Evolution Of A Bedroom
Blerg. I either have food poisoning or a stomach bug today. But thanks for all the stool love this morning, guys (wait, that sounds kinda gross). And as for this afternoon, while I attempt to avoid breathing on anyone else in this house (who are all thankfully unscathed so far), I thought it might be fun to create a little "timeline" of how each room in our house has evolved, since it's definitely never an overnight transformation around here. And given our copious bedroom updates, we thought it was a fine place to start. So without further ado, here's how the room has evolved over the last twenty months since we moved in. It's still not done, but it has definitely come a long way – and it's really fun to look back on some of those "middle" stages and wonder what the heck we were thinking. Haha. Thank goodness for trial and error!
This rundown is a pretty great reminder that small changes (along with a few big ones) can really breathe new life into a room as you learn what you love and how you'd like to live. We've actually come to a place where we wholeheartedly believe that over-time tweaks are half the fun (I'd probably want to move every year if I could only do a room once and then had to live in that frozen-in-time-result without changing a thing). So here's the very first shot of our bedroom that we shared the day we moved in. Pretty much a blank canvas.
First we just plopped our furniture down on the floor and didn't even have a bed for the first three weeks or so. Getting up every morning from a ground-height mattress = not our fondest memory.
Then we got Ed the Bed since we were overwhelmingly excited to have such a giant room to work with (our old bedroom was around 10 x 11′ and this room is 16 x 16′ – so we thought something big and frame-y would look awesome in our cavernous room).
Then we got this duvet on clearance from West Elm, but John only let me get it under the stipulation that we would ebay it if we found something we liked more down the line. Hindsight = 20/20. We never should have settled and definitely should have held out for something we both loved. Oh well, live and learn. Right now it's neatly folded in our playroom just in case we decide to use it/the fabric for some other space (curtains for Clara's big girl room, etc). Otherwise it'll definitely hit ebay someday.
Next came our big ol' snowball of a chandelier, which is still one of our favorite things to stare up at before bed or squint up at in the early morning. Here it is hanging oddly low thanks to that top bar of Ed the Bed (it looks crazier in this pic than it did in person, but it still wasn't quite right).
We struggled with Ed for a while, tweaking him to remove those top posts since they were just too encroach-y with the chandelier. Oh and we got a nice big jute rug to cozy up the splintery old wood floor. Here's that phase.
Then we found two Alaskan botanical prints at a yard sale (we honeymooned in Alaska, so we thought they were sweet for our bedroom) and hung them on either side of the bed with Ramsey in the middle.
Things pretty much stagnated there for a while until Ramsey was broken during a book shoot (he jumped off the wall in the kitchen when no one was even in there) and we decided to hang the botanicals inside the bed posts instead. And then we found our new rug at a local outlet, so we pulled the old rug out (with plans to use it under our dining table or in our sunroom eventually – or craigslist it if we don't like it in either space down the line). Our new super-discounted outlet rug definitely breathed life back into this stuck/stagnating room. So grateful. Sometimes it takes changes like this to jump-start things again once you've hit a wall.
Then in a flurry of trying new things, we gave three different prints (picked up for $2.99 from Ikea a while back) above the bed along with different pillows from around the house…
… only to decide we preferred the botanicals and another pillow combination (along with some lamps that we actually bought for the bedroom instead of just using leftovers from our first house's living room).
Then we finally put on our big kid pants and decided to just give the bed a try on a wall that we previously thought would be way too challenging (thanks to an off-centered window on one side and a nook on the other side). At first it looked crazytown…
But after we re-hung some art/rearranged some furniture that we already had, we ended up here.
And then we gave Ed a little haircut.
And then we made an upholstered headboard to cozy things up a little more.
Next we finally painted the walls a darker color (Rockport Gray by Ben Moore) which definitely helped the headboard and all the thick white trim pop (John wanted to do it for months and he finally wore me down). Boy was right. We love it so much more in this moodier sleepier color.
It's especially noticeable how much the new color accents the chunky white trim around the sink nook. Such a difference!
Of course we still have plans to:
- refinish the floors
- possibly paint the ceiling a light light blue color
- furnish the entire bare wall across from the bed
- eventually turn a window into a door that leads out onto the deck
- someday vault the ceiling so it's sweetly peaked (how cozy would that be?)
… so we'll have to keep you posted. But it's pretty interesting to look back at all of these phases of evolution, sort of like a time capsule of where we were, where we were trying to go, and where we are now.
