adding stained glass in sidelites for privacy, any thoughts?
Yet another decision we are working through is our exterior door. We are going with a therma tru fiberglass with sidelites. Given that our entry door opens even with our great room there are privacy concerns. Initially I was going to address that by keeping the glass parts of the door and sidelites at the top third of the door only. My husband pointed out that the kids would have trouble seeing out of high glass to see who might be knocking at the door. So then I started thinking about having full sidelites with a stained glass like this:
This gets a privacy rank of 4/10. They have some other more elaborate designs that give higher privacy (7/10) but I'm not super crazy about the designs.
Our house sits back about 160 feet from the street, and then when another house gets built across the street from us it would probably be another 100 or more feet to the next house.. So I don't think any future neighbors could really see us through the sidelights in our family room, but there is the weird sense you get when you sit in a room with lights on and it's dark outside and the blinds aren't closed (and of course sidelights don't have blinds to close!)
here is what i mean about the front door opening directly (via the foyer) to the great room:
illini-I like the one you have pictured here. I know you have said not a huge neighborhood right? 12-14 houses yes? Is it a no outlet sub so you don't have through traffic?
In our old neighborhood one of our neighbors had a door similar (not clear lites but some sort of pattern) with full length side lites and I always thought soooo pretty. But, as we were taking a walk in the neighborhood one day I realized just how much you could see in and it was a definite no go but I can imagine how much wonderful light they let in! So I think your concern is valid but if you don't get a lot of foot traffic or otherwise maybe no big deal? You are far enough off the road that it wouldn't seem you'd get many solicitors either.
My other thoughts if you go with 1/4 glass is that the kiddos are only going to grow and will be able to see out soon enough and until then they could always look through the pantry window to see who is there? I guess it depends on how frequently you get visitors.
If you want to be able to see out when needed but privacy otherwise, get sidelights and gather sheers, too and bottom over them so they can be pulled to the side to see who is at the door. Also, from visitor point of view, once they ring the bell they like to hear or see movement to know if someone is getting the door even if they can't see detail.
My house has a similar layout with full sidelights (clear glass) and the great room. The length of foyer is also similar. It's also a similar distance from the street and even sounds like a similar neighborhood--no through traffic and only 5 houses beyond ours. There are a few neighbors that will ride bikes or walk the street.
Privacy or even a weird feeling really have never been an issue. I would go with the ones you like best. I think the 4/10 privacy will be fine. Depending upon furniture layout you may not even see the front door.
thanks autumn for chiming in.....
yeah, that's what I'm afraid of. This particular pattern with a privacy level of 4 isn't super private. You've got the details correct: small (gated) neighborhood, no through traffic. Also our house is situated perhaps at the high point of the neighborhood. i really dont think foot traffic would be able to see much just due to the angle...I think it's more about avoiding any creepy exposed feelings even if no one is there (real or imaginary, lol).
I know for sure the 1/4 glass would make me *feel* more secure. We have a full sidelite now and I hate walking in front of it at night but we are situated where my neighbor across the street could easily see us *if* they were looking.
I'd get the glass you like, then if you feel overexposed do as Annie suggests and put some shirred top and bottom curtains on tension rods in the window frames.
We're in a gated community in the back of beyond in this community, on a circle where there are currently only 6 other homes. Unless one is going to one of those homes there is no reason to be back there. So I went with what I really wanted, and have a full glass front door w glass sidelights. Standing at the front door you can see all the way through our house to the pond out back. I hope I never develop a set of the heeby-jeebies from being exposed. But I'll also never be able to walk across the house naked!
illini-do you know of anyone that has the full lites that you could visit their home to get a feel for it from the inside and outside? I really think with no through traffic you would be okay. As for the heebys - well sometimes they just come but for the most part I bet you'd get used to it and be fine. Plus you are on a hill so that makes it even better.
With the level 4 can you just make out silhouettes but no faces, etc? I'd be okay if you could see shapes and obviously know it's a person but not be able to make out who it is and what they are wearing...
marjorie-hence our laundry room is now off our master closet instead of across the house. ;) That alleviates the "I left my clothes in the laundry room, UGH" problem. BUT the laundry/closet is front facing and also has a full window in it so it will need to be covered. There is always something!
We have a door similar to your inspiration pic, set back from the street, just inside the door are our stairs going up, and the foyer straight into family room. Privacy is not an issue from the street, but we don't hold bacchanalia, either! Seriously, tho...there is not a lot of foot traffic, mainly runners and dog walkers. We have a covered entry which helps privacy, and at night I turn on the porch light to equalize the light and prevent that "one way mirror" effect.
The door faces north, so the light is quite welcome int hat front hall. And, the cats love to sit, one at each sidelight, and watch the chipmunks.
Go for it!
Good points all around,
I am going to spend more time standing at the bottom of the street looking into the house to try to imagine what the views will be (somewhat difficult at the framing stage when there's just a big cutout for the front door. But perhaps I can get an idea of what could be seen. The main "activity" in the great room is sitting at the couch watching tv or having conversation. Much more activity in the kitchen which will be private from the front door views.
I like the idea that the porch light will equalize some of that effect.
I think I need to see the door glass in person. It's also comforting that I *could* add sheers, as long as that is possible with sidelights....i know the ones I have in my current home would not support tensions rods as the sidelight trim is angled inside and just not enough depth for it to be stable. Sounds like a visit to the door showroom is in order.
Light certainly is a consideration as well, having the door on the north, but then again with the tall south facing great room windows right across from that entry door I expect light to filter in all the way across during months when the sun is lower in the sky.
Thanks for the thoughtful inputs :)
We have glass on the top half of our side lites. They have wood mountains with a simple pattern. There is a small vestibule beyond the front door and its side lites are plain glass. We are very far from the street and its not possible to see anything from the road, but I do get paranoid when someone is at the door if I don't feel like answering. Thankfully we have an alarm letting us know if anyone is coming up the drive. I have no options for sheers because there is not enough depth to the side lites. In our old house we had wooden shutters over our side lites. Here we have so much privacy it's not a serious concern.
Rather than gathered sheers on tension rods, consider using swing arm rods, which are attached on one side, and swivel.
This makes it possible to clean the windows without removing the curtains from the rods. Likewise you can remove the curtains for cleaning without removing the rods.
And if you need to see who's at the door, you can swivel the rod a bit and peek out, without worrying about stretching the edge of the sheer.
My mother has used these on sidelights in two houses. She uses them top and bottom, which keeps the curtains gathered and in place along the entire window when the door is opened in windy conditions.
This particular one is adjustable; I'm not sure about hers:
This photo gives a better idea of how the rods are attached (and also shows a different type of curtain):

