Lots of storage
We love the buffet. It has a clean modern look and lots of storage. It arrives in three boxes and takes a while to assemble, but the directions are clear and it is not difficult to put together.Read More
Minor flaws, but worth it!
Nice buffet - flaws are giving it some character!Read More
Very nice buffet
I looked on a lot of sites to find something that would conceal everything in the cabinets, while also looking nice. I am using my dining room as an office, and ordered the Havana Carson Large Dining Table to use as a desk. The two look great together, and I was really happy with both of my purchases. A friend put it together, and it took a couple of hours-but no issues while putting it together.Read More
Side panel came damaged
Product arrived damaged. Side panel was split. Tried to get a new piece sent out but item was out of stock and told they would let me know when it arrives. Week passed with no answers. Finally was told to send back item which was already unpackaged. Finally just put together cause of time it spent on my floor during the holidays waiting on overstock.Read More
Beautiful, but time consuming to put together!
Absolutely beautiful piece! BUT it took FOREVER to put together. My husband who is Macgyver, even said it was ridiculous! But well worth it in the end. Came undamaged and free of any nicks or scratches. TONS of storage in this piece!Read More
Functional and beautiful
This buffet table arrived very well packed in three heavy boxes. When unpacked, the prospect of putting it all together looked very daunting because there were so many pieces, but the instruction was easy to follow with every piece clearly marked. The hardest part to assembe was the sliding drawers. You must make sure that the wheels are correctly placed, otherwise the drawers will slide out when you are finished. (I made that mistake and had to unscrew all the drawer hardware parts and re-do again.) It might help by visualizing how it should work before actually screwing in the parts. You'll need power tool for this job, otherwise your hands will have blisters. You'll also need couple of hours to assemble. I did it by myself and it took all day. The end result was as shown on the picture. The table came out steady, functional, and beautiful. I would recommend this table to anyone who wished to have extra diningroom storage space. You just need a little patience to put it all together. The end result is well worth the effort.Read More
Stylish buffet
We purchased the buffet, table and 6 chairs. The buffet was the most time consuming but still only took a few hours to assemble. Everything went together very nicely. The drawers slide smoothly and the cabinet doors open easily. It is very sturdy and well made. I really like the modern design and the color is exactly what I was looking for, "dark espresso".Read More
Very happy 1st time buyer
I was very nervous about purchasing this buffet without seeing it in person. My husband even warned me about ordering it. I took a chance and am very, very pleased. This buffett is beautiful! It wasn't hard to put together just time consuming. We even used a regular ol' screwdriver because the battery went out on our electric one. Read and reread directions. The picture is true to color and is a beautiful rich dark brown. It is mostly (90%) solid wood and very sturdy. It was packed and shipped expertly and arrived in less than a week, which included a holiday and a weekend. I couldn't be happier with this purchase. It even won my husband over and we are ordering a similar Axium product. Thanks for a great product at a great price!!!Read More
darker than thought, very sturdy
The buffet is very sturdy and looks great, but just a warning that is a very dark brown, closer to black. It took 2 people about 5 hours to put together, working diligently. The parts are well labeled and an electric screwdriver is a must. I really didn't notice an odor as others did and have gotten many compliments on it. Good storage, do wish there were more than one shelf for each side. Drawers open and close smoothly and doors fit well.Read More
Positive Review
This piece completed my formal dining room. It looks very rich. The Quality I think is fair for the price. I found that the wood split easily when screwing in the back panel. But the product when assembled looks exceptional. If you're not one for assembling furniture and is short on patience; this is not the product for you. This piece has very very many parts and took me an entire weekend to assemble.Read More
