Is there something that will help shrink or get rid of fibroids? Fibroids are non-cancerous tumours or growths of the uterus. They are very common – about half of women have fibroids, and in many cases they go undetected until they grow large enough that they cause symptoms such as urinary frequency, pelvic pain or heavy bleeding during menstruation. Fibroids usually grow slowly and in most cases treatment is not necessary. Fibroid growth is stimulated by estrogen, so they...Read More
Is there any way to regulate my thyroid without medication if I have hypothyroidism?
It depends on your individual situation and the severity of your hypothyroidism. The majority of people with hypothyroidism have Hashimoto's disease, which is an autoimmune condition that causes destruction of the thyroid gland over time. As this destruction progresses, the thyroid gland becomes less and less able to produce enough hormones to meet metabolic needs. This is reflected in an increase in thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH). The thyroid gland produces two...Read More
Trouble Sleeping Can Have Many Causes
I have had trouble sleeping well for the longest while. What can I do? It is important to figure out what is causing your trouble sleeping. Many factors can affect quality sleep such as stress, diet, activity level, use of medication (antidepressants, blood pressure pills and many other drugs) and hormonal imbalances. Here are some general tips for getting a good night sleep: Set aside at least 7 to 8 hours for sleep. Leaving only 5 or 6 hours may make you feel stressed and...Read More
Can green tea or soy reduce risk of breast cancer?
What about the estrogen in green tea and soy for increasing breast lumps? My GP has told me not to drink green tea. Green tea does not contain any estrogen. In fact, some research has suggested that it may actually help in estrogen metabolism and reduce reduce risk of breast cancer. Soy contains isoflavones which are known as phytoestrogens because they can bind to estrogen receptors and exert weak estrogenic effects. Soy foods have been shown in studies to offer many...Read More
Vitamins and Supplements for Women
How long does it take for vitamins and supplements for women to start working or be effective? It really depends on what supplement you are taking, the dosage, and your system (how your body processes the supplement). With certain supplements, such as multivitamins or fish oil, you may not necessarily feel any different, however taking these products helps correct deficiencies, ensures that your nutritional needs are met and may help to protect against certain chronic...Read More

Anyone tried cuttings of Virginia Creeper?
I'm brand new to propagating from anything but seed. I want to fill my yard with Virginia Creeper and I have a friend who has oodles of it growing on her deck. In the past I've tried transplanting with poor results, even with a decent size root ball. I've searched Gardenweb and other sites and found conflicting recommendations about the best timing for taking softwood cuttings. I've had decent results starting from seed, but I can't ever find enough seeds left on the vines to get the numbers of plants I want. Has anyone here taken cuttings from Virginia Creeper, and what was your experience? Thanks in advance. Oh, and can you root cuttings directly in a soil substitute, or should it always be sand?
Hi Docmom, I have rooted virginia creeper by taking cuttings in the winter and sticking them in potting soil in water bottles in a south window with 100% success. I have rooted them in summer by sticking them in a bottle of water until roots start to grow. I have also started them by sticking the cuttings in the ground and keeping the ground wet in the summer. They are easiest to propagate by ground layering using the mother plant to do the work. My problem has been getting them to survive long-term. It seems to be slow to adapt and rarely survives the winters here. It may not like alkaline soil. I finally got one to live through the winter this year and it had been potted for quite a while before planted in the ground. If you find out more let me know. Good luck
Thank-you for the responses.
Generator, The plants I've had volunteer have always been extremely hardy. They grow in both sunny and shady spots with no attention at all. I think the root system goes quite deep when they develop naturally, so that would enable them to survive the cold winter. I"ll take some cuttings ASAP and see if I can get them to root quickly so they can establish themselves before the cold hits. Do you put rooting hormone in the bottle of water? How much? Thanks again,
Hi docmom, I have never had to use rooting hormone on the virginia creeper. I don't think cold is the real issue because I have relatives in Minnesota z3 that grow them and they do just fine, in fact they leaf out sooner than here. It may be the altitude here. I see it growing around this area but it never seems to be overly vigorous. I just keep trying and maybe one day I'll have a creeper get established.