Actually when we look back in our archives, every single room in our first house evolved the same way – moving things around, using what we had, altering things to work, getting new things along the way, and hitting up lots of outlets and thrift stores along with affordable retailers like Ikea and Target to keep things wallet friendly. Did we make mistakes? Sure! Did we learn as we went. Absolutely! If we could rewind would we skip all of those wrong moves? Who wouldn't! But it's pretty cool that even with those mistakes, you can come pretty far (and learn a ton about yourself and what ya love) by just giving things a shot and letting a room evolve over time. Sometimes over a long a$$ time. Haha. But the journey is part of the fun, right? Our first house took us 4.5 years to figure out, so maybe we're getting a tiny bit faster in this one?
Although some other rooms are completely untouched, so maybe not. Haha.
It's funny how some things stayed, like:
- Ed the bed (although he did get that trim)
- our free hand-me-down dresser from John's parents
- our leaning mirror (which John got me as a wedding present back in 2007)
- our $50 Ikea chandelier
Meanwhile, other stuff came in from other rooms, like:
- the Hobby Lobby mirror that used to hang in the living room
- that small white cabinet from the dining room
And other items went out, like:
- the old rug
- the old side tables (both of which we'll reuse or craigslist for loot to put back into other tweaks)
Thankfully even things like those old too-small yard sale side tables were just $11, and we'll probably get to use those in Clara's big girl room (and can always resell them for at least that much) so it's a good lesson that just because you buy things, you don't have to be married to them. Undoing something like a paint color or an upholstery fabric can take a day of work, but it's hardly irreversible. And it just might be the key to making it through a not-sure-where-we're-going phase and onto another love-it-so-much-more phase. Heck, even if over time you realize that a furnishing or accessory isn't the best choice for a room, there are definitely other rooms where they can go to live (like our blue stool story from this morning). We love keeping things flexible and taking a completely reversible approach to making our house a home. It's just so much less intimidating and final than having some unspoken can't-make-mistakes rule (even if you wait for years between decisions, there's no guarantee that you'll love each choice- sometimes you just have to live and learn).
It's fun to see all of these bedroom evolution pics on one page, right? So stay tuned as we slowly work our way through all of our other rooms (probably on and off over the next few months – or years if we fall off) just to see where they've been and where they're going. The goal would be to keep these posts updated as we go, and to link to them from our House Tour page – or another page called Room Evolutions – so anyone who wants to see details on a specific room could click on that room and see these rundowns with a bunch of links to all the projects during those different phases (a number of readers have actually requested that we group room updates that way).
Have you ever snapped photos of a room over time as it evolved? Did it take more than one paint color to get it right? Were you surprised to see what stayed and what went? Were you shocked at how much of a difference some free changes like rearranging the floor plan or tweaking furniture (like cutting Ed's posts) can make? Did little homemade touches (like an upholstered headboard) end up making all the difference? I think our DIY headboard along with our giant pineapple-based lamps are our favorite things in the room these days.
What's your favorite thing in your bedroom?
Psst- This month we're making a trip out to visit John's grandma in Huntington, WV, so if anyone has an awesome house that they'd like us to crash (a la these) in either Huntington or Charleston WV, we'd love to check out your digs and hopefully stop by (just send your submission pics to email@example.com). Woot!

LOVE this post, and the whole "room evolution" concept! I am trying to do the same thing – taking pictures of our home in stages, so we can see where we started, and how far we've come.
question for you!! our wall colors and lighting always seems to look like your (1st)"blank canvas" shot: yellowish. but your very 2nd pic where you laid your furniture down looks so much WHITER and BRIGHTER! so, my question is, did you actually paint the room white/off-white? or.. is it simply because those original blinds were taken down, the lights were off, and natural sunlight was coming in?? such a stark difference! wish my rooms could look this crisp and white in real life and in my (iphone) pics!
oh wow! thanks so much! guess it also helps to start off with WHITE walls… ours are beige to begin with. thought those walls were a beige in your "blank canvas" picture. i want white walls for sure now. it's decided. oh…i have to ask the husband? what? haha
Take some time to be sick and watch a movie and relax!! I feel guilty reading a blog post that you wrote when you should have been taking a sick day!!
This was really helpful to read. I watch too much HGTV so I always feel like when I decorate, I have to decorate to a solid end point where I'm "done" with the room? Your website has been so helpful in helping me see that the process is important and a room is always changing.