Questions & Answers
Should fit perfectly on a wall and replace a storage box
Does this buffet come completely assembled?
Hello Emily, this lovely item does require assembly. Thank you for shopping with us.
The Buffet looks lovely. But can i put 2 buffets side by side so they look like 1, or will there be a space in between
Hello manush, yes you could do that. They would be flush up against each other. Have a great day!
What is the height of the buffet? I see 2 heights in the description: 33 and 34 inches. What number is right?
Hello IslandGirl, the buffet is approximately 34 inches high. Thanks for shopping with us!
From the bottom of the leg to the top of the buffet is exactly 33 inches.
Is the color more brown or an expresso?
Hello bexyg, we appreciate your inquiry. This item is more of an espresso. We hope this information has been helpful. Thank you for shopping with us. Have a great day!
I have the Broyhill Northern. Lights dining room table and chairs but I really like this server. Do you think it'll match or do you have other suggestions?
Thank you for contacting us brittweiss. Unfortunately, we are unable to say if they match or not. We apologize for any inconvenience we might have caused. I attached below the link to some others that might work for you. Please let us know if you have any further questions. http://www.overstock.com/Home-Garden/Buffets/19115/subcat.html
this piece is a very dark brown.
is the back of the buffet also made of rubber wood? what is the spacing between the bottom of the buffet and the floor?
Thank you for shopping with us dezmondi. The back is MDF and the leg height is 4 1/2 inches. Have a great day.
the back is pieced together (2 pieces of mdf stacked one on top of each other).
i purchased the Cheshire Rich Espresso Dining set and love it. Will the color of this match the set? If it is almost black I believe it will be too dark, but that is not the description. Please clarify if it will match the dining set. Thanks.
Hello 4macbud, from the images provided this looks like it will be to dark to match your dining set. This Item #: 80004466 may match a little better. Thank you for shopping with us.
What is the construction of the drawers (dovetail joints)?
Good morning casreg, the drawers are connected with 3 screws on each corner. Have a great day!
think "made in china", no dovetails.
We bought this from Overstock a few years ago, and really like it. However, during a recent move, the inner shelves went missing - is there a was to order those separately? I was sent a link via chat to productassist.com, but it would not let me register (which seems to be a prerequisite for support). Thanks
Hello donhalejandro, Thank you for contacting us. I am forwarding your request to our specialty team that handles parts requests. You will be contacted by them shortly.
Are the drawers on tracks with rollers?
Thank you for your interest. Yes. Please feel free to contact us again with any further questions.
If the height is 34" and the interior is 24.5" where does the extra 10" go? It's not 10" off the floor, right?
Beauty and simplicity of modern casualty furniture. Rich espresso finishing adds to its decorative appeal, and the ample storage organizes everything from napkins to serving bowls and 10 inch off the floor.
Is it possible to put together without the feet so it is flush on the floor
Im sorry, the feet are not removable. You would have to cut them off.
Is it possible to not install the top drawer and leave it open for a television receiver? would any hardware or holes be visible with out the drawer?
Unfortunately, we cannot recommend this. Yes, some hardware and holes will show. The lack of wire holes for the receiver will also present a problem.
What is the weight capacity for the top of this buffet? I plan to place an aquarium on top and it weighs several hundred pounds, but evenly distributed.
The weight capacity should not exceed 35 pounds.
is the back of the buffet finished or unfinished? reason i ask is the buffet will NOT be up against a wall or couch and the rear will be visible.
Thank you for your interest. Yes, this buffet features a finished back. Please feel free to contact us again with any further questions.
Is this color is almost black or dark brown ?
Dark Brown.