H&Q Technology Conference Special Issue NEW YORK, May 11 /PRNewswire/ -- Eighteen leading analysts and top management from one hundred and ten sector firms examine the Technology sector in this special 428-page CHASE H&Q 28th Annual Technology Conference Issue from The Wall Street Transcript (212-952-7433) or http://www.twst.com/info/info96.htm In a vital review of this evolving sector for investors and industry professionals, this valuable 428-page CHASE H&Q Technology Conference issue features: 1) Fifteen extensive (average 2,500 words) Interviews with top management discussing the outlook for their firm and the sector. CEO William Cadogan of ADC Telecommunications (Nasdaq: ADCT) declares, "ADC is making broadband, multiservice communications happen today. We have a well-founded strategy that is the right course for current and future growth. Service providers of every type are now aggressively pushing forward on their broadband communications initiatives. ADC over the past three to five years has been developing products and acquiring companies with new skills and capabilities in preparation for this opportunity. Now that the opportunity has arrived, we are capable of taking advantage of it." Dr. John Warnock, CEO of Adobe Systems (Nasdaq: ADBE), states, "I think Adobe is the only company in our space that really offers a broad solution across all of the media types. And because of that and the convergence of the media, we really are the only company that can bring imaging, illustration, print publishing, Web publishing, video publishing together into a unified set of solutions." Peter van Oppen, CEO of Advanced Digital Information Corporation (Nasdaq: ADIC) comments, "We want to add various kinds of technology to continue to broaden our product offering. We want to be one of the first one or two names that come to mind when good customers of ours, people like Excite or Cisco or Broadcast.com or Yahoo -- those sorts of folks think about storage requirements. We're in the first group of one or two companies that they think about. That requires both performance and scale." CEO of Advanced Fibre Communications (Nasdaq: AFCI), John Schofield states: "Right now our primary competitive advantage is that we are the only vendor of digital loop carrier product that has integrated the broadband into the platform. So our product can provide services from narrow voice-type services all the way to high-speed digital subscriber line services and none of our competitors actually have that on a single platform. Bryan Stolle, CEO of Agile (Nasdaq: AGIL), intends, "To continue to focus on all these new business processes that have been created between companies, related to getting their products built and delivered to the customer, and continue to build out our portfolio of solutions in that area, whether it's build them, or buy them like we just recently did with the acquisition of Digital Market. To drive that and be the preferred supplier for the solutions that enterprises use to connect to their production supply chain." Lee Hamilton, CEO of AirNet Communications Corporation (Nasdaq: ANCC), declares: "We offer a future-proof, lower cost of ownership base station solution. It's software upgradeable to the wireless Internet, and the backhaul cost savings or operating cost savings of the AirSite Backhaul Free Base Station are very significant. The value proposition is clearly compelling." CEO Ken Bajaj of AppNet (Nasdaq: APNT) comments on his company: "Opportunities for us include what we call the mega programs in the e-business space. These mega programs are of a much larger scope and complexity than the e-business initiatives to date. These include implementing B2B e-marketplaces that will require not only the construction of the e-marketplace itself, but the integration of the hundreds of corporations that will buy and sell through the e-marketplaces. The other area is outsourcing. Outsourcing is a huge opportunity for AppNet." Kevin Kerns, CEO of Apropos (Nasdaq: APRS), states, "We believe that we can become the clear multi-media standard for eBusiness. There is a great fracturing in this space, a lot of companies that own small pieces of the market. And we believe that with our architecture and with our customer base and momentum that we have established, we have the ability to really become the standard for the emerging e-business segment." Robert Wrubel, CEO of Ask Jeeves (Nasdaq: ASKJ), notes, "What sets us apart, [is] the most sophisticated and intuitive interaction software technologies; tremendous data about what people ask, how they ask it and what they are looking for; and finally, a distribution system that can reach about 65% of the Internet." Beatriz Infante, CEO of Aspect Communication (Nasdaq: ASPT), declares: "We provide the development tools, the deployment platform, and the applications that enable companies to take eCRM and e-commerce and turn that together into e-business, because companies today really want to be able to flip between a service and a cell mode." CEO Dr. Allen Barnett of AstroPower (Nasdaq: APWR) explains: "Solar electric power products are unique in that this technology is the best way to generate electricity at the point of use. New energy technologies are receiving a lot of investor attention as people look for alternatives to coal and nuclear generation. Our technology is unique in that it generates electricity at the point-of-use. It is highly reliable." Donald Colvin, CFO of Atmel Corporation (Nasdaq: ATML), asserts, "The whole wireless revolution that's underway has people throwing away their fixed communication handsets and going toward wireless applications. There are new features coming onstream where you have Internet access through wireless, etc. So I think this is a remarkable opportunity for companies like Atmel: the strong world economy coupled with the very, very strong growth rate in a sector where we have most of our sales." Dean DeBiase, CEO of Autoweb.com (Nasdaq: AWEB), explains, "We've focused on continuing to become the dominant online consumer brand. We are already a major force in the next generation of automotive buying and we plan to continue to capture a growing share of revenues from consumers, portals, dealers, manufacturers, as well as our infrastructure partners. Autoweb has a great opportunity to be the unbiased intermediary and help the auto manufacturers build their brands on our services." Kamal Duggirala, CEO of BARRA (Nasdaq: BARZ), points out: "We were the first to create this risk management technology. We started 25 years ago, and it has been a gradual process of educating investment professionals on the use of this technology. In the last decade we've seen substantial acceptance, and the notion that this is standard practice for institutional investing. We are considered the provider of choice because we are certainly the best and premium provider in terms of quality, and we are the largest amongst the competitors." CEO of Be Free, Inc. (Nasdaq: BFRE), Gordon Hoffstein, notes: "We are the number one company in our space, the undisputed leader. We want to stay number one and we want to actually increase the distance between us and our competitors. We want to do that by continuing to hire the right people and have the right technologies and making these customers successful. That's how we measure our success."

'Suicide Squad' Will Base the Joker on Frank Miller's 'The Dark Knight Returns'Britt Hayes March 13, 2015 @ 10:24 AM
We've been hearing some interesting Suicide Squad rumors this week, but the latest report might be the most interesting yet. Not only does it shed some light on the way David Ayer is approaching Jared Leto's version of the Joker, but it gives us some clues about how Ben Affleck's Batman might make an appearance in the film. Best of all, Ayer is relying on some great source material for the Joker: Frank Miller's classic graphic novel 'The Dark Knight Returns.'