We're currently building a house and had similar concers.
I originally wanted a Craftsman style single door with sidelites and didn't care for many of the stained glass designs, yet I wanted privacy. I want to be able to occasionally walk through the house wearing little to nothing, I want to be able to lounge in the living room without worrying about the rare someone being able to peek in, and I don't want to feel compelled to answer the door if I don't want to for whatever reason.
We too needed an 8' tall door but couldn't get that with 1/4 glass sidelites in a non-custom door we liked, such as Therma Tru Classic Craft American, yet I didn't want to pay for a custom wood door because I'm going to paint it light blue.
I kept running into obstacles. So aggravating.
So after corresponding with a couple GWers about their Therma Tru Classic Craft American double doors about strength and safety issues, we went with that setup and added a video and voice doorbell so we can see and talk to whomever is at the door before answering. We get plenty of light above from the overhead dormer windows.
Good luck!
We have a similar version of that same door (one side light) and glass. It would ruin the attractiveness and effect of the stained glass to cover it with anything, especially curtains. In my old place, I had a plain glass side light with a sheer gathered curtain over it for privacy which looked fine. I think you need to decide which is more important to you, the look or the privacy.
With no wall between the foyer and great room, if someone comes to your front door, once you open it to talk to the person, (s)he will see almost everyone in the great room. Don't you ever sit around in pajamas, etc., where it would be somewhat awkward for someone at the door to see you/everyone? I'd play around with narrowing that opening from one side or both sides. We have a similar setup, but you can only see one chair from the front door, since there's only the one side light and the open doorway between the foyer and great room is about 4 or 4-1/2' wide.
I think you hit the nail on the head. We have to decide between one or the other. Light/look vs privacy. Pros and Cons.
I think one thing in my head which I haven't mentioned which is the whole reason I revisited the door decision was the that my special needs son likes to sit on the floor at the front door and look out of the sidelights. I feel like if we choose the door with the 1/4 glass that I'm taking it away from him sortof. And that other than those sidelights we don't have any views towards the front of the house.
It's hard to predict how I'm going to feel. Everything is reversed from our current house where the family room is at the front of the house with window views that way (and of course no privacy along with that).
So what do I want: more light and views to the front, or certain privacy? Not sure yet.
illinigirl, can you give your son another special spot to look out and watch the goings-on in front of the house? If not, personally I would do the sidelights. If he grows out of the habit after a few years and you decide you want more privacy, you could add privacy film (or even swap out the sidelights). But that is just me. I'm sure things will work out either way.

