paint colors for rustic modern remodel?
aaronpnelsonJanuary 26, 2013
we are struggling to find the right colors for our home we just purchased. we have some great features like a rustic stone 3-sided fireplace, dark slate and blonde oak floors, and thick rustic beams in living room. we normally like shades of white but feel the white will be too stark a contrast with these other elements and make them appear dirty. help! we would love specific colors of paint that we can go buy today and put samples up today. thanks so much!
I think a light gray might be a consideration for a color. I agree with you that the white might be too stark. Benjamin Moore's most popular neutral is Paul Revere gray. It's gray but has warm undertones so that's a color you might consider.
Cancork Floor Inc.
Your fireplace stone work can help guide you with your colour range. Find some colour swatches that you like and see if they "match up" with any of the stone in your fireplace. Pick a tone that is found in the fireplace and run with it! You have dozens of colours to choose from.
What is the decor/wall treatment on the window/door wall? Is it a textured wall paper, or a faux finish? I wonder if you could up date this wall, you would be a bit closer to the "modern" than the "rustic" side of your quest.

cancork- the wallcovering was a textured wallpaper and it has already been removed:) thanks for your suggestions
Sorry, just wanted to amend an earlier suggestion. The actual name of the Benjamin Moore paint is "Revere Pewter". I was checking back and don't know what I was thinking with the name since I do know it - all I can chalk it up to is have a bit of a cold - so obviously just not thinking straight! The other things ARE correct, it's the most popular BM gray with a warm tone. Like the other suggestions above as well. Best to you in your new home and sorry for the mix up!
Pale oak is also a Benjamin Moore decorator choice color and might be nice with fireplace/floor...Revere Pewter might also work, but both are cooler tones. My all time favorite is Pratt & Lambert Moth Gray, not a gray though, just a light warm taupe.

I am having the same issue. I just moved into an open modern rustic home after 20 years in an old colonial with 7' ceilings! I LOVE revere pewter and can tell you I spent 3 months finding the perfect color. BUT, it looks dark and green in my new home. I'm stuck as well!

Echo Chamber: Vampire Weekend's Ezra Koenig
By Tom Breihan on April 30, 2010 at 4:00 p.m. EDT
"off-shore drilling seems like the 'shooting-up between ur toes' phase of oil addiction. and the Gulf spill might be the 'stealing ur mama's sofa' phase. or selling - either way."
-- Vampire Weekend's Ezra Koenig, extending an analogy about as far as it can go. (via three successive tweets on @arzE)

When Vampire Weekend multi-instrumentalist-producer Rostam Batmanglij isn't making music with his chart-topping band (or his R&B side project Discovery) he's doing creative things under the moniker Boys Like Us.
He's already redone a track by L.A. sunshine-pop band Foreign Born as Boys Like Us and next up is a remix of Jack Johnson's "You and Your Heart", which is from the surfer dude's upcoming LP To the Sea. The remix is out in the U.S. digitally and as a 7" single June 1.

Video: Vampire Weekend Do "Fallon"
By Tom Breihan on March 15, 2010 at 12:40 p.m. EDT
One interesting thing about Vampire Weekend's recent run of TV appearances: Drummer Chris Tomson gets further and further away from the band's buttoned-up dress code every time he's on camera. When the band dropped by "Late Night With Jimmy Fallon" on Friday, he was rocking a Nets jersey and a gigantic wolfman beard, and he put on a beanie halfway through the song. If the rest of the band isn't careful, he'll be shirtless in sweatpants on "Lopez Tonight" within a month.
Doesn't matter, really. The band has reached the level where they can blow through album deep cuts on late-night shows and everyone's still excited to see them. On "Fallon", they played the ska-pop ditty "Holiday", not a single or even really a highlight on Contra, and their charisma still went for miles.
Watch the video below, via Prefix.

Last night, followers were treated to a video of ?uestlove, backstage at "Late Night With Jimmy Fallon" (where the Roots are the house band), announcing the lineup for the Roots Picnic, the festival the band has put on in its hometown of Philadelphia three years in a row.
Vampire Weekend to Perform on "Saturday Night Live" Again

On March 6, Vampire Weekend will make their second appearance on "Saturday Night Live". The host is Zach Galifianakis, who's making his "SNL" debut. Safe to say: This episode could very well be a season high, so set the DVR now. If it's half as entertaining as VW's "Giving Up the Gun" video, we'll be in decent shape.
For the record, I will not be happy unless Ezra gets his Digital Short on.