Hello everyone. I am constructing a heat/ wind shield for my banjo burners and would like some input on the thickness of the steel. Does anyone know what a decent thickness would be that would be durable to the heat and still easy enough to bend into a circle. I will be ordering strips from McMaster Carrer and turning them into a circle and secured by screws or bolts. Thanks.
I bought a roll of 12" flashing from Home Schlepo. I made a pattern from cardboard, traced it out on the flashing and cut it out. I used rivets to hold it in the circle. I cut several out because I didn't know how well it would hold up. It's very thin, but has held up for many batches. - Dwain
A recent article in one of the brewing mags showed someone who used a galvanized tub as a wind/dog shield. They cut a small area out to allow for lighting and the hose I think. Looked like there was about 4-6 inches distance between the tub and the burner.
Maybe a bit more $$ than flashing, but it would also double as a boilover collector.
I am working on these using the suggested 16 ga. carbon sheet metal.http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f51/weld...49/index3.html
Thanks everyone.
Can you tell me where you bought your steel? I am looking at McMaster Carr and they don't list their steel by gauge. I am not much of a metallurgist as you can tell so I am hoping you can help me translate what I need from their site: http://www.mcmaster.com/#steel/=agzi59
Actually nevermind. I found this helpful gauge conversion online:http://www.onlineconversion.com/gauge_sheet_metal.htm
Thanks so much everyone.
Try a scrap yard first. Stainless sheet for less than retail carbon steel.
Welcome to BrewHardware.com. I love you.New 100% Stainless Steel Heating Elements are IN! ULWD 5500w Ripple, 2000w, 1500w, etcChugger Pumps, Pump Kits, Camlocks, Sightglasses, Clear USA made Silicone Tubing, RIMS, Electric Install Parts, etc.
I'm about to upgrade my brew kettle burner to a Banjo and I'd like to use a similar setup. I hear the Banjo is a beast. I don't have access to a welder anymore so I'd like to use the heat shield to help serve as a structure for mounting the burner...4 holes in the shield to mount to the burner tabs and the shield held to my Brutus stand with 4 brackets, screwed into the frame and the shield. Is aluminum strong enough?
Without knowing exactly what you're working on (in terms of burner setup) it's hard to say, but I can tell you that I used 22ga steel for my project and it holds up just fine. Aluminum flashing used in this way would wilt away almost as soon as you turn on the burner.
Here's a link to my thread
Really makes a huge difference in both the opportunity for the flame to blow out and actually in efficiency as the heat is prevented from just going around the kettle right away.
This is what I use. It's already assembled, cheap, portable and works really well.

Strawberries for Knoxville
Hello all,
I am very new to gardening in Eastern Tennessee and am wanting to plant strawberries for ground cover in a big bed in my front garden. Thanks to one of your TN posters I found a long list of fruit suppliers which mentioned Krohne plant farms as an excellent supplier of strawberry plants. I found another post mentioning the benefit of surecrop, and Krohne do have them. However they also have the following offer:
Are these varieties any good for my location? The varieties are Albion. Jewel, Earlyglow and Seascape.
Thanks for any replies!
Here is a link that might be useful: Krohne's all season strawberry offer
Possible sources of info:
Your local agricultural extension office: Select your county here. (You may also want to ask them if they can put you in contact with a specialist that deals in this type of fruit - and, yes, there is one.)
Local growers: Choose your region for a local list. (You may find that expertise varies greatly, but some of these farmers may really know their stuff.)
Websites of other strawberry suppliers: This may be the list you mentioned. (Hartmann's Plant Company, Indiana Berry & Plant Co., Nourse Farms Inc., Sakuma Bros. Farms, and Simmons Plant Farm all have info on the strawberry cultivars they offer. Do keep in mind that they are trying to sell their stuff though.)
GW's Fruit and Orchards Forum: You can also try the search function. (The advise here probably won't be local and may not be professional, but it might be useful.)
I've recently moved from MI to TN, and I've grown Earliglow in MI. They were spectacular June bearing plants, and produced the best crop of 7 varieties I've tried, including Mara DeBois. Mara DeBois had nice fragrant flavors, but it was everbearing and didn't produce heavy sweet crops like Earliglow did. I've tasted Jewel from a farmer's market, and it was ok, but it couldn't beat Earliglow especially when they were vine ripened in your own garden.

Rockefeller asks Obama to speed up crude oil tank car upgrades
Sen. Jay Rockefeller, D-W.Va., asked President Barack Obama on Monday to use his executive power to make immediate improvements to the safety of tank cars carrying crude oil.
In a letter to the president, Rockefeller said the federal government has been "slow to react" to gaps in safety standards following a series of fiery derailments in the past year.
"Mr. President, we cannot wait for another devastating derailment and explosion to happen here that will force us into action," he wrote Obama. "The time to act is now."
A year ago Sunday, a trainload of crude oil from North Dakota derailed and ignited in Lac-Megantic, Quebec, killing 47 people and destroying the center of the small lakeside town.
Subsequent derailments across North America, though none fatal, revealed gaps in rail safety and emergency response, and highlighted the vulnerability of the tank cars used to transport the oil.
Rockefeller's letter tapped into the frustration of many state and local officials and members of Congress over the pace with which the U.S. Department of Transportation has responded.
Rockefeller, the chairman of the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation, held a hearing in March in which officials from DOT and the rail and petroleum industries testified.
The White House Office of Management and Budget is currently reviewing a set of new regulations for tank car design and rail operations, but it could be months before the rules are in place.
Meanwhile, domestic oil production continues to increase. The country produced 8.4 million barrels a day in April, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration.
Just two states, Texas and North Dakota, account for half that amount, largely thanks to hydraulic fracturing of shale rock. Much of the oil has been moving by rail to destinations not reached directly by pipelines.
But it's been moving in a fleet of minimally reinforced tank cars with a long record of failure in derailments involving a range of flammable and hazardous materials. The problems took on a new dimension a decade ago when railroads began moving large quantities of ethanol, prompting the rail industry to petition DOT for better tank cars.
The industry voluntarily adopted its own more stringent design in 2011, but those cars have also proved inadequate. One such car ruptured in an April 30 derailment in Lynchburg, Va., spilling about 30,000 gallons of Bakken crude into the James River.
Though Rockefeller acknowledged that DOT had taken several steps, working with the railroad industry and petroleum producers, to improve the safety of crude oil shipments, he pressed the president for "significant" regulatory changes and improved oversight.
"The safety and well-being of the public depends on it," Rockefeller wrote.