What is 'swatting'? - Chris Brown, Tom Cruise and Justin Bieber fall victim to the latest celebrity pranking craze
22 January 2013 08:48 AM
What do Tom Cruise, Kim Kardashian's mum, and now Chris Brown have in common? They have all been the victims of a rather unfunny practical joke pulled by a mysterious prankster.
According to celebrity gossip site TMZ an unidentified caller rang 911 yesterday afternoon, claiming that a couple were in a fight and the man had gone to another room to get a gun. LAPD sent a group of armed police (or SWAT team - hence the term "swatting") to the address, which turned out to be Chris Brown's. The report was false and Brown was not home at the time.
The case bears similarities to an incident last Friday when someone made a false report of a man with a gun at the home of Kim Kardashian's mother and stepfather, Kris and Bruce Jenner.
The same thing happened to Tom Cruise last week, when a SWAT team was dispatched to his luxury LA mansion, following a false report of a gunman. Other victims include Miley Cyrus, Simon Cowell and Justin Bieber.
The police are understandably irritated. Not only does the prank waste time, by diverting emergency service resources away from real emergencies, it could indirectly cause injury or even death.
So, is it all the same culprit? Or is Hollywood in the grip of a swatting epidemic?

Columbia Records has announced that it is preparing two releases to commemorate the Irish American rockers 1978 album "Darkness on the Edge of Town". The new releases will contain rare material from its recording session.
On November 16 they plan to release "The Promise: The 'Darkness on the Edge of Town' Story". This will contain three CDs and three DVDs that contain a re-mastered version of the album, 21 unreleased songs, a 1978 concert in Houston and a documentary about the album.
Also, on November 14, they will release a two-disc set called "The Promise" which will also contain unheard songs.
Just a couple of the unheard songs will include "Someday (We'll Be Together)," "The Brokenhearted," "Save My Love," "Ain't Good Enough For You," "It's A Shame," and "The Little Things (My Baby Does)."
Springsteen and E Street Band fans will be much relieved that these box sets are finally winging their way to the stores following years of rumors.

This is a real product. I swear. From the website:
"All the Cruzin Cooler needs is a designated driver. When the party is quite a ways from the parking lot, don't struggle with the cooler-drive it! Cruzin Cooler turns a large cooler into a motorized scooter, complete with power steering, disc brakes, and foot pedals. It's the easy way to transport food and drinks at sporting events or to the neighborhood barbecue. It maneuvers easily, clipping along up to 12-15 miles per hour. Cruzin Cooler has a 24-can capacity (with ice)."

I know you'll laugh, but I'd love one of those babies. It would be perfect for the July 4th celebration around here, where you park in Toledo and walk to the park for the fireworks. This is the answer to my prayers!
Locally, all I can imagine on it is THIS GUY. Before Razorback games. As far as frivolous purchases go, it's really not that expensive, for what it is. I bet Styro could rig one up herself a lot cheaper, though.
LOL, priceless. I dig this photo.
Certainly it must be legal to drink and drive this thing. I gotta have one.
I have my credit card out and ready.
Wow, now this would be a marvy way to ride into TequilaCon!
Ho. Lee. Shit. That is awesome.
now for your razorback tailgating the real question is how much of an incline can it handle?
Ooooh, good point!
I can see my boss buying a couple of these now. Sooooo soooo funny!
This is hilarious!
LOL this is great...too cute...hey, I bet it cuts down on accidents and injury...no worries about driving a car or truck under the influence and if you fall off the cooler, at least you dont have far to fall...lol
Seriously. I'm betting this is a bigger seller in the South than other regions. (But I bet they'd buy 'em up in Canada!)
I've seen them at a lot of conventions.
I would die.
im buyin this for my bro Adam!!! Cheers
thanks for the photo - used it on our blog, Blog of the Nation!