One question: is it ever difficult to purchase items, knowing that perhaps they won't end up being permanently used in your decorating scheme? I struggle quite a bit with this problem–I overthink a purchase until I end up just walking away.
I can't figure out how to respond to your comment so I'll respond to myself!
This absolutely helps! (And thank you for giving me an answer while you're not feeling well! I'm hoping you have a speedy recovery!)
I hope you feel better soon Sherry!
So great, thanks for sharing – we moved in our place 2 months ago and already rooms have had several lives. Anyway, for selfish reasons I cast my vote for you guys to replace the window with a door. I'm planning on doing something similar in our bedroom, and would LOVE to see how you tackle it first!
Feel better!
Are you still considering raising the ceiling? That sounded like such a fun idea!
while everyone else fights over the bedside tables, I call dibs on the West Elm duvet cover….let me know if you ever list it on ebay!
(and feel better Sherry! be sure to stay hydrated)
When you move pictures/wall hangings, how do you deal with the leftover holes? Do you spackle and paint over, and just hope you can't tell there was a touch-up? One specific example is where the Alaskan pictures were above the side tables after you moved them to above the bed. I'm always so nervous to hang because I'm worried any kind of touch-up will be noticeable.
What about the paint blending in? Is it just the paint finish you use, or is there a specific way you paint to cover up without being noticeable, especially at eye level (rather than just painting a medium circle where the spackle is, do you do long strokes, etc.)?
Ugh – being sick is never fun. Hope you feel better.
I absolutely love the hardwood floors in your bedroom – they are GORGEOUS!!!!
This post could not have come at a better time! I had my husband hang some curtains I made from a duvet cover in our bedroom yesterday, and to my disappointment they just didn't work. I spent about ten minutes being upset that I spent money on something that didn't work (I'm in grad school and money is hard to come by around these parts), then I got up and started rearranging. Now some pillows and the rugs from our bedroom are in our living room (looking lovely) and my new curtains are up in the bedroom (where they work much better now). And I didn't have to get anything new to make it work! Thank for the reminder that these things are a process, and sometimes you have everything you need right infront of you!
And my favorite thing in our bedroom… Vintage bird prints I had framed for my office. They look a million times better over our bedside tables!
I am totally swooning over your bedroom right now! I love the rug the most!? Where is it from?
Aw, feel better!
Great post, you guys…I've loved your blog since about 2007 when I discovered it in its "toddler" stages! You guys are amazing. Love to see the inspiring transformations and funny DIY moments.
See…even from the brink of a stomach bug, you inspire us!
Hope you feel better soon, and that the rest of the family stays well. And I love how you show us that rooms and decisions can change as you go along – and that it's nothing to be afraid of.
The room looks great guys, but have you read this recent survey? Make sure you check out the last line.
When will you release your book tour dates and places? Hoping you make it to Southern California!
Love this progression. Question, do you still have that rocking chair?
Our bedroom is also evolving, just not in a good way! It started out quaint – we are newlyweds. A few pictures, pretty bedding, cool arm chair and night stand, lamps with matching lightbulbs (finally – for a while, one shone white and one shone yellow!), etc. Now we are expecting a baby and our office has moved into our bedroom to make room for a nursery! Enter giant desk, THREE BOOKSHELVES, and the most awkward placement of a dog crate ever. Oh well – baby girl's new room is going to be super cute, so I'll just spend more of my time in there!
I noticed you've mentioned Clara's big girl room a few times. A moodboard for that would be fun!
We have a little corner on the living room that I could not figure out forever what to do with and it drove me crazy. One day a few weeks ago it dawned on me that we had a small bookshelf/closed storage unit in our upstairs closet that was being used for storing random sports items. I brought it downstairs, accessorized with books and a plant, and it looks fantastic! I was giddy for days. It is amazing what you can do with what you already have!
I have to say it, but following up a sentence about the stomach bug with a sentence about "stool love" made me giggle. :)
I love this room evolution idea. It is interesting to see how everything evolves. It also gives me hope since I am in the beginning stages at my own place.
Hi guys! Love your blog. Kind of addicted!
Anyway, just was wondering if you've ever considered switching your bed to be on the opposite wall that it is now. Then John wouldn't have to reach around the corner to turn the light off. Obviously you wouldn't see your pretty headboard right from the door, but it might be nice…
You're sick too? I was in DC this weekend and I think I caught a stomach bug myself… must be going around. Hope you feel better too!