I need help with my Meyer Lemon tree!
My Meyer Lemon tree has been struggling lately, and I don't know what the problem is. Please help!
Just a little background on my tree:
I've had it for less than a year; I got it back in September from a nursery. It was doing fine for a few months and had many flower buds on it. Within the last month or two, it started to look really sickly. On closer inspection, I noticed it had a spider mite problem. After doing some browsing and searching online, I went to the store and bought some Insecticidal Soap. I had read on other sites and forums to treat it approximately every 7-9 days for a few weeks to kill the adult spider mites and also subsequent adults that were hanging out as larvae.
I've done that for 3 weeks now, and I haven't seen any signs of spider mites. However, my tree still doesn't look great. I also read that spider mites don't like air circulation, so from time to time I'll turn on a fan from a distance to get some air circulation in the room.
I water my plant every 7-9 days, and this last week I put some fertilizer that was high in nitrogen. Was it too soon to fertilize it since it's been stressed by spider mites?
It sits by a south-facing window and gets plenty of sunlight (but I try not to let it have too much direct sun)
The leaves continue to turn yellow and fall off. I can't tell that the leaves fall off in any sort of order (ie, older vs. newer leaves).
What am I doing wrong? Please help! I don't want it to die. :(
Here are some links to photos of some of the leaves and the tree:
I think you may be about to be saved by the arrival of Spring when you can begin to put it outdoors... at least during part of the day. In fotos 3 and 4 it looks like new growth is starting. Meyers in pots, when they are moved to new light conditions tend to drop a lot of leaves and replace them with leaves that are better adapted to the new light scenario. Considering that, when you are going to move the trees, it is best to do it gradually, as in sunlight to part shade to full shade to indoors; and the opposite when you move them out. Considering the age of the tree (small carbohydrate storage in trunk and branches) and the spider mite problem, I would say your young Meyer is not looking too bad. Yes, I would give it a little fertilizer now, try not to over water, and try to get it outside as soon as you can.
Welcome Emily and Hello John!
Emily, first and utmost, where do you live? When can you put your tree outdoors?
That tree is small enough to wipe every leaf off with warm milk and water often.
If it can't be oudoors for a while, I would watch your watering closly as John says. I must say it looks like it is in a great mix. Is that the 5.1.1 mix many here use? Mostly bark? Very porous?
That was a great catch on your part, finding the mites. Most would not be aware of this factor so my hats off to you for controlling it.
I would make sure it gets lots of sunlight at this point. even if it should drop all the leaves, at least the roots will stay strong and still push new growth accustomed to new light levels.
I have many times actually plucked every leaf off just to have the tree come back bushier than ever. They are more resilient than one might think.
I would of held back on fertilizing after an attack as so, because you don't want to encourage new growth in your warm , dry conditions unless you can figure a way to discourage mites from coming back to eat the fresh foiliage about to grow with 'constant' air movement aimed to blow towards under the leaves. Never shut your fan off and see if you can use a small table one with low speed.
If I have had a mite infestation,I would actually snip of all the new growth until I can almost put them outside to be on the safe side from stragglers then treat and treat all summer so I don't bring them in the following fall.
I always make sure the environment for mines are just right to reduce mites infestation possibilities.
For instance.
>If they are indoors, in my house, in a sunny window, I like to keep the room very cool with fans and moisture in which mites or any pests detest.
>For those in the greenhouse, I fertilize regularly for new 'strong' growth along with moist air, and air that is constanly being moved my fans.
I am not worried about spindly growth in this case or tender desirable leaves because they are getting all day sun and grow tougher.
In there, I deliberately let temps drop to the 50's at night though again which mites despise.
>At work, where conditions are very dry, I constantly wipe the leaves off those with warm milk and water, and shower them once in a while to keep the leaves clean.
Keeping your tree in a well draining mix, in a full sunny south facing window, leaves clean, fertilizing very lightly to discouarge fresh tender foliage until you are ceratin you have no mites, will help your tree make a full recovery in time for outdoors.
Please, don't fret if those leaves fall off, since many citrus shed leaves anyway for various reasons. As long as you are not loosing branches due to root issues caused by over or under watering or a poor soil mixture, it will come back strong once it sees the great outdoors if not sooner:-)

I thought what the heck, i'll pay the price and try them. ((These were my first pair of Fox Pants, and I mainly purchased them for the colors.)) Warning, these pants are not made for short, or women with thicker legs, I'm 5'2" and They ripped on the inside leg next to the suede patch, and have holes, on the top where the stretchy fabric connects at the knees, this all happened within the first month. I have had them repaired, and they still continue to rip in other places. The Rubber on the inside of the pants are also very annoying, every time you have to use the restroom. I was super bummed, and these were the most expensive pair of riding pants I have purchased. They are snug in the legs, and super baggy in the waist, Just a strange fit overall... I would not purchase these again, but Hope other brands make something with similar colors, or they just improve the whole designRead All Reviews

We must have walked for 8 miles and never saw another person. When we had a lunch at about 12 there were about 6 cars arriving and this kind of took away from our feeling of Robinson Caruso. Enjoy!!