appraiser's comps, determination?
Hi all, I realize this may be a little out of place, but am hoping to find some appraisers on this board.
We are trying to refinance to take advantage of lower rates and do some work on our house (so a cash out refi). We had our appraisal done, and it came back shockingly low. This wasn't because our values have declined that much... but due to a relatively low number of comparables.
So, he picked 4 comps, all smaller than ours, and 2 additional ones that are listed on sites as shortsales or bank owned. The 2 listed in other places as shortsales he acknowledged in the report as "being listed as fixer uppers on the MLS" but he didn't say they were actually shortsales. And, 2 of the 6 total were only pending sales, not solds.
So, because of size, our house is more closely valued at the fixer/shortsale value per square foot (but I am told appraisers don't look at that value).
So, is it routine for appraisers to use short sales in their comp data without adjusting for it (he adjusted slimly for changes in sq ftage for example; and # of bathrooms. Is there not a similar adjustment for short sales)?
Our area isn't laden with short sales. It is a fairly stable neighborhood where houses are selling, though not many are for sale. So, there is a paucity of comps.
What can I do to "fight" the appraisal? Does that actually work?
What area/State are you in? We've been shopping for a house in Florida which has a lot of short-sales/foreclosures. We've had 2 appraisals done and neither used short sales nor foreclosures. We objected to one appraisal which included an active listing (made no sense to me) but we didn't follow through because we had other problems with the property.
I suppose you could pay for another appraisal or complain to the bank.
Sorry, couldn't be more helpful,
Short sales and bank owned properties ARE your comps. They are the "solds" that establish the overall values. You cannot say that your home is "worth" more than what is selling, even if there is not much for sale. There is no "fighting" a bank about an appraisal. They cannot cherry pick an appraiser to bring them back a certain number anymore. All appraisals must be at "arms length".
This isn't the smart time to do a cash out refi for any home project. If the house needs work, it should be done on a cash purchase basis with the savings that you will realize from the lower mortgage rate. Accept the appraisal for the refi, get the lower note, and move on. There are only two appraisals that really matter in the life of your home. One has to do with the taxes you are assessed, and the other has to do when you go to sell the home.
We have 400 sq feet of unfinished true second story space to finish out. When we are finished, we will have increased our square footage by 30%. For us, it makes sense to do the cash out, even if for the average homeowner it might not (I could see not taking cash out for improvements without additional square feet. This is an addition to the house that is already here, just needs to be finished).
We would rather take the cash out now, and use it to refinish (at this nice low rate) than to pay cash for it, and refi at the end when the rates might be higher. Though, I am not sure they will actually go up that much in the next year...
The problem with these "arms length" appraisers is that they now get selected from a "random" pool of appraisers, many of which come from areas that are pretty far away from the subject property. They don't know the towns and why one street is worth more than others. We recently refinanced and if we decided to sell today and price the house at the appraisers number we would be giving away about $500K. We went from one bad appraisal system to another with its own flaws.
Don't even get me started on appraisers.
Here in FL, distressed sales are not supposed to be used as comps. Because of the very low number of recent sales, our latest appraisal last year, did list a few extra homes, including distressed, in the appraisal package; they just weren't used for the comp. She also threw out a normal sale for a normal home that sold for quite a bit above the norm ($460K - quite a bit less than 2008 prices - vice average prob $350K). There was no justification for throwing out this sale, the latest one, just an arbitrary throw-out. Also one of the short sales would have helped our appraisal because it was about $30K higher, but couldn't be used.
He just did an awful job of actually doing his job. He didn't look into anything. And, now, I get to do his work for him. I will only hope that my comps are reasonable enough for him to "admit he was wrong" and adjust the appraisal. I think I will be really lucky though to get this "Ken" to accept he was extremely low. (I am calling him Ken because he looked just like Ken of Ken/Barbie... that is what I am up against.)
Literally the house behind or next to the house he used which is really bringing down our numbers sold for 100K more just a month previous. I don't know why he didn't use THAT one (or why it was omitted). It is the exact floor plan, in reverse. But, it wasn't a "hoarder's house painted green and red with red shag carpet that smelled and with pictures glued to walls and appliances." (That is what the listing agent said about the low ball house). He took every low house he could find, including 2 pendings instead of actual solds.
We had nothing to lose (no out of pocket costs or anything) to have the bank request a review of the appraisal.
We had to provide the bank with at least 3 additional comps in our neighborhood that sold in the last 6 months, ideally 3 months (I provided 5 or 6). We had to include in our letter, as completely as possible, any errors we found.
Well, our appraisal evaluation came back (took about 1 month instead of the 3 days the first one took). He raised our valuation by 40,000. Which puts it to within 5000 of what I had told the bank I thought it was worth based on an appraisal from 2009.
I am shocked, but very thankful. We will sign all our documents in the next week.

Elvis renews my wedding vows
Monday, April 13, 2009 | 6 years ago
On April 9, I experienced my dream wedding, a quarter-century after the fact. On the occasion of our 25th wedding anniversary, my wife Deb and I renewed our wedding vows in Las Vegas with a little help from the King of Rock and Roll -- or at least the one who rules at VivaLasVegasWeddings.com, whose logo is all over the photos in the following slideshow. Nonetheless, you'll have no trouble viewing the tender love.

Hope you like it!

