home, knowing I've found the perfect item, torn the tags off and tossed them and lost the receipt before I realize it's not the perfect item. Give it a couple of days to live with an item before you make a final decision. Also, we tend to buy big ticket items, like new furniture, from Costco. Their prices are very competitive and they take ANYTHING (except computers and TV's) back at any time, no explanations necessary. They have deals with their vendors that they can get their money back, so Costco is not hesitant to refund on unwanted items. Also, every item you buy from there is kept on computer file, so a lost receipt is not a deal-breaker as far as returns.
I agree. We just bought a giant sectional from Costco and I was less nervous since they're good with returns. It was so much less expensive than what I've seen at "real" furniture stores.
They only had 6 in the store though, so I felt a little rushed (2 back and forth trips in a snowstorm in one night) but it was worth it once we got it inside.
Sometimes I need to be rushed to just buy the dang thing. I tend to over think :)
I had that same seal poster too! And glancing through the comments, I apparently wasn't the only one. So strange!
Perfect post timing! I've been debating on whether or not to keep a rug of mine because it was a pretty big purchase but I'm not in love with it like I thought I'd be. Unfortunately, our Craigslist is a spam magnet and 8 out of 10 responses you get are fake so it's always a pain to try and list something on there. I'm going to try listing it again though!
What a liberating post! I completely agree with you all… Not only do I have to face my own guilt having a purchase that doesn't work for us, but my boyfriend isn't exactly a fan of spending more money on a piece we already have… You've confirmed my suspicions about our large white and glass coffee table. Lovely at first, but now we have a smaller place and a very big puppy! It's too big, dotted with black fur, streaked with finger prints, and offers no storage. Probably time to resell on Craigslist.
Sherry, this is so unrelated to this post and you probably already know this, but you are on the "Celebrity Fans" page on the Kendra Scott website! I was browsing it today and they have several pics of you. You look gorgeous!! :)
I definitely have to make my husband read this! Actually I really needed it to, so thank you. But he gets all weird about putting too many holes in the walls from moving stuff around and I don't know how to change his mind about it! So funny.
p.s. THOSE PANTS! Hahahaha. That was great.

35 year old woman | Hollywood, FL, USA | Seeking men 33-50 within 25 miles
Hello! My name is Sierra and I am trying Match one more time. Hopefully Florida men are different than Philly men- I have met some nice guys, but have also had a few that have been....scary! I'm just a normal, fun girl looking for the same in a guy. I just moved to Hollywood, FL from Pennsylvania. So over the cold weather! I am a fun, silly, kind, friendly, ambitious person looking to meet my best friend and share a happy life. I like to do pretty much anything and will try most things once....most things. Not sure if I can jump out of a plane yet or bungee jump. And although I am totally fine with tattoos on men, I came super close one time to getting one and chickened out. Since I'm 35 now, I doubt I'll ever get one now. I am a huge family person and love my friends just as much. Some of my friends have been in my life for all my life or half my life and are some of the best people I know. I don't currently have kids, but I have nieces and nephews who I adore and love to spend time with. I am that person that will trip and fall and laugh at myself. If you tripped and fell, I would do the same thing, but I'd be the first one to help you up. I would give you my last $5 because I always think someone needs it more than me. Lets just get some of my flaws out of the way because I'm definitely not perfect: I bite my nails, I need my coffee in the morning to function, and I kind of have a little tiny bit of road rage at times. I am divorced and am one of the lucky ones because we simply decided we grew apart. I am definitely ready to find that one person that adores me as much as I will adore him. Maybe we're a match, maybe we're not, but lets have fun finding out. I am looking for someone who is nice, fun, ambitious, funny and kind. Someone who likes to get out and do things but can also enjoy a night at home watching a movie and sharing the popcorn. I want someone who can treat me to dinner, but then lets me pay for the movie and then vise versa for the next date. It's 2015, I can buy you a meal! I like someone who will tip the waitress 20% and not pull out the tip calculator. Someone frugal, but not cheap. I just like to have fun, laugh, enjoy life and am up for anything. There's so much more to know of course, but if you're interested then let's see if we're a match. If you're not, then thanks for checking out my profile.
Coffee and conversation , Cooking , Dining out , Movies/Videos , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Nightclubs/Dancing , Playing cards , Travel/Sightseeing , Wine tasting

I have a dog who is the best. His name is Chase and he is 9.
I love to travel and see new places. I love the beach and am learning the area and what it has to offer. Maybe you can show me around? :) I enjoy my couch, too. I am up for anything!
I love love love movies! I like most music and I love to dance. I do have to admit....I am a reality tv show kind of girl, but please don't hold that against me!
I love movies, playing Poker, card games, board games, the beach. I like going to dive bars and playing pool, darts, and shuffleboard. I love going to sporting events and BBQ's. I can have fun in any situation....I promise!
I read a lot since I used to take the train to work, but I doubt any of you like Kristin Hannah's books. And yes, I was one of ten ladies that read the 50 Shades of Grey books. ;)

screw material compensates for wear to avoid lock-ups. Available in a range of
diameters and leads for applications requiring precise positioning, the nuts
provide long operational life and a system that augments system stiffness
while reducing drag torque. It can be used as a standalone product.

Distance Measurement
Tuesday, 01 August 2006
The Acam-Messelectronic TDC-GPX chip
from Transducers Direct (Miamiville, OH),
allows distance measuring of ±1 mm rms to a
range of 1,500 meters. The chip has four selectable
operating modes: I-mode provides eight
LVTTL input channels, a resolution of 81
picoseconds (ps), infinite measurement
range, and 5.5 nanosecond (ns) pulse-pair resolution.
G-mode has a 40-ps resolution, a
measurement range of 65 μsec, and a minimum
pulse-width measurement of 1.5 ns. In R
mode, the resolution is 27 ps, the measurement
range is 40 μsec, and the pulse-pair resolution
is 5.5 ns. In M-mode, the resolution is
10 ps rms with a peak-to-peak of 10 ps, and a
measurement range of 10 μsec. Power consumption
ranges from 39 to 45 mA.
Applications include navigation systems,
speed measurement devices, frequency
and phase measurement, and medical imaging