I love your leather ottoman at the end of the bed! Where is it from?
Looks great- I'm also anxious to see the "mystery wall!" I know you used to have it in your paint colors section, but what was the color paint you used before you reprinted in Rockport Gray??

NASCAR panel upholds RCR penalties
A NASCAR appeals panel on Friday upheld the penalties for two Richard Childress Racing Nationwide crew members who are also facing criminal charges for fighting with Nelson Piquet Jr. at Richmond International Raceway last month.
Thomas Costello and Michael Scearce of driver Brian Scott's team were both suspended for four Nationwide Series races and fined $15,000 each. The suspensions begin next week at Dover. The two will be able to return in late June at Kentucky, NASCAR spokesman Kerry Tharp said.
Tharp said suspension was put off until next week because ''we're already well into a race weekend at Charlotte Motor Speedway.'' The Nationwide Series' History 300 will take place Saturday, and Scott's team is eighth in series points.
RCR chief operating officer Torrey Galida said he was unsure whether his organization will appeal the ruling by the three-person panel. He said RCR appealed the original decision because it thought the NASCAR penalties were excessive.
''We thought it was unfair that we were penalized twice both with criminal action and the penalty from NASCAR,'' Galida said.
The altercation happened long after Scott and Piquet tangled on the track and then on pit road after the race. Scott approached Piquet, and Piquet shoved him and kicked Scott in the groin. Piquet tweeted later after the race a friend of his hurt his shoulder in the fight with the RCR crew members, whom team owner Richard Childress claimed ''were walking to their cars and words were exchanged with members from another team, which led to an altercation.''
Piquet also made light of kicking Scott.
''Afterwards on pit road, my first reaction was to defend myself. I had no intent to break the code,'' he posted on Twitter. ''With that kick, no wonder I race cars and not play soccer.''
Henrico County police charged Scearce with two counts of misdemeanor assault. Costello received one count of misdemeanor assault. Galida said both men have a court date in late June.
NASCAR cited Costello and Scearce for ''actions detrimental to stock car racing. Involved in an altercation with another competitor after the race had concluded,'' as reason for their punishment. Scearce is listed as a mechanic for Scott's team while Costello is listed as an interior specialist. The two are on probation through Dec. 31.
Piquet and Scott, meanwhile, are also on probation, until June 26, for slamming their cars into each other on the track. Also on probation are Piquet crew chief Chris Carrier and Scott crew chief Phil Gould.
The appeal on Friday was heard by Dick Berggren, a longtime racing broadcaster and magazine editor who was lead pit reporter on FOX from 2001 until 2012; Ed Clark, president of Atlanta Motor Speedway; and Doug Fritz, president of Iowa Speedway and a former president at Richmond. Shawn Rogers was the appellate administrator, who did not vote.

This is a steady operation, with 60% of revenue coming from fee-based services, including franchise arrangements, property management, and memberships. But until recently, the company has gotten little respect from investors, in part due to the supposed taint of time shares.
The Wyndham Grand Rio Mar Beach Resort in Puerto Rico, one of the company's 7,260 franchised hotel properties. Wyndham
That's changing, as Wyndham puts up increasingly better numbers. The company is expected to earn $465 million, or $3.22 a share, this year on revenue of $4.5 billion; that's up from $2.49 a share last year and headed to $3.67 a share in 2013, based on analysts' estimates. The stock is up 42% over the past 52 weeks, to near $49, and could grow another 20% over the next year. It yields 1.9%.
Once part of Cendant, the sprawling conglomerate that included Avis, Budget, and Coldwell Banker, Wyndham was split off into a separate company in 2006. Just in time, in other words, for the credit crisis and the evaporation of financing for time-share sales, and a sharp decline in overall leisure travel.
"We had a new business that people didn't really know all that well," CEO Stephen Holmes told Barron's. And what they didn't know scared them. The stock plummeted 90% from its spinoff price, to $2.92 at the market bottom.
While time shares get a bad rap, they produced 49% of Wyndham's revenue last year and 48% of earnings. The remainder comes from its franchised hotel business and an exchange platform that offers home rentals and time-share swaps.
THE TIME-SHARE INDUSTRY has evolved from its controversial early days in the 1970s, when high-pressure sales tactics included unrealistic promises about resale value.