Die Kommunikation mit Anna war sehr einfach und freundlich. Zudem hat sie sich sehr flexibel bzgl. meiner Anreisezeit gezeigt. Die Wohnung liegt perfekt und war in einem gepflegten Zustand.
Anna and her brother were great hosts and I could always ask them when I had questions/troubles. Thanks a lot and see you soon :)
Wir hatten ein tolle Zeit in der Wohnung von Anna. Allein der Kontakt zu ihr war unkompliziert, überaus freundlich und sie war stets sehr hiflsbereit, sodass alles reibungslos verlief. Wir durften in der Wohnung alles mitbenutzen, was wirklich toll war, denn man fühlte sich dadurch fast wie zu Hause. Das Viertel hat sehr viel Charme und wir haben es immer sehr genossen Abends nach einem Strandtag und dem sehr quirrligen Zentrum nach Gracia zu fahren, wo es alles etwas entspannter und ruhiger zuging. Auch Touristen sind dort eher weniger. Wir haben uns für die Zeit Fahrräder gemietet, was ich jedem empfehlen würde. Denn die Stadt lässt sich so am schönsten erkunden.
We spent 5 wonderful days in Barcelona. Anna's appartment is perfectly situated for a city tour and near to the metro. We found everything clean and tidy and WLAN worked fast. In all we gladly recommend this accomodation.
My sister and I had a good time staying here. We didn't actually meet Anna since she was abroad at the time but she was very helpful at keeping in touch if we needed any help and her brother was able to meet us to give us the keys.
Marta who lives at the apartment was nice and easy to get along with. This apartment is only a 4min walk to the metro station(Fontana) and when we knew the area better we were able to walk to a lot of places.
I will warn you that this apartment is on the 3rd/4th floor of the building and the stairs up aren't the most even but that didn't bother us.
Overall this was a really good and convenient place to stay and we're happy with our first airbnb experience.
Ana's apartment is really nice and she is a very kind person. We found the apartment very clean and it is very close to the center of Barcelone, and there are supermarkets and metro stations around. We were alone at the apartment during out stay, which was very nice ! We definitely recommend that place to everyone.
We liked the flat very much!
It was bright, stylish, our room was cosy & nice.
In the common room we enjoyed watching films at a very soft sofa
Don't expect to see a modern flat: the furniture is new but the house is old. I think it's a plus because the architecture is great and the ceilings are hight. We loved it!
Also we liked the district: Gracia is really awesome! A lot of bars, cafes, shops, impressing squares (placa del Sol, Gracia) and of course unforgatable architecture. We fell in love with this district!
Anna's flat is situated in a great location: we got to the city center by foot. Sagrada Familia and Parc Guell aren't very far too.
Most of the time we were alone at the apartment but when we met Anna, she was very sociable and friendly. Her tips were very helpful.
Indeed, every thing was great! Some people write about street noise - it's true, but we didn't pay attention because at an end of a day we were always tired )
P.S. Can't say I enjoyed the terrace but that's just because I dislike pigeons ))
Personalmente, el ruido del tráfico de la calle me resulta molesto, aunque no sea una vía principal.
Por otra parte, la terraza es un gran desahogo y ella muy amable
Viajé a Barcelona con mi novia, y nos quedamos en el piso de Anna por unas 6 noches.
Está en el corazón del barrio de Gracia, con un montón de bares, plazas con terrazas, y a un paso del Paseo de Gracia donde puedes empezar un buen paseo hacia el centro.
El piso está en un 3º sin ascensor, con mucha luz, y con una decoración que hace sentirse muy a gusto. La habitación que alquila da de sobra para dos personas, con muebles donde dejar la ropa y cosas personales.
Es amplio, y además tiene una terracita muy guay donde desayunar/comer al solecito :)
Anna nos cayó muy bien, muy simpática y agradable, a pesar de que no la vimos todos los días, nos aconsejó también sitios donde ir.
Sin duda, volvería de nuevo a este sitio.
The room was just as expected : clean and comfortable.
We enjoyed the terrace for breakfast and lunch in the evening.
The bathroom is huge and very convenient.
The apartement is very well located in a nice neighborhood (I particularly recommend the placa de diamand nearby).
You can walk to the Park Guell and also to the Pedrera (the casa Mila).
The subway station is just round the corner, which is GREAT!
Anna is a great host. We met her on our arrival.
She is very sociable and helpful.
Tourist guides were available in our room.
She was away from home during our stay in her flat. So we had the whole flat for ourselves.
Departure time was flexible and giving the keys back was very easy.
Thank you Anna!!
Anna and her friend are wonderful persons and spectacular guests.
They were most respectful of my property, leaving it clean and tidy when they left.
They are always joyful and friendly! Highly recommend!!!
Muchas Gracias Anna!