How to Clean a Buffet
More than simple storage furniture, buffets are often a functional and decorative part of your dining room. A buffet can operate as a sideboard, credenza, or dining room storage.

From helping you serve a crowd to keeping your serveware stored properly, buffets are functional and beautiful additions to the room where you enjoy your meals. If you're not sure if you need one in your dining room, these facts should help you make a decision.
Buffets Buying Guide
Preparing and serving home-cooked meals is an incomparable joy, especially when it all goes smoothly. The secret to ensuring a smooth, effortless meal is adequate space -- storage space for dishes and utensils and space to serve the entrees. That's why buffets make such popular pieces of dining room furniture. And thanks to their size, shape and storage utility, buffets are also versatile accent tables that are useful just about anywhere. Vocabulary might have something to do with the reason buffet tables aren't put to more use outside the dining room, but this dining room furniture can be used in many different ways throughout your home.

How to Decorate a Buffet Table for a Party

Bojangles' Steals the Spotlight with Country Music Star
Read More About
Southern chicken chain Bojangles' may be one of the more than 20 million fans that tune into "American Idol" each season, but it's got its eye on one contestant in particular: season 10 winner Scott McCreery.
In the brand's latest marketing campaign, Bojangles' recruited the 19-year-old Garner, North Carolina, native to draw in fans from across its 10-state, Southeastern market base.
The campaign, which features radio spots, two 30-second commercials, and in-store merchandising, plays up the brand's southern food and roots.

Does anyone make a 2-gang shallow old-work box?
My exterior walls are masonry with furring strips - regular boxes won't fit. I need the less-than-1.5"-deep "shallow" boxes, and yes - I am aware of the box fill limitations this imposes.
For single-gang devices, Carlon has a nifty one-gang shallow old work box that has a side piece that slips into the wall, providing full box volume with a shallow profile and single-gang hole in the wall. Just wish it was part of their "Super Blue" line instead of being the flimsy blue plastic..
The only 2-gang shallow boxes I've been able to find are new work, and I can't find ANY 3+ gang shallow boxes. Does someone make a gangable metal shallow box I could use for this?
For that matter, is a 4-gang old work box even a good idea? Or do I really need to open the whole wall up at that point?
What is limiting the depth available? Any possibility of drilling/chiseling out space for a deeper box? Add a Wiremold box on the surface? If the wall surface where the box will be located or the surface behind it is a short/small wall space, could furring strips be added and covered by new drywall to create some wall depth? Typically, by thinking about a problem for two or three days, a solution becomes apparent.
"could furring strips be added and covered by new drywall to create some wall depth?"
I actually had to do this in a bedroom in my house where they built the interior walls with the 2x4 on their side, and 2" is NOT enough room for a standard box. In hindsight, I should have built the wall out with 2x2 or 2x4, but I was in a pinch and built it out by adding 2 more furring strips on top of the 1 already there making my final thickness 4 1/4 giving me plenty of room. I probably could have gone with only 2 total, but i went with 3 just to be safe.
Perel, In a perfect world you should frame it in with 2x4. If not, then add 1 or 2 more furring strips.
Funny, I had the same issue, in trying to maximize my basement space, I used 2x4s on their side, I got so frustrated with the electric box issues, I just ripped them back out, and installed a conventional wall. And in the end, you do not notice the lost space anyways, and I have a better wall in the end.
Either reframing the wall or adding more furring strips would require tearing down all the plaster and putting up new drywall. That's not happening. To clarify - this isn't one wall in particular, this is how the *entire house* is constructed. ALL exterior walls are, exterior to interior, face brick, concrete block, furring strip, gypsum lath, plaster, more plaster, paint.
BTW - finally found one! Turns out Raco makes a gangable 1.5" deep metal single device box. However, the only way to meet box fill requirements is to have additional gangs unused (blank faceplate) just to get enough cubic inches, so it looks like I'll be better off relocating these devices to an interior wall.
The Carlon B117RSW is *genius*. It's the only way I *can* meet the box fill requirements for the required receptacles in these exterior walls..
Here is a link that might be useful: RACO 400 box
Nothing in any code prohibits boxes from protruding from the wall. To cover an extra 1/4" of depth, a jumbo wall plate can be cut to fit around the box to cover that much space and then a regular plate is used to complete the "sandwich". The box also could be recessed into the concrete block, as I suggested in my first post.
Here is a link that might be useful: P&S
Let me clarify what I am curious about. Perel needs to find a way to get a 2 gang opening in a shallow box with enough room so he doesn't go over the box fill. The solution that he found was to use a 2 gang box and single gang mud ring. I'm not following how that works...
Ah. I see the confusion; my bad. The Carlon single-gang old work boxes ended up being too deep too, so I just made these boxes single gang instead of double. That's where the 2-gang box / 1-gang mud ring came from.
I suppose if that location had ended up needing 2 gangs on the wall, I could have just used a larger box underneath and a 2-gang mud ring.. same principle. Still, in the end I decided that was more trouble than it was worth.
Easy solution. Take 2 of the Carlon shallow depth old-work boxes. One will be your "right" and one will be your "left." Where the 2 boxes will meet, drill out 1" holes. The conductors from one side will be fed through the hole. When you install the duplex outlets, use the adjusting slot to move them toward the middle so your cover plate will fit properly.
Brick, you got caught up in the "dig up an ancient thread" syndrome. Askgary replied to this thread as if it were posted yesterday.
Askgary, no matter how hard you try that will not work. You'll never get the two devices close enough to use a two gang plate. Besides, the way you describe is quite non-code-compliant. You'd have to do more to make it complaint, and even then it would still be nearly impossible to get a plate to fit and would still be hackery.