Having never even heard of the comic book prior to the announcement of the film, I enjoyed the hell out of it. It had great action set pieces, funny scenes, and great characters. Chris Pratt was hilarious, while not being a cartoon, and I loved Groot. All in all, I can't wait to see it again.
As an aside, the preview for "Dumb and Dumber To" that showed before Guardians cracked my shit up. I feel dirty.

With thirty or so shops worldwide, chocolate maker Pierre Marcolini has now opened a shop on the Boulevard des Moulins in Monaco
When it comes to chocolate, Pierre Marcolini – an internationally renowned chocolatier and world champion pastry chef – is totally committed.
He travels all around the world in search of the highest quality chocolate (the most sought-after "crus") and the best cocoa beans, meeting the farmers in person and always offering them a price that is higher than the market price, to "make the market more secure."
He is one of the few chocolatiers who roast their own cocoa beans. With an emphasis on quality and excellence, he and his artisan chocolate makers are present at all stages of the transformation from cocoa bean to "haute couture" chocolates.
Individual chocolates, squares (Pierre Marcolini's bars aren't rectangular) and macaroons – his creations are avant garde, exquisite and refined.

The 4 Most Amusing Responses to Frank Gehry's UTS Business School
Last week, Frank Gehry inaugurated his first building in Australia, with the formal opening of the Dr Chau Chak Wing Building at the University of Technology in Sydney (UTS). As his first in the country, the building therefore offers an opportunity for a whole new corner of the world to weigh in with their opinions on the polarizing style of the world's foremost love-him-or-hate-him architect.
The resulting media flurry has provided a number of entertaining responses, both positive and negative. After the break, we round up some of the most amusing.

Videos: The Best Architectural Firework Displays of New Year 2015
As any self-respecting world city now knows, when the time comes to change the calenders, you'd better also have an iconic building from which to hang some fireworks. With people all over the world looking out for the most impressive New Year's celebrations, we've picked the most impressive architecturally-focused displays. Not surprisingly, Dubai - the world capital of "go big or go home" – probably had the most impressive show of the year, with a combined light-and-firework show to turn the Burj Khalifa into the world's largest celebratory canvas. However, a special mention goes to Paris' Arc de Triomphe, where a tasteful 14-minute light mapping display paid homage to the city's other great architectural works, from the Eiffel Tower to the Centre Pompidou, before moving onto stylized scenes of Paris life to bring in the new year.

The 9 Most Controversial Buildings of All Time
It is now just over a year since the unveiling of Zaha Hadid's Al-Wakrah Stadium in Doha, Qatar, and in the intervening twelve months, it seems like the building has never been out of the news. Most recently, remarks made by Hadid concerning the deaths of construction workers under Qatar's questionable working conditions created a media firestorm of legal proportions. Hadid's stadium has been widely mocked for its 'biological' appearance, not to mention the fact that the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, for which the stadium will be built, has encountered a storm of controversy all of its own.
The criticism surrounding Al Wakrah has prompted us to look far and wide for the world's most debated buildings. Could Al Wakrah be the most controversial building of all time? Check out ArchDaily's roundup of nine contenders after the break.

A Better Way for Sydney than the Bilbao Effect
In Sydney, a recent discussion about "Cultural Precinct Planning" hosted by the City Government has raised important questions about how the city can compete in the global cultural arms race. However, Sara Anne Best thinks it raised all the wrong questions. Originally posted on Australian Design Review as "Cultural Ribbon or Coastal Connections" this article argues that Sydney, with a culture and tourism industry so focused on outdoor leisure, could find a more unique way of attracting attention which includes the wider metropolitan area more than the usual city centre cultural hub, asking: "With three of the city's iconic beaches currently undergoing renewal, what is the role of the seaside CBD in the context of Sydney's cultural identity?" Find out the answer after the break.
3XN Wins Commission to Design 200-Meter Tower in Sydney
3XN has won an international competition to design the "50 Bridge Street" tower and masterplan for the Quay Quarter Sydney (QQS) precinct. Just west of Jørn Utzon's Opera House, the new tower will feature five rotating glass volumes, each equipped with a multi-level atria and views of the Sydney harbour.
"This project looks at the 'high rise' in an entirely new way, from both the inside out and outside in," said Kim Herforth Nielsen, founding partner and creative director of 3XN. "Its dynamic, shifted massing maximizes views for all of the building's users while also creating expansive open spaces that encourage the possibility for interaction, knowledge sharing and vertical connectivity."

Master-Tape Equalization Revisited
Optimum signal minus noise level of a commercial tape or disc record requires the signal- and noise-spectra of the studio master tape to be matched to those of the commercial record. The use of the NAB 380 mm/s (15 in/s) equalization (3150 Hz transition frequency) with modern tapes results in frequency- and noise-spectra which have much higher levels at higher frequencies than the final records. Other practical equalizations are studied, and a 12,500 Hz reproducing transition frequency is suggested for further evaluation.