World no. 3 Roger Federer expressed his delight in winning his 80th career title at the Cincinnati Masters on Sunday, defeating David Ferrer 6-3, 1-6, 6-2. The Swiss now proceeds to the final Grand Slam of the season after bagging his 16th win without a loss against Ferrer for over an 11-year period. Federer added his third title for the year to those he got in Halle and Dubai early in 2014.
Only Ivan Lendl with 94 titles and Jimmy Connors with 109 titles have more ATP titles than Federer, who now has 80 and Federer claimed that his victory isn't for the mantelpiece anymore but for his family.
One of the remarkable things about the Swiss tennis superstar is the fact that he can function as an elite tennis player at age 33 while leading a normal family life as his priority.
"I finally got a big trophy for the kids," he said on Sunday after taking home the Cincy title, according to The Guardian. "I've been bringing home some smaller ones. I keep telling them they are still trophies but this one should satisfy them."
Meanwhile, Federer has been seeded number 2 for the US Open with the reigning Wimbledon champion and world no. 1 Novak Djokovic as number one seed.
In the event that Federer and Djokovic reach the final of 2014 Grand Slam tournament, they would have a rematch at this year's Wimbledon Championships final, which was won by Djokovic in a five-set thriller.
Federer is seeded at the US Open for the 14th consecutive year, tying Ivan Lendl with only Jimmy Connors ahead of them for the longest streak in the Open Era. For the past four years, Djokovic reached the US Open final and won the title in 2011.
On the other hand, the current US Open champion Rafael Nadal has withdrawn from the tournament due to a right wrist injury from practice.

wicking material for self watering containers
I have been playing with wicks for use in self watering containers. I have a roll of drain tile sock (4 inch black slotted pvc pipe). This "sock" goes over the drain tile to keep to it clean.
I tested a small piece with a 2 liter soda bottle. I drilled 2 small holes in the bottle cap, filled the bottle with water and turned it upside down on the sock. The sock was as long as the bottle. I propped the sock up so that it was high as the bottle. The sock "wicked" very well.
My second test was with a soda bottle cut in half. I pulled a piece of the sock through the bottle cap opening and tied a knot. I turned the top upside down and stuck it into the bottom half and filled with potting mix. I watered the mix and I have a sweet potato slip planted. So far so good. The mix is moist.
Third test
I took a 1 gallon trade size pot that has a few holes on the sidea and one on the bottom. I ran the sock through the bottom hole about 2 inches. I pulled the sock up the sides of the pot to the top edge. Filled the pot with mix and soaked the mix. I placed the pot into a cut off milk jug and watered from the bottom. This one I planted 5 shallot sets (bulb) in.
So far so good. The sock stays wet to the touch and mix is moist. (shallots shot up about 5 inches in a week).
Fourth test
I took a small planter box, plastic planter from the dollar store which is 6 by 16 by about 5.5 inches deep. I drilled a 1/2 hole and ran the drain tile sock throught the hole. Inside there is about 2 inches of material and outside there is about 4 inches.
I have the planter up on a ledge on the deck. I thought Al had said something about having containers up off the ground a couple of inches. Anyway there is a 5 gallon bucket under the planter to catch the water.
I filled the planter and then soaked the mix and within a couple of minutes the water started draining into the bucket. After a day, I planted some shallots in the planter. The sock has stayed wet and drips form time to time. As a further test, I took a 2 liter softdrink bottle and drilled 2 small hoes in the cap and filled the bottle with and placed in the mix to see what happens. After a couple of minutes after pacing the bottle in, the water started to drip again and the stopped.
Been 2 days now and the bottle sides get sucked in as there is a vacuum as the mix pulls the water. I have refilled the bottle once. Through out this test the drain tile sock material stays wet and drips some but not much.
fifth test
Same planter box as test number three. This time I took a snall drink bottle about 20 oz. I hink and put a small slit in the side about an inch long. Filled the bottle and placed on the mix with slit sidw down in the mix. So far same as test 3. Drain tile sock stays wet and drips into the bucket below.
I think that the material shows good signs of being a good wicking material. Next test will be with the botlle underneath with the wick going from the bottle up into the planter.
Well what do you guys think?
I think we have another mad scientist at work/play! Keep up the good work & keep reporting what you find. I'm certain you're learning things that are helpful & getting a more intimate feel for how water behaves in soils ..... which is only going to play out as being decidedly in your favor!
Test#1 completed The drain tile sock appears to wick very well.
Test#2 Continues to go well. The sweet potato is growing and is about 2-3 inches. It gets moved outdoors and the weather permits. This week will dump the water and fill with fresh.
Test#3 Completed and went well. The shallots were removed and transplanted in a raise garden bed. They were about 7 inches tall when transplanted.
Test#4 Continues very well. The drain sock continues to pull water from the planter. The 2 liter fill bottle continues and soil pulls the water as needed. This planter has stayed outside on the deck.
Test#5 Wind blew the small 20 bottle away when it was almost empty. Worked well when it was there. wick continued to pull water from the mix.
So far the drain tile sock material appears to be working well. The material is made of 100% polyester fabric.
I will continue the tests and add some more as time goes on.
I started using SWC wicks made from synthetic mop material last year with very good results. I use the same mop Al Tapla recommends for wicking excess water out of containers (Mainstays brand at WalMart). I like them in my bucket SWCs because it's easy to adjust the amount of wicking (even after plant is in place) by adding or removing wicks. This year I want to try using binder clips to temporarily 'cut off' wicks until they're needed. I also like the fact that the soil buckets remain flat on the bottom so it's easy to move them around, work on, sit on the ground without worrying about crushing a wicking cup. I use my SWC's as top watered containers at first (until the plants get well established), and the wicks really help drain excess moisture out at the early stage. Peppers and Eggplants did best last year with 2 wicks, tomatoes in 5 gallon buckets 4, and cucumbers needed 8! (possibly more-or a better wicking mix).
Keep up the experiments!