In disappointing news, Japanese developers Cing have filed for bankruptcy. The studio, most widely known for games like Another Code: R and DS adventures Hotel Dusk / Last Window are left owing more than 200 million Yen (2.21 million USD at the current Japanese exchange rate).
Cing also had a hand in the critically acclaimed Wii game Little King's Story. It's not yet known whether a buyer will step in to help out. Fingers crossed.

Horsebytes -- A blog for Seattle-area horse folks

Oh yeah, fart humor. This was funny... when I was 10. Besides the fart humor, the overall material was just dry. I don't even know how this was popular, and quite honestly, I'm glad you quit. This was really dreadful.
Quite one of the most perfect renditions of what flash should be with excellent usage of sprites. I see no flaws in how everything is executed - this is rare even in modern flash, especially where sprites are used. Choreography is perfect, which is unheard of. It's not like we idolize you man, you just did that good of a job, humor be done.
I do have to say it is a shame that Majin Piccolo gave up on flash animations. For all the people who say he is talentless, look at stuff like -Tribute- Which was just amazing.
He honestly did have humor, even if I good majority of it was potty humor, but movies like The Golden Mushroom and a good chunk of his Skittles N' Bitz series prove that he had humor behind that. I wish he'd return to flash animation, but if he's lost his passion, then oh well. =(
i hate fart jokes
Good Art
Would like it to be funnier. I see potential. I'll watch more. the end.

UK stock market commentary (April 15, 2014): Traders dilema
European equities are set to open flat as they're caught between two competing poles of sentiment. On the one hand, pulling traders towards the bullish camp is the recovery taking place in the US. Its resilience and ability to shake off shocks like the weather should be a good indicator for the global economy. However, arguing for a more bearish stance, right on Europe's doorstep is the Ukrainian tinderbox that has the possibility to flare up into an incident of unimaginable size.
Closer to home the economic outlook remains murky. Whilst the alarm bells of deflation on the continent have been sounding for a while, today's expected 7th consecutive decline in the UK CPI is sure to get some speculating that we are in for the same fate. Although deflation is supposed to be negative for stocks, in a roundabout way it could be bullish. Pressure is already mounting on the ECB to fire off some QE bazookas and the last time the UK got down to around these levels of inflation the BoE actually did, although that was more of a coincidence rather than a direct attempt at staving off deflation.
The Dow Jones industrial average rose 146 points almost 0.9 percent on Monday, recovering from its sharp fall last week. The boost in stocks came from stronger than expected retail data that helped put the mind of some traders at ease given the current situation in the Ukraine. The rise in the Dow was also spurred on by solid earnings from Citigroup which reported its net income for the first quarter up 4%.
The dollar has a strong session with U.S retail sales shooting up in March however EUR/USD remained fairly unchanged in Monday's trading session with concerns still looming over the geopolitical landscape in the Ukraine. The EUR/USD has also been finding support from recent declines in US yields.
Despite rising concerns over the Ukraine, West Texas Intermediate declined by as much as 0.8% hitting a session low of $103.36 amidst speculations of increased inventories in the US. The commodity fell from its 6 week high levels with stockpiles estimated to have expanded by 1.5 million barrels last week, in what would be its 12th gain in 13 week.
Gold continued its three week climb on Monday with the precious metal being fuelled by the increased hostilities in Eastern Europe. Gold's safe haven appeal came to the rescue of investors once again as it climbed as much as 0.7% to $1327.10 an ounce. Monday proved to be spot gold's fourth session of gains in 5 days after reaching two month lows earlier in the month.