These Ikea dressers should be inducted into some kind of furniture hall of fame. I know we all have a complicated relationship with Ikea furniture, but the Malm dresser is inexpensive, attractive, easy to assemble, holds a TON of stuff and — as this makeover from Josue clearly illustrates — is essentially a blank canvas for creative minds, which is the best outcome of Ikea's success, in my opinion. Josue has totally transformed this dresser into a sharp, graphic, stand-out piece, just by making a few brilliant paint and hardware choices — and hours of sanding, I should say :) Fabulous job, Josue! — Kate
Time: 3 days
Cost: $25 (not including the dresser)
Basic Steps: I figured that since the dresser was new, I wouldn't have to sand it! WRONG! On the first day, I spent about an hour painting. After it dried, I accidentally scratched one of the drawers with my nail, and it came off like nothing. I was pretty puzzled, and I started scratching it more and realized none of the paint stuck. So after some frustration, I started to sand the dresser; it took almost 2 hours. You have to be careful because you don't want to sand too much because these types of dressers aren't real wood, so digging into the compressed wood isn't the best thing.
The next day, I added the first coat of paint. While that was drying, I then started to cut the trim that I purchased. It took about 30 minutes and I had my dad help me out with the measurements and cutting. I sanded down the edges and any rough spots. After I wiped them down, I started the first coat of white paint. While that was drying, I added the second coat of gray to the dresser, then went back to finish the trim. After that, I cleaned the old hardware from the desk, then spray-painted them a bright olive green.
The next day I added the trim to the drawers and the sides of the dresser. It was a bit tricky trying to nail the trim; I had to use a little pick so that my hammer wouldn't' damage my freshly painted trim. I went back and did some touch ups on the spots where my hammer missed the pick, and after that, I started to drill the holes for the hardware. Yay! I'm finished! Took it home, added the hardware and it was ready to go! — Josue