Against my better judgement, the lights in my apartment are connected to a wireless network controlled via an app. There are physical buttons, but they are located near the plugs, at ground level and often behind obstructions. When I leave, turning off the light requires digging my phone out of my pocket, typing in the unlock code, opening the app, waiting for it to detect the network, then tapping a button to turn off the light. I do all of this while standing an inch or so away from the old wall switch, the use of which would achieve the same result in a fraction of the time. As a result of this modernity, every time I leave the apartment, I feel the uncontrollable urge to make sure I'm listening to the title theme from French director Jacques Tati's 1958 masterpiece Mon Oncle. I am, at that moment, Monsieur Hulot. Continue reading…

Later is when we have less time
Impatience is a trait that can be irritating, both in other people and oneself, and often results in disaster. In one of my previous articles, Don't Be That Guy, I used the term "incapacitatingly impatient" to describe all the crazy things people do because they can't bring themselves to wait long enough to make a choice that's reasonable or considerate. One of the commenters aptly called it out as "the disease of our age." Comics editor Carol Borden's theory about teleportation is that if we were able to teleport places in 10 seconds but it took 20 seconds instead, we'd be tapping our feet impatiently wondering why it was taking so long.
In healthy doses, though, impatience helps get things done. It's also damn appealing in a historical heroine. Continue reading…

Essential Crew
This month's Guest Star is the excellent Kaitlin Tremblay. Content Warning: self-harm, emotional abuse
My roommate and I are obnoxious in the way that only best friends who live together can be. We have more inside jokes than books we've read (and as two girls who work in publishing and with five degrees in subjects focused on books between us, that says a lot). I like to think it's endearing. We have a house rule for our apartment: we are delightful. (And we are, I promise.)
One of our most enduring inside jokes, though, is Laughing Hour. Laughing Hour came from Star Trek: The Next Generation, when Alexander, Worf's son, takes lessons on how to laugh. The episode is riddled with bursts of "HA!" from Alexander at the most importune times, and in true 90s comedy fashion, to the utmost annoyance of his very serious and very noble father. It is delightful. Continue reading…

Mucking Up The Respectable Comics Business
I've been thinking about disreputable art more than usual lately, between the film adaptation of 50 Shades of Grey coming out and Jonathan Franzen franzenating about women mucking up the whole respectable novel business. I can't help but think of the history of the novel in Europe and North America. A tawdry form that was consumed by women, often written pseudonynmously by women and wholly damaging to one's character, virtue and imagination. Art that makes us unsafe and disreputable has been around for a long time. Plato had concerns about the Mixolydian Mode's effect on impressionable youths. And it's made me think about my own reading that might be considered disreputable in the comics' world. Sometimes it's good to get back to our roots here at the Gutter. Continue reading…

At Boing Boing, Gita Jackson writes about gaming, art, minority voices, colonialism and Benedict Anderson's "imagined communities": "When marginalized voices come to take their seat at the table, there will always be an outcry that they are invaders, colonists, inferior versions of their straight, white male counterparts. But rather than killing artforms, the addition of marginalized voices often helps ensure that they stay alive."

"Commercial cinema has predictably chosen not to bite the hand that feeds it, so it's simultaneously inspiring and also kind of embarrassing to see a movie like Seijun Suzuki's Story of Sorrow and Sadness. Rarely has a mainstream commercial release been as rabid in its attack, and as thoughtful in its critique, of our dystopian mediascape. And it should embarrass current commercial filmmakers that one of the few movies to have something intelligent to say about today's mediascape was made almost 40 years ago. By a 54 year old director. About golf." More at Kaiju Shakedown.

For years, like other film critics, I cast aspersions on your acting talent, belittled your intellect, and cracked jokes about your name, which means 'cool breeze over the mountains' in Hawaiian. Only now do I realise I was foolish and misguided. That YouTube video of you giving up your seat on the New York City metro is only the latest evidence that, onscreen and off, you are awesome."

i'm not really sure we are on the same page.
first, i know you dont get mission xp for killing individual mission mobs (although you do get a miniscule amount of skill points). what matters is passing each element in order to complete the mission. so if i kill 8 out of 9 gorn ships... and i get disconnected... when I log back in, there are times when i find myself outside of the system i was in, have to re-enter the mission instance, and start all over again. The OP is saying, that in WoW, if you kill 8 out of 9 rats... if you logged out and came back later, your progression will still be 8 out of 9 rats. Kill one more, then your done and get the mission reward! Sto however, you have to do it all over again. Not ideal.