The finderscope is the only thing I can honestly complain about. I solved that by installing a Celestron Star Pointer Finderscope. Now it's simple to find objects.
I have seen nice views of the moon, the bands of Jupiter, the Flame Nebula, and many other wonders. Once I got the feel for using an equatorial mount, things became much easier.
The images submitted were my first try at imaging. Jupiter in the 10mm Eyepiece was much brighter and sharper.

I'm an amateur astronomer and have a good deal of experience with more advanced telescopes. I bought this for my nephew as an introductory scope. Overall, I'm very pleased with the mirror optics and mount. It delivers good views of the planets and the Orion Nebula. The mount and focusing are stable. The telescope seems mostly rugged and is relatively lightweight.
The main con: I read about people having problems with the finderscope, and can confirm that the finder is absolutely a nightmare. For starters, the battery casing was broken and I could not get the finder to work. Others online recommended taking it apart to solder a wire that tends to break inside the battery compartment. Sure enough, I opened it up and found the wire broken. The finder lit up after I soldered the connector back together. I was shocked to discover that the design of the finder is completely useless for pointing the telescope in the dark. The red dots are not even remotely comparable to better designed Telrad or even Celestron red dot (1x dot projected at infinity) finders. To point the finder, you have to line up two red dots and while your eye is focused on the sky it is impossible to focus on the red dots. So, after trying for several hours, I was unable to calibrate the red dots such that they would help me to point the scope in the correct place. Instead, I had to get it approximately in the correct part of the sky and then scan around. This was frustrating for me, and I know it would be very frustrating for a new user. If you buy this telescope, it is extremely important to also buy and install a finder that works, such as the Celestron red dot finder.
My other complaint concerns the poor quality of the 20 mm eyepiece. It was lightweight, plastic, and inverts the image (bad for astronomical viewing). While the image of the orion nebula was pleasant, the 20 mm does not provide an exceptionally wide field of view. To get the most out of this telescope, consider buying a 40 mm super plossl. You'll be able to see through the scope easier, see the whole moon, and find small objects that are hard to hit with higher magnification. The 10 mm eyepiece was acceptable, but will not deliver a very high level of magnification. Consider also buying a 2x or 3x barlow to enlarge the planets and to use with your 40 mm plossl or just buy a 5 mm plossl eyepiece.
Aside from the finder and the eyepiece, the telescope was a good deal at the discounted price, but I would not recommend buying this scope without also buying a better finder.