CLICK HERE to see Josue's incredible desk redo after the jump!
This is Josue's second amazing makeover of the day; this time, the subject is an old, well-worn desk belonging to Josue's father. Again, it took a lot of sanding and some very precise brush work, but the result is lovely and fresh. I also really appreciate the mismatched knobs and the sense of playfulness they add to this well-tailored piece. Another great makeover, Josue!
Time: 3 days
Cost: $25 (for supplies)
Basic Steps: My dad bought this desk when he was in his twenties. It's been a part of my life ever since I was a kid. When he got a new desk, I decided to take it off his hands and redesign it. The first day I spent about 3 to 4 hours sanding; getting all those nooks and crannies took up most of my time. On the second day, I started to fill the holes that were left from the old hardware, since I only needed one hole for the majority of the drawers. After an hour, I sanded down the excess putty, then drilled the new holes. I wiped off all the extra saw dust then started painting the desk. It took about 2 hours.
On the third day after the first coat dried, I added a second coat of gray paint and let it dry. After that was done, I then painted the trim and legs white. I really liked the bright contrast between the blue-ish gray and snow white. Finally it was done! I then took it to my new apartment, attached all the new knobs and handles. I then added a piece of glass on top of the desk. Underneath the glass I scattered some vintage looking postcards to add some more color.
If someone wants to attempt a similar project, all I can say is "patience"! I absolutely hate sanding! Especially pieces that have a lot of curves and delicate areas that you can't tackle with a electric sander. It takes time to make these pieces, but in the end, it's so worth it! Trust me! — Josue
The malm makeover is genius! Now to convince my husband that we need a new dresser so I can make over the ones we have and put them in my craft area!! :)
oh my! effects are amazing! Great work. I think I wouldn't be so brave to do it, I doubt in my talent.
Well done on transforming such an ugly set of drawers into something so pretty!
I can't believe it's the same dresser! I have the exact one from IKEA and I didn't realize its full potential.
Wow-that bureau re-do is incredible! Awesome job!
very cute!
love the green hardware on the gray dresser, great transformation!!
I have this Malm dresser from Ikea, too! I've been thinking about thrifting it during my next move, but now I'm inspired to keep it and gussy it up :) Nice job.
Are these DIY-ers painting with a brush or sprayer? Is there a particular brush you recommend for even application? I'm a terrible painter, and I'm hoping a miracle brush will save me.
LOVE it. Can't wait to tackle a similar project in the next few months. WHERE did you get the octopus on the wall?
How do you calculate costs….they all seem a bit low to me. Paint alone costs $25 (even if you get a little thing) and that doesn't include the primer, sand paper, knobs, etc. I think these are all a bit of false advertising
I love that color wheel knob from Anthro. on the desk…I have the same one on one of my own dresser makeovers… good choice :-)
I have a couple of these Malm drawers and have been thinking of painting them. This looks great, can I ask what kind of paint you used?
very bold and unique..love the plethora of knobs and pulls used here! thanks for sharing! xx meenal
While I love the re-do of the desk, I also love the BEFORE version – something about the shabby wood really speaks to me.
I love the dresser! amazing!
That is absolutely amazing. My first reaction was to say "Oh my gosh". Great job!
Oh man…those green drawer pulls make me so happy!
From Malm to Magnificent! I salute you on your fearless paintbrush wielding!
Love the dresser the green drawer pulls are gorgeous.
Wow, incredible! I love them both!
I'm always astonished by the before&after! Both look great!
hi megan
i'm sorry you feel that way, but i can assure you this isn't false advertising. costs for projects like this vary greatly based on where you buy materials and what you already have. i live above a paint store and i'm able to pick up paint and primer together for $25. this sort of hardware can easily be found at a thrift or hardware shop and won't set you back more than $5, especially if you find an older set. so this might drift toward $30 depending on where you by things, but most people don't include the cost of the things they already have around the house like sandpaper, etc. and i don't want to force people to make up amounts for things they already have (ie: tools). that said, we'll make sure that people keep in mind any costs they may have forgotten (like knobs)- but often these projects are submitted by people who use hardware from an old piece they already have for something new.
I have this dresser and now I can't wait to make it over!
I love these two projects! Especially the desk. I'm looking to do something similar to my mother's old china cabinet, thanks for the ideas!
@Megan – I have to agree with Grace here! Josue mentions that the hardware for the dresser came from the desk and the paint for both is the same colour, so I can see how she kept her costs down.
Well done Josue, they both look fantastic!
First thing that came out in my mouth is WOW! This is a great craft I must say. You were able to transform the old-looking cabinet into a beautiful and flair work of art.
Vow !
looks gorgeous after makeover…
I love it! So cheerful. I bet your dad is very proud of you!
i had two of the exact same dresser and the top two drawers were crooked on both…unfortunately ikea doesn't always lend itself as well to makeovers as solid wood furniture. great job working with what you had, though.
That bright green hardware looks so cool and i love the whole look to the dresser. I always get inspired by what you share.
The dresser is a knockout! Isn't the John Derian honeycomb box great as well? I wish I had bought a stack of them when they were in Target!
great work! it looks amazing! i can't wait to become as talented as you! keep up the good work josue!
The Ikea piece looks great with its facelift. I support a lot of Ikea products and love some of their designs, but has anyone else had the drawers fall apart on them? I had a solid wood piece that looked nice, but they constantly fell off the tracks (I lived in SoCal at the time).
Regardless, I think the color pairings are great and love the green and sailor blue.
If you can wait it out, Anthropologie's knobs often end up at $2.99 each on sale. The mix and match is a great idea!
Lovely! I would also like to know where the octopus came from, i love it!
What paint is it? It looks grey-blue
I have had the same furniture for 4 yrs now so for me this will be a perfect project.
I have that same dresser. It's big and i love it. It's nice to see the potential in ikea. You can really make something your own with a little bit work and a lot of creativity and love :)
Thanks for the answer Grace…I hope you didn't think that I didn't love the before and after b/c I surely do. I am doing a much smaller project and know that knobs alone cost me more so was curious
Great Ikea re-do! Turned out really great.
What a brilliant idea. I love the way you have truly customised the chest of drawers. We could do with someone like you in London!
oh soooo worth all that sanding. marvellous!!!
Kate; your remark about IKEA furniture is so to the point… some of their stuff REALLY ought to be in a 'Hall of Fame'… – they have fantastic designers and if stuff breaks, it wasn't expensive at least!!
Love the work young Josue did; very 'in' colours, lovely handles, love the mix & match, makes a fresh and very modern look. Great post!
omg. i own 2 malms and it destroys me every time i look at them. this is amazing i cant wait to get working on my dressers – totally inspired :)
Stunning transformation!! I have a question for you guys… I wanted to purchase two of the black/brown Ikea Hemnes nightstands and paint them dark black and semi glossy to match the rest of the furniture in my bedroom. Is this possible to do?! Any suggestions on what type of paint to use and how to do it? All comments/advice/tips welcome!!
Here is a picture of the Hemnes, just in case you are not familiar with it: http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/90121234
Holy Guacamole- so impressed! Awesome feature :)
Josue you can spend less time sanding, just do a quick light scuff+then use a HIGH ADHESIVE primer such as Aqualock or Fresh Start (Para,Benny Moore) before your colour. Unlike cheaper primers,these have a glue content that locks in the surface to be painted so your top colour has somethin to bind to+not scratch off. Its worth the $ for what u save in time+labour! Great Job!
These are fantastic! Definitely saving in my inspiration files!
LOVE the dresser! I'm curious, too – where did you get that awesome octopus?
Great job! Also, I must give kudos to the great D*S readers and commenters. Nothing like the snooty mean-spirited readers of this same redo on AT.
Good work, looks beautiful!
I cant believe the transformation! That Malm dresser is ubiquitous, and it just goes to show what some creativity and genius can do to transform the ordinary into something incredibly extraordinary!
HOLY. CRAP. you guys. I have 2 malm dresses and I have been racking my BRAIN to figure out what the heck to do with them and this is it. THIS IS IT! you've solved my dilemma. Thank you thank you thank yoooooou!!!
Any chance you know what type of paint used on the malm??
The hook is from anthropologie… trust me, I work there!
What kind of paint was used? I want to do this over the weekend but I don't want to but the wrong paint. Is it Semi gloss? Matte? Should I be priming after I sand it?
There it is!!!! I'd seen that Octopus hook somewhere and wanted to buy it, but now I've forgotten who was selling them. Can you tell me where you got yours? If you could I'd be eternally grateful. I've been kicking myself for months for forgetting. Im obsessed with that thing!
Wow, I am long overdue for a thank you! I really appreciate all the comments and tips for future projects. I am aware that Ikea furniture isn't the best quality but that shouldn't stop anyone from giving a piece a nice face lift. To answer a few questions, I got the pain at a local paint supply store in my hometown. I actually got the paint color from one of my old shirts. I brought it in and they did a color match for me, they grey was a little bit more on the cooler side than I anticipated but I really love the way it turned out. Oh and abou the hook, I got it as a gift and you can find it at anthropologie. http://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/catalog/productdetail.jsp?id=974284&catId=HOME-HARDWARE&pushId=HOME-HARDWARE&popId=HOME&navCount=12&color=007&isProduct=true&fromCategoryPage=true&isSubcategory=true&subCategoryId=HOME-HARDWARE-HOOKS
Thank you so much for the info! Great job on the make over!
What kind of paint did you use for the dresser? Did you use a roller or a brush?
LOVE LOVE LOVE this!!! can you tell me what you mean by "cutting the trim" you'd purchased? i would love to know what that is. i assumed the white was just stenciling, but maybe not…. thanks for your help! seriously, i'm so in love with both pieces!
Hi Josue,
I know I am just one more person asking you the same thing but we didn't really get an answer to this question. What type of paint did you use for the dresser (semi gloss, flat, etc? and type of sand paper (grit number) did you use? and lastly did you use any type of protective coating on the top to prevent it from damaging or scraping?
Thank you,
I am painting an Ikea dressers. Made a mistake in thinking i can just primer without sanding. Bad idea. Can anyone tell me what to do now. I was going to sand the primer then add a second coat. I need help I want to do this right. I saw you painted and then sand can I do the same, Josue?
i , like many others was obsessed with finding the now discontinued IKEA MALM DRESSING TABLE in black. So yesterday I bought the white one and spray painted it with KRYLON . Here it is