THUS: induration > 5mm is considered + HIV Positive Patient. What do you do? Ordinarily: INH daily for 12 months Some recommend INH for life since eventual failure of the immune system will allow infection to progress to active disease If drug-resistant strain start on two drug regimen – INH and EMB or INH and cipro for preventive therapy If an HIV-infected patient develops drug-resistant TB the chances of dying from the disease are between 72-89%, even with aggressive therapy!!

Consumers can block retargeted ads from specific campaigns.
For customers who no longer want to see a certain display ad, [x] marks the spot. Google has announced a new icon, known as "mute this ad", for many ads appearing on the Google Display Network.
To "mute" an ad, users click on a small [x] located in the top right corner. A click on the [x] prompts an "Ad Muted" confirmation, meaning the user will no longer be served ads by Google from that particular campaign.
For advertisers, it doesn't seem like Google has any plans to share the number of times ads have been muted.
Google is first rolling this out with their remarketing ads, which is good news for users who find those ads a little creepy. Google is hoping that the feedback conducted from the initial program will help improve the relevance of ads seen over time.
This article was originally published on Search Engine Watch.

|Definitely gonna pre-order Fire Emblem from Play-Asia now that I know it's a definite release. Ni no Kuni and the Hundred Knights game have already been pre-ordered.

Next year looks pretty good for JRPGs
Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory
Atelier Ayesha
Ni no Kuni
Tales of Xillia
Fire Emblem Awakening
Toki to Towa
Fate/Extra CCC
Disgaea Dimensions 2
Final Fantasy 13: Lightning Returns
Witch and the Hundred Knights
(probably some more I'm missing too)
I only really play JRPGs these days, but all of these games should keep me busy for the full year.

That is, assuming that CCC and Ayesha get localized. CCC Won't be out in Japan until next year, and hopefully Aksys is still willing to do PSP games after the other Hakuouki. Also, no one knows what will happen with Ayesha, because of its rights. NISA may not get permission by Tecmo-Koei, and they may not want to localize it as well. Also, I doubt Lightning Returns will be out in North America until at least 2014... Same for Disgaea.

Nisa already announced they are localizing Ayesha.
And even if there are snags, I can always import the Europe version: http://www.siliconera.com/2012/10/17/atelier-ayesha-headed-to-europe-in-q1-2013/
I have no concerns over being able to play Ayesha next year.
And for Disgaea, Disgaea 4 came out 6 months after it did in Japan, so that would put DD2 in 2013 if they do the same schedule. FF13 Lightning Returns may not make it, though.

As always RPGs are the best genre ever (intentional hyperbole, lay off).
Ni no Kuni:
Please, people want to play it because it isn't Final Fantasy, Mass Effect or Dragon Age. People want something new and original for a change.
Tales of Xillia
Todd, are you ever going to stop summarizing Tales games like this? Way too much overgeneralizing. :l
Most people, including those who imported it before, will get Xillia 1 (despite the numerous complaints they had about it) just so we can figure out the story in English and also get Xillia 2 localized. Xillia 2 has already been hailed as the best Tales game to date and I have to agree. Xillia 1 can be considered a stepping stone to what made the sequel so good, and just from what I've seen of trailers and gameplay videos by friends, the facts speak for themselves.
NIS America: Generation of Chaos VI and Atelier Ayesha (when it will be fully localized) are both definite purchases.

I admit I can not see how Ni no Kuni would appeal to the average Mass Effect or Dragon Age fan. I imagine this and Final Fantasy have a lot of crossover appeal, however. It seems American gamers dislike anything anime-looking and not a shooter. Even these few games that good reviews are met with backhanded compliments such as "despite being a JRPG" or "despite using an unappealing anime style". It's a saddened thing if art styles like Mass Effect or Dragon Age are considered a more beautiful style than Studio Ghibli to the American public.

...is this a spoiler? I haven't followed details surrounding Awakening that closely outside of trailers, but none of the character descriptions I've seen said anything like this. I doubt this is something they'd reveal pre-release.

It is rather annoying. One of the most notable aspects of Tales stories is they begin cliched and then as it goes on begins subverting and/or deconstructing most of those cliches. Tales of the Abyss in particular ripped the concept of prophecies and destiny into shreds. The only one that IMHO began cliched and stayed cliched is Graces F and I will admit it was the weakest of the Tales stories of the ones I've played so far.
So yeah, simply saying Tales has cliches is misleading. It would be like me saying Watchmen has superheroes and that's it, or Evangelion has mecha and that's it.