Comments about Celestron AstroMaster 114 EQ Reflector Telescope:
First telescope, for a beginner with no prior experience with telescopes. This is a great beginner scope with incredible sights. The first night I had it, we spotted the moon, Venus and Jupiter (with three moons showing clearly!). Such breathtaking sights has us hooked and we'll be upgrading next year to a much bigger mirror.
The construction itself is great, although I have trouble rotating the OTA around to get the sights on the side nearest me.
The finderscope works great, night or day, but came severely out of synch. I'm sure the instructions show how align it, but I'm stubborn and said "I don't need no instructions! I'm a MAN!"..... boy, was I wrong. After correctly aligning, there's no trouble finding anything, from planets to nebula. Birds or stars. Everything send to just line up perfectly.
The equatorial mount is DEFINITELY advanced. It's not an easy thing to learn for noobies. I wish it had something on the bottom, where it screws onto the tripod, to keep the whole thing from rotating. I can't get it any tighter, yet it easily rotates around this axis, throwing off polar alignment.
The lenses look good quality to me, but the sizes could have been better planned. If a person gets a barlow lens, like I did, the sizes conflict. But, nonetheless, there are no other problems I see.
For the price, this was well spent. I also purchased the motor drive and a set of lenses that perfectly blended into this set. I will be purchasing another telescope soon from you all!

Comments about Celestron AstroMaster 114 EQ Reflector Telescope:
The mount is the only part of the deal tha may make this a wrth while purchase, Mirrors are ok..cant collimate this scope, this is a bird jones design, any amatuer that knows anything about these type of scopes knows they are poor performers, and you will never get a IN focus object no matter what you do.
Light doesnt come to a point ...EVER in a Bird Jones design...look it up folks..
The scope itself is cute, I love the look, the mount is very good and th tripod, not awful, very decent in fact.
This may an okay grab and go scope, for quick looks at the moon..and planets, Does an okay view of the moon for sure.,.planets are a disappointment for sure.
Star clusters suffer, some faint fuzzies are okay.
Finder scope, ..ashame its built into the scope..just buy another finder..

Q1: Will images in this telescope be upside down?
A: Good question. The images in this telescope will be right side up as long as you use the 20mm eyepiece that comes with it. This eyepiece features Erect Image Optics which corrects the image making it ideal for land viewing in addition to sky viewing. Any other eyepiece will show the image upside down, which is common in reflecting telescopes.
Q2: The focal ratio between the 130 EQ and the 114 EQ are quite different. What does this effect?
A: More important is the difference in the aperture size, 130mm or 114mm, the larger the aperture, the more light you can gather. The 130 features a shorter focal length and will magnify objects less than the 114mm telescope will, however the more important feature of a telescope is the light gathering ability, so we would always suggest larger aperture over more magnification ability. Most objects in the night sky are viewed between 40x-100x, making either the 130 and 114 qualified. The larger aperture of the 130 makes for a better view of objects.
Q3: Can you see Saturn with this telescope?
A: Saturn is easily viewed in this telescope, and actually in most telescopes. Saturn with its rings will be easy to view in most any telescope. Jupiter and its moons will also be easily visible from this, and all other telescopes. Planets are very bright and easy to view in all telescopes. Galaxies and other deep space objects are also able to be seen with this telescope. The larger your aperture, the more light your telescope can gather. Try not to think of it in "distance" but rather in how much light can you gather, the larger your aperture, your telescope will be able to gather light from these very distant objects.
Q4: Can you use it on a computer?
A: The Celestron Astromaster is not computerized so the unit itself cannot connect to a computer. This telescope does come with software that will give you a tutorial on the use of the telescope and also provides some star charts.
Q5: In what packing is it delivered and is it save to carry in that packing from place to place , and whether the packing is rugged and save for carriage.
A: This telescope comes with no case and the packing is a large cardboard box with foam fitted to protect the scope during shipment. You could carry the telescope in the packaging but it would not offer rugged protection. The packaging is recommended for storage rather than travel.
Q6: Is there a case available for purchase for this telescope?
A: The best case would be the Zhumell Medium Telescope Case. The item number is ZHUL043.
Q7: What is the weight and size/dimension of packing box during shipment?
A: The box dimensions of the Celestron AstroMaster 114EQ are 33"L x 17"W x 12"D. This product ships as 32lbs.