Changing nappy during the night
Started by Wacky Wobbler , Dec 26 2012 06:35 PM

Posted 26 December 2012 - 06:35 PM
When my 7wk old wakes for a feed during the night I always change his nappy even if it is only wet. I change it halfway through a feed. I have had a couple of people tell me that I shouldn't change it (unless it is dirty) as it will wake him up too much and he will struggle to go back to sleep.
Does anyone else not change nappies during the night?
Posted 26 December 2012 - 06:43 PM
Always changed a nappy till they have slept longer and no more feeds! For my babies the bed would be soaked otherwise, my dd this has been about 10 mths ds I can't remember sorry but probably earlier
Posted 26 December 2012 - 06:47 PM
We do- we use cloth nappies and they are soaked by time she wake up. I am feeding using EBM and formula, so DH goes and heats the EBM while I change her nappy.
Even if we are using disposibles I usually change it, it is part of the routine here.
We also watch TV with the lights on while we feed overnight. Have done it with all 3 children, and have not had probles with settling back to sleep after the fee, and the first two slept through at 10 and 6 weeks respectively.
Posted 26 December 2012 - 06:48 PM
I always changed his nappy in the middle of a feed, between sides (he always took both sides).
Posted 26 December 2012 - 06:49 PM
If you are worried about it waking him up too much why not change before you start the feed?
I don't actually think it is necessary, unless you can feel it is very full or dirty. Try a few nights not changing and see if he goes back to sleep better and if he is leaking in the morning.
What sort of nappies do you use? that might make a difference too.
Posted 26 December 2012 - 06:51 PM
We always changed at night if needed. I think he was around 9 months when we stopped as it wasnt needed anymore.
We found it easier to change a nappy in the night rather than change bedding, clothes and gro bag.
Posted 26 December 2012 - 06:53 PM
In the early days, I changed between feeds. Around about 6 months? I started changing before a feed. She started to wake up too much at the halfway feed the halfway change nappy I think really is only good for when your baby is little and falls asleep feeding and you want to keep them up.
ETA: hard to type on iPhone!
Edited by Madnesscraves, 26 December 2012 - 06:55 PM.
Posted 26 December 2012 - 06:58 PM
I changed his nappy just before I put him back to bed after his feed, he always wet his nappy while feeding. Once he had a dry butt I re-wrapped him and he was put back in his cot drowsy. He learnt to put himself the rest of the way to sleep fairly quickly, no fussing. He would make a few noises as he got comfortable then zonk out.
Posted 26 December 2012 - 06:58 PM
We don't have too many issues with him going back to sleep. If we do I just usually put him in his rocker while I express and by the time I'm finished he is usually asleep. Lately I have been changing his nappy before the feed though.
The person who told me not to change his nappy was shocked that I did it, which I thought was a bit weird.
Posted 26 December 2012 - 06:58 PM
I didn't unless it was dirty, or very full. But I had (have) a very bad sleeper who doesn't need any extra activity in the middle if the night.
Posted 26 December 2012 - 07:02 PM
Nope, never change it between 6pm and 6am unless forced to! I try not to wake myself too much, but it also works for the baby...
Posted 26 December 2012 - 07:08 PM
Someone somewhere will always be shocked, I wouldn't worry too much.
I changed DS overnight up until 4m or so. from then on, i only change d if it was a poop. We used disposables overnight and rarely does he leak.
Posted 26 December 2012 - 07:21 PM
Only if dirty. I did change them at first until I realised it was waking her up too much. When I stopped changing during the night she soon started sleeping much longer stretches/through the night (of course that could just be a coincidence but I believe it did really help). I slather on nappy cream when putting on the night time nappy. Haven't had any problems with rashes.
It could be something to try if you want to encourage sleeping through but I say do ever what works for you.
Posted 26 December 2012 - 07:27 PM
I cannot imagine a wet nappy would be very comfortable to sleep in so I always change.
DS only wakes once so I change his nappy, feed and put back to bed.
Posted 26 December 2012 - 07:29 PM
We don't change unless it's dirty or overlay full either. In fact DS stays zipped in his cacoon too - another tip I read somewhere. He feeds and stays in a sleep zone and I pop him back and he's fast asleep after a few wiggles. I then change him as soon as he's next awake before the next feed.

We always changed our bubs if they woke in the night for a feed and they were wet.
Posted 26 December 2012 - 07:48 PM
i always changed before the feed! Always thought it made them more comfortable
Posted 26 December 2012 - 08:00 PM
I did till about 10 weeks as a matter of course and after than only if very full or dirty.
Then when she got a bit older- maybe 4 months or so, I got jack of it and just started putting her in a bigger sized disposable with lots of barrier cream, and it was fine.