Phantasy Star Online
So I'm pretty sure my time played wasn't correct.
I had a HUnewearl that I ran with forever up until like Lv 112. I was remembering how much time I played with her and I jumped on my Mass Effect 3 manifest and it says I've logged over 500 hours on that. I know I haven't put anywhere near the time in to ME3 MP as I did this game. Do the hour counters roll-over, if anyone knows for sure? By my best guess I'd have put in a minimum of triple the amount of time into that one character as I have ME. Just something odd I noticed.

Is that cynicism? On the internet? Grow up, I have no time for your elitist attitude. Come back when you can be useful.
Never noted any discrepancies in my times logged on any version of PSO save for PC PSO, that was only due to a glitch caused by the patch that was needed to play that version on a specific unofficial server.
As for the time played timer resetting itself, perhaps at the ten-thousand hour mark, but I left off nearly nine thousand hours shy from knowing that for sure.
Welcome To The Next Level---SEGA
Eish, I can't say I did that many with any confidence. I just know it was well over the 300 I remember it showing. I worked overnights and on my 3 days (nights) off all I did was play PSO and also played it for about 3 hours each night (morning) I came home.

I'm trying to extract from a table the value that appears the maximum number of times for each distinct value of a different field. For example, if the data set was:
a x
a x
a y
b x
b y
c x
c y
c y
the query would yield
a x 2
b x 1
c y 2
My experiments use the following:
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `maxcount` (
`what` varchar(1) DEFAULT NULL,
`loc` varchar(1) DEFAULT NULL
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;
INSERT INTO `maxcount` (`what`, `loc`) VALUES
('a', 'x'),
('a', 'x'),
('a', 'y'),
('b', 'x'),
('b', 'y'),
('c', 'x'),
('c', 'y'),
('c', 'y');
The first part is easy:
select what, loc, count(loc) howmany from maxcount group by what, loc;
What I haven't yet figured out is how to use this to get one row for each "what" showing the value of loc that has the maximum count and value of the maximum.
The solution is NOT:
select what, loc, max(howmany) from (
select what, loc, count(loc) howmany from maxcount group by what, loc)
A group by what;
Because it yields:
a x 2
b x 1
c x 2
Your guidance gratefully accepted!

Artisan: Tuareg peoples, Africa
Tuareg is a term used to identify numerous groups of nomadic peoples of the Sahara Desert who share a common language and history.
The Tuareg are matrilineal, meaning that issues such as inheritance and nobility are passed down through the mother's side. Because of this, Tuareg women hold unusually autonomous positions in their society. Since they travel much of the year, the Tuareg don't carry many large possessions, instead concentrating the majority of their wealth into small items such as jewelry.
For millennia, Tuareg caravans have crossed the Sahara, connecting the Mediterranean coast of Africa to great trade centers on the southern edge of the desert. The Tuareg people continue to make jewelry and crafts in much the same way that they have for generations.

Weekend Going Out Look: Citizens of Humanity Rocket in London's Calling
For my weekend going out look this week, I wanted to do something monochrome as I'm loving that combination at the moment. I chose these gorgeous Citizens of Humanity Rocket skinny jeans in London's Calling as I have adored the wash for ages, then paired them with this classic Pierre Balmain Tuxedo blazer which I layered over a simple white GAP tank top.
For the accessories, I wanted to make it a bit more edgy and dramatic which is why I chose the famous Valentino Rockstud heels in black and this Givenchy Shark Tooth necklace in silver to add even more toughness. Since I didn't want this entire outfit to be without colour though, I finished it off with this pretty Charlotte Olympia Pandora Box Clutch in metallic blue. Isn't it gorgeous? This is definitely something I would wear myself!
Selena Gomez in Citizens of Humanity Rocket Jeans in Crispy
Selena Gomez made her way through the hoards of paparazzi at LAX Airport after arriving on a flight from Charles de Gaulle in Paris, France.
Selena wore a pair of Citizens of Humanity Rocket high rise skinny jeans in Crispy with a printed top, combat boots and a fringed jacket for the flight. I have these exact jeans and I definitely know why Selena loves them for travelling, they are extremely soft and comfortable! Buy these jeans online at Citizens of Humanity for $218.