Its pretty much a must-win for the Rangers this Thursday. Even if Pittsburgh wins tomorrow, if the Rangers beat Philly, they will be #1 in the atlantic division, with a game in hand on their two other teams.
Let's hope they bring their A-Game.

Retired Fire Captain in California, love exploring and beachcombing. I've spent a lot of time in Hawaii (Big Island, Maui and Kauai). I'm fascinated with many things.
I've had the very good fortune to have many memorable experiences.
I've flown in a
Pitts S-2A Stunt Plane
Ford Tri-Motor
B-17G Flying Fortress "Nine-O-Nine"
B-24J Liberator 'Witchcraft' aka 'Dragon And His Tail'. She's my girl, only flying B-24J in the world.
I have been incredibly fortunate to have skydived solo, scuba-dived with sharks, and witnessed a volcanic eruption with no other human within 40 miles.
I love cats, including the big cats, especially cheetahs. I hope to see them "live" in Africa. I have great Karma with dogs; I don't have one because it wouldn't be fair to leave it while I'm gone for weeks. Animals are some of my best friends.
My Dad was a Naval Aviator from 1941 to 1955, when he was lost in the crash of his bomber. That history has partly influenced an interest in old military aircraft, especially WWII bombers and fighters, and flying in them is a thrilling experience.
I've always liked videography and photography; digital photography fits me very well. I've always taken numerous shots of each subject, and now I can do it to my heart's delight!
My Flickr name konabish: comes from....
Kona, an awesome place on the Big Island of Hawaii, plus
Bish a nickname my brother firefighters gave me based on my last name of Bishop.
I was a career firefighter, never in the military. I almost surely would have been drafted in 1964 just after turning 18, but my dad had died in the service, making me a sole-surviving son, pretty much assuring no draft.. I have always had mixed feelings, somewhat guilty, along with feeling the loss of having had that experience and camaraderie. BUT it was primetime Viet Nam. My only real exposure was being a US Marine Corps "Devil Pup" at Camp Pendleton in California for 2 weeks. "Back then" (1959 - I was just shy of my 14th birthday), the Devil Pups LIVED AS USMC recruits in Basic Training (It's nowhere the same now): I fired an M-16 rifle (had the purple thumb to show I didn't move fast enough after loading the clip!), and even a 105mm howitzer. I ran into the tripwire of a (dummy) mine, and did push-ups on pea-gravel at O-dark-thirty with my mattress on my back (along with my entire squad, after someone was talking after "lights-out". I did love it. All except sitting in a quonset hut in the stifling heat, watching USMC B&W film of WWII invasions of the Pacific Islands. If you nodded off (I did), you had to stand at attention on a table in the back of the room.
Still it left good feelings. As did the memory of my dad, a US Naval Aviator, and the ships and aircraft i'd see as a part of being his son. What endeared me to the Corps was finding the USMC Sgt who was in charge of my dad's crash site in 1955 in Naples, Italy. Talking to him, I felt a strong sense that he treated that assignment in very a respectful and honorable manner. Semper-fi, JJ.
THANK YOU for looking at my images and making comments. I appreciate your support and feedback.
If you fav an image I would appreciate a comment. If you consistently don't leave a comment I may block or delete you from my Contact list.

Blue Devils notch basketball wins
The Tunica Academy varsity boys' team put up wins this week in its first two games of the season, after games scheduled earlier in the season were delayed until football closed out its 2010 run. The Blue Devils suited up without several members of the team who will be joining them next week.
At North Delta Monday, TA bested a "pretty good" Green Wave team 41-34, Coach Ed Beach said.
Tyler Billingsley and Caleb McCoy were the leading scorers for the Devils, with 15 and 11 points respectively. The two led again Tuesday night at home against Delta Academy, with McCoy notching 20 and Billingsley, 14.