Later, in August, it came out that this was a misunderstanding, and they hadn't actually decided whether NISA or Tecmo Koei themselves would be publishing Ayesha. See
I suppose it is also possible that NISA could be doing translations, and/or dubs, for this, without being the publisher per se.
But somebody should be doing a NA release.

Posts: 2183
For what it's worth, Graces f was intended to be that way, like a calling card of the simpler style of RPG plots we grew up with. But you're right. Recent Tales games try to avoid mucking around in cliches for too long and I would like to attest to that since the PS2 days of Abyss.
Tales deconstructing, tell me about it. I mean, has anyone seen Tales of Xillia 2? That game just completely erased any original preconceptions you might have about a Tales game being a cliched typical RPG. Plus, just for fun, it's awesome to see Tales characters whipping out cellphones and taking calls before a major story scene unrolls.

|Tales games would probably draw more attention if they included some kind of extra VS mode. It could include the main cast and also let you play as bosses that have hi-ougis (unlocked as you progress through the story, and toned down for some balance).
|Back to top
Posts: 2183
Well you see, they already did something like that. It's called Tales of VS, and from my understanding it wasn't well received in Japan. It looked very much like Tales had gone Smash Bros, but it played very unwieldy and it was essentially a grade-grinding fest to unlock all of each character's moves (again, it's only what I've heard). It was generally unpopular and even importers detested it. Turns out the Mugen Tales fighters I've seen floating around on YouTube are what people want if you're going to combine Tales with fighter elements.

Needing to force in multiplayer modes in every game is one of the worst things about recent gaming. I miss the days when single player games focused on making the best single player game they could instead of feeling the need to add in unnecessary multiplayer modes.

"Wall Street Socialists"
The financial crisis gripping the U.S. has the largest banks and insurance companies begging for massive government bailouts. The banking, investment, finance and insurance industries, long the foes of taxation, now need money from working-class taxpayers to stay alive. Taxpayers should be in the driver's seat now. Instead, decisions that will cost people for decades are being made behind closed doors, by the wealthy, by the regulators and by those they have failed to regulate.

Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Ron Suskind may have provided the evidence she doesn't want to see.
"Don't Cage Dissent"
Open opposition, the right to challenge those in power, is a mainstay of any healthy democracy. The Democratic and Republican conventions will test the commitment of the two dominant U.S. political parties to the cherished tradition of dissent. Things are not looking good.
Lawmaker Calls on Pentagon to Explain Promotion of Threat-Wielding Recruiter After Democracy Now! Broadcast
Rep.

Latest Exotic matter Reference Libraries
WIMP -- In astronomy, WIMPs, or weakly interacting massive particles, figure into one explanation of the dark matter problem. The particles are called "weakly interacting" because they seem not to have much interaction with normal matter (electrons, protons, and neutrons) other than gravitational attraction (thus "massive"). Assuming that there are Weakly Interacting Massive Particles, these particles would then fall out of equilibrium with the universe when they are non-relativistic....
White Dwarf -- A white dwarf is a a star supported by electron degeneracy. A star like our Sun will become a white dwarf when it has exhausted its nuclear fuel. Near the end of its nuclear burning stage, such a star goes through a red giant phase and then expels most of its outer material (creating a planetary nebula) until only the hot (T > 100,000 K) core remains, which then settles down to become a young white dwarf. A typical white dwarf is half as massive as the Sun, yet only...
Supernova -- A supernova is a star that increases its brightness drastically within a matter of days, making it appear as if a "new" star was born (hence "nova"). The "super" prefix distinguishes it from a mere nova, which also involves a star increasing in brightness, though to a lesser extent and through a much different mechanism. Astronomers have classified supernovae in several classes, according to the lines of different elements that appear in their spectra. The first element...
Strange Matter -- Strange matter (also known as quark matter) is an ultra-dense phase of matter that is theorized to form inside particularly massive neutron stars (which are then known as "strange stars" or "quark stars"). It's theorized that when neutronium is put under sufficient pressure due to the gravitation of a large neutron star, the individual neutrons break down and their constituent quarks form strange matter. Strange matter is composed of strange quarks bound to each...
Massive Compact Halo Object (MACHO) -- Massive compact halo objects, or MACHOs, are a type of astronomical body proposed as one possible explanation for the presence of dark matter in galactic halos. A MACHO is a small chunk of normal baryonic matter, far smaller than a star, which drifts through interstellar space unassociated with any solar system. Since MACHOs would not emit any light of their own, they would be very hard to detect. Recent work has suggested that MACHOs are not...