Suki Waterhouse in Citizens of Humanity Rocket in Porter
Suki Waterhouse was spotted heading to the Chiltern Firehouse in London for a night out. The actress wore her favorite Citizens of Humanity Rocket in Porter with a fringed bed jacket and some studded sneakers.
We have seen Suki dress these up previously, but this look here has to be the most casual that we have ever seen her style them. I actually like the look a lot as the pieces really compliment each other well. It makes me think of Nicole Richie's style a couple of years back with the pairing of the fringe jacket and earthy style boots. You can click here to purchase these jeans from SHOPBOP for $238.

Suki Waterhouse in Citizens of Humanity Rocket Jeans in Porter
Suki Waterhouse was all smiles as she left the Le Peep Boutique opening in London. The model wore her current favorite pair of Citizens of Humanity Rocket jeans in Porter to pair with a pale pink coat and some towering ankle boots.
I like that Suki's style has that perfect mix of tomboy streetwear and femininity. It is almost like she found the perfect medium between the Delevingne sisters. She is definitely one that I look forward to seeing more of. You can click here to purchase these jeans from SHOPBOP for $238.

Are buckeye and horsechestnut trees related?
They are blooming in early summer i.e. now. The relatively small tree, I believe is a buckeye, has such lovely and visible pink to reddish flower-heads.
Posted by Huggorm none (My Page) on Fri, May 24, 13 at 11:48
Posted by flora_uk SW UK 8/9 (My Page) on Fri, May 24, 13 at 12:25
Thank you so much for your clarification. So, I assume the recently developed, lovely red flowering ones are hybrids ...
The red comes from Aesculus pavia (Red Buckeye). When crossed with Aesculus hippocastanum (European Horsechestnut), you get the pinky-red flowers varieties of Aesculus x carnea.
They are not so new...first cross was probably in 1820 and the first named variety in 1858 (Briotii).
you could have googled both common terms... and you would have found that the first latin name.. on both.. as noted ... is Aesculus
and that alone would tell you they are related ...
the second latin name.. would define how close.. and the also define your further questions ....
once you had the full latin.. you could then look to the native ranges.. and therein most likely find the geographic differences ...
What does buckeye really mean in English? Does the word originally mean the eye of a buck?
I did some Googling and the word seems to mean things in America.
I want to ask flora-uk: what does "buckeye" mean in classical British English before May Flower arrived in America?
The photos you posted are of A x carnea.
"Buckeye" means exactly what it implies...the nut resembles a buck's eye.
Presumably, the British would have chosen the name Buckeye as well for the European Horsechestnut had there been more deer and fewer horses.
The name "Horsechestnut" is thought to have origins in the curative properties the nuts appeared to have when horses ate them. Despite that observation, the nuts are mildly toxic to horses.
You want to try eating horsechestnuts or buckeyes? Let us know how they are... (hint: this might be a good time to start utilizing the power of Google)
Posted by smivies z5b ontario (My Page) on Mon, Jun 3, 13 at 14:51
Thank you so much for the thorough answers, If that is the case, I probably would not try then =) I Googled and learned that the buckeye and horse chestnut are extremely bitter if tried directly.
This post was edited by jujujojo on Mon, Jun 3, 13 at 15:21
The name Buckeye is not used in Britain, except when referring to American species. A hippocastanum, the commonest here, is referred to either as a horse chestnut or a conker tree.
Here is a link that might be useful: Toxicity of Aesculus
Posted by smivies z5b ontario (My Page) on Sat, Jun 8, 13 at 11:26
Thank you so much. I have a few questions, thank you for your patience:
1. Are the leaves of A. hippocastanum and A. pavia slightly different? Shape, size, color, etc.
2. Are the shapes of flowers different? Could you describe the difference?

'Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince' will be published in most regions July 16
US Publisher Scholastic have announced the biggest ever print run for the new J.K. Rowling novel "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince."
The sixth book in the series is due out on July 16 and the publisher plans a massive print run of 10.8 million copies, which is 4 million more than "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" had in 2003.
A spokeswoman for the publisher said: "We know, based on past experience, that readers will want a copy the minute it goes on sale."
"We wanted to be ready so that every single child, every single person who started out with Harry Potter when it began and every family that wants multiple copies will be able to get them," she added.
Speculation over the content of the book is rife with some bookmakers offering odds on which character will be bumped off. Pre-sales at online stories such as Amazon have also been massive, the book hitting he top of their chart months before it is due out.