An EXCELLENT place to stay
We had a blast! Being that this was my brother-in-law's first time at the beach, we were able to show him a good time. We cooked almost every night as there were plenty of dishes and pots and pans available for us to cook. A short walk to the beach and surrounded by plenty of things to do for all ages. It rained a lot while we were there, but your condo was so comfortable we did not mind staying in.
Great Place!
Condo was exactly as advertised. We loved it and would definitely return again! The owner was such a pleasure to work with and went above and beyond to ensure our stay for enjoyable.

Guys, I am a completely approachable person if you ever want to try to be friends, to critique my art, or to just have a conversation! Don't be shy.
I welcome all happy comments.
I welcome all constructive criticism.
I welcome all conversation starters!
Hey all I'm Bal! I'm 20, live in the US with my sleddog retiree husky Kirby.
I love drawing, and have a huge passion for animals and the furry community. I'm a very spiritual person. (And technically religious, but I dislike the negative cultural connotations of saying you're VERY RELIGIOUS. Especially since I'm not crazy-in-your-face about it haha! )
I am a HUGE avid gamer, and play a wide range of console-style, MMORPG, and even tabletop games. (Although all of my 'console' games are played on the PC currently, my old playstation broke, and I haven't gotten a new gaming console. But SOON MY FELLOW GAMERS. SOON.)
I adore nature, and love going on hikes, and for runs on trails/beaches, I love aquariums, and I've found some of my favorite places to be on top of a mountain, or underneath an ice cave.
I love fursuiting and fursuit building, and find it to be relaxing, fun, and a great way to spend my time.
I dream of becoming a professional Illustrator, and have aspirations to attend art college to further my knowledge. I also accept critique for most all of my work (Although I appreciate it most on my most recent pieces, since they're the ones which would most closely resemble my new artwork.) because I simply want to get better, and I know other people can see things, and can tell me things that can help me leaps and bounds. (Just a matter of getting them to say it! A lot of people are scared of giving critiques. But I assure you, as long as you're not just blatantly rude, and simply telling me how I suck at _____, I'll appreciate everything you say, and try to incorporate it into future artwork.)
My favorite season is winter, and my favorite holiday is technically Halloween, although I never experienced it as a child. (I grew up in a household where there was no candy giving, no decorations, and no trick or treating, so last year was my first real Halloween! ) Following close behind that one is Christmas, because it was always a huge thing in my family to get together, cook lots of food, and sit around and catch up. The gifts are wonderful too! But I really just loved the laid back atmosphere, and the happy reunions.
Now that you've all gotten to know me a little bit better, I should also note I /love/ talking to people (As if it wasn't obvious. LOL ) and I'm always interested in meeting new people! If you ever just want to chat, throw me a note, or a comment, or ask for my skype, and I'll gladly chit chat with you. ^-^
I've learned in recent years, that even the most negative, and hateful of statements should be welcomed with open arms. After all, if someone is allowed to praise and compliment my work, and tell me how wonderful it is; why should I ever deny someone else the right to tell me that my work is awful, that I need to grasp the basics of anatomy/composition/originality/etc, and that I have FAR more to improve on?
"We are dealt the life we are dealt. It is all of our duties to make the best of it, cherish our good, and try to improve on our bad. "
I think everyone can benefit from learning these lessons.

Dani Pacheco hopes for a new chance at Liverpool under manager Brendan Rodgers.
The Spanish forward, 21, has made two appearances this term — in the Europa League win at Young Boys Berne and the Capital One Cup victory at West Brom.
Pacheco, signed in 2007 after coming through the Barcelona ranks, is full of confidence he can be the next off the conveyor belt.
He insisted: "I hope this is a new opportunity for me. We have already seen he is giving a chance to the youngsters so, hopefully, I will get one in the next few games. I've played a few matches and think I did quite well, so hopefully by working every day I can get back in again.
"I was supposed to go on loan to Spain in the summer but it didn't happen, so I went to see the manager.
"He said he'd treat me as a professional and an adult.
"He has given me the chance to try and impress him — so now it is my job to do my best."