I didn't unless it was dirty, or very full. But I had (have) a very bad sleeper who doesn't need any extra activity in the middle if the night.
Ditto. Disposables hold a lot and unless he has done a poo I don't change until the morning as once he's fully awake it takes forever to get him back down. I did change at every feed until about 10 weeks or so because as a bf baby he pooed every nappy but grew out of it.
Posted 26 December 2012 - 08:04 PM
I always changed DD1 until she started sleeping through. Never change DD2, she gets very distressed if I try to delay the feed at all and falls asleep as she finishes, and its definitely not worth waking her up again. We use cloth and haven't had any leaks or rashes so it doesn't worry me. Will wait and take my cue from the next bub before I decide what we do this time around.
Posted 27 December 2012 - 09:19 AM
DS2 now 11 weeks goes to bed at 8pm with a clean higher end nappy (such as Huggies). He rouses at 130am and 4amfor milk. We change nappy only if its full and mostly after feeds or he will scream the whole house down. If soiled (ESP the constant diarrhea recently), we change while feeding (meaning both of us must wake up, dh feeds while I clean him up).
I thought it's better to change before feed or he may puke milk when we lift his bum with a full tummy, but he will cry! But Changing after a feed seems better as he is content and may do a big poo so no crying n save a nappy n save changing twice!
He usually won't wake if we keep it dim and quiet and gentle. If he does wake, he would just go to sleep after swaddle and put in cot.
Posted 27 December 2012 - 09:35 AM
When DD was little I would change her between sides as shs would fall asleep before the first breast was even finished and I needed to wake her up to finish the feed! She would always be sound asleep before I even put her in the bassinet so never had any issues with that.

Nope, never change it between 6pm and 6am unless forced to! I try not to wake myself too much, but it also works for the baby...
How do you do that? I find that very hard. Won't thee be lots pee? Won't there be leaking at all? Even with AF, I need to change pads in the middle of the night as its so uncomfortable. I can't imagine bub wearing the same nappy for 12 hours.
Posted 27 December 2012 - 11:26 AM
I never change nappies in the middle of the night. I do find that it wakes my baby and she struggles to settle afterwards. Of course, if I smell poos I change it or if its excessively wet but most of the time its fine til the morning.

In my opinion if they don't wake they're comfortable. From experience she pees when she wakes up. Not through the night. When I have AF I don't need to change pads overnight. But then again I use the night ones when required. Every baby is different.

We have a 13 year old and a 2 year old and they both absolutely love their trampoline (large oval). I love that I can pop the little one in whilst hanging out the washing and easily keep an eye on her from a distance (and know that she is safe)and the oval shape means there is heaps of jumping space but it is not too obtrusive in the yard. The 13 year old has friends over all the time who enjoy jumping and just hanging out on the tramp. They are really looking forward to Springfree coming out with a tent so that they can camp out in it.

No, he got a job really close by to the school and still hangs out at the club once in awhile. He's actually still a major character. Actually, now that I think about it, in the same way Anakin Skywalker became the center of the six Star Wars movies despite not being a protagonist in most of them, Madarame has become the center of both of the manga series.

Cleats Sports Classic Invite Preview
Todd Gold
Sunday, March 11, 2012
SCOTTSDALE, AZ-- The 2012 Cleats Sports Classic Invitational tournament will bring together 23 teams from schools in eight states as well as Canada.
Co-hosts Chaparral and Saguaro are both defending state champions in Arizona, with Saguaro having won back-to-back titles. Other host teams include 2011 5A semifinalist Desert Ridge, the current No. 4 team in the
Southwest Regional Rankings
in 8-2 Desert Mountain, 9-0 Tolleson, and 9-2 Arcadia. Each host team won at least one playoff game in 2011 and are among the top teams the state of Arizona has to offer.
The host teams are joined by teams from Alaska, Alberta, British Columbia, California, Colorado, Tennessee, Texas, Utah and Washington.
The nation of Canada sends four teams, with Abbotsford Secondary School joining three club teams; the Calgary, Redbirds, Vancouver Cannons and the North Shore Twins. The other representative from the north is Houston High School from Big Lake, Alaska.
In addition to providing rare exposure to the large crop of players from Canada and Alaska, the Cleats will feature several players who have already made a name for themselves as prospects on the national level. 2011 Perfect Game All-American Classic participant Mitchell Traver highlights a strong Houston Christian squad which has opened the season with an 11-5 record in spite of a very tough schedule playing in one of the most competitive areas of high school baseball in the nation.
Houston Christian has a combined staff ERA of 1.56 and TCU commits Traver and RHP
Brian Trieglaff
are joined by effective finesse lefty
Hayden Treu
, experienced senior
Alan Norman
and promising 2014 RHP
Blake Richards
Chaparral features the top ranked lefty in the field with
Scott Diamond
, an Arizona State commit. Junior
Dillon Bigcrane Jackson
gives the Firebirds another interesting LHP, . The Firebirds have won nine state titles in the past 20 years, with four more championship appearances. The Firebirds have sent three players to Major League Baseball in recent years: Paul Konerko, Ike Davis and Brian Bannister.
Saguaro doesn't feature a pitcher of the caliber of Traver or Diamond, but their abundance of quality position players make them a legimate contender in this tournament. Led by CF/RHP
Zach Gibbons
and RF
Chris Akmon
, the SabertCats feature a dangerous lineup that can quickly jump out to big leads.
Other prospects who have caught the eye of the Perfect Game staff in the past include: Fort Collins SS
JD Hammer
, Chaparral teammates 1B
Dylan Cozens
and 3B
Chance Adams
, Montgomery Bell SS/RHP