No one at Wyndham claims time shares to be any type of real-estate investment. "You're prepaying your vacation experience for the future," the CEO says. A time share's condo-like accommodations are particularly compelling for a family with young children.
These days, the company is more efficient with its time-share pitch. It offers fewer tours but generates sales of $2,230 per tour, 40% above the 2007 level.
Management now offers those marketing skills to outside developers who build new time-share properties, cutting back on its own development efforts. This new asset-light model accounted for 7% of sales in the time-share segment last year. Management expects that figure to rise to 20% in the next three years.
"If they're growing at the same pace but using someone else's balance sheet, theoretically the multiple should expand," says JPMorgan analyst Joe Greff. He thinks the stock could be worth $60 in a year, based on a multiple of 12 times free cash flow.
The Bottom Line
Wyndham's shares could move up another 20% as profits grow and the hotelier and time-share operator continues its aggressive stock buyback program.
Wyndham's hotel operations, given the franchise model, don't require much in the way of capital.
Lower capital needs are driving free cash flow, which could reach $750 million this year, according to FactSet. Wyndham's management has been returning that cash to shareholders in the form of share buybacks and dividends. In the past two years, the company has reduced shares outstanding by 22%.
Wyndham is also committed to raising its dividend in line with earnings. Patrick Scholes, who covers the company for SunTrust Robinson Humphrey, predicts a 15%-to-20% payout boost when Wyndham reports its annual results in February.
If there's risk to be found at Wyndham, it centers on the company's exchange platform. Most of the rental homes on the exchange are located in Europe. As in 2009, though, investors would be wrong to assume the worst. Wyndham says a majority of its rental properties grew transaction volume in the third quarter. Austerity notwithstanding, Europeans continue to make vacation plans.
Cheap Lodging
Lesser known and tainted by time shares' reputation, Wyndham trades at a discount to peers despite solid revenue and profits.

OT: Weather too cold for little green friends
kaboehm (zone 9a, TX USA)February 12, 2011
No photos, but this morning I was taking the trash can to the street, and lying in the lid was a little anole. I can't call him "green" because he was a very dull brown. It was 24 degrees F out and little guy was so cold he could hardly move! I picked him up and he barely raised his head. I took him to my outdoors entryway, where there is a heat lamp warming lots of plants, and gently laid him on the soil of a big pot with an amaryllis bulb in it. When I checked a few minutes later, he was looking better, and when I went to "pet" him, he repositioned himself to get more light. Later, I saw him sitting on a leaf all green and perky!! I know he appreciated the help...and will repay me by eating lots of bugs!

And moreover he does remember that Thulasi has hit him with Kuthuvilakku. Appo ippo yaarukku jail???...Thulasika...illai Thamizhukka...illai for both of them aa? For Thamizh it is Charu and for Thulasi it is Vel and both them do believe that they are good ppl.

While the media touted the U.S.-Africa Leaders Summit as a sign of Africa's "rising" and its soon-to-be key role on the world stage, the truth is quite the opposite. African leaders' love for summitry isn't a sign of a rising continent, but rather, a sign of confusion, weakness and lack of direction.
We have not yet seen any renewed attempt to re-establish the "Quadrilateral Security Dialogue," comprising Japan, Australia, the U.S., and India, which conducted joint military exercises in 2007 and was seen by China as a hostile containment enterprise. But it is not hard to imagine that this is still very much on Abe's wish list. The dangers should not be exaggerated. But, with strategic competition between the U.S. and China as delicately poised as it is, and with the economic interests of Australia, Japan, and many others in the region bound up just as intensely with China as their security interests are with the U.S., rocking the boat carries serious risks.
In the face of such promises and threats, it makes no sense to be optimistic or pessimistic: We are not spectators of the world in motion, but players. Only spectators may be content with being optimistic or pessimistic. As for players, they are neither the one nor the other at all times. They play.
BUDAPEST - When it comes to geopolitics, there is always a market for gloom. Business has been booming in this respect lately, with The Economist, Foreign Affairs, and many less exalted journals full of claims that the global order is crumbling, America's ability (and willingness) to save it is in terminal decline, and the prospect of avoiding major conflict in the decade ahead is illusory. Plenty of recent events -- along with the ghosts of 1914 and 1939 -- have boosted the reputations, royalties, and revenues of today's doomsayers. There is Russia's adventurism in Ukraine; China's territorial assertiveness -- and Japan's new push-back nationalism -- in East Asia; continuing catastrophe in Syria and disarray in the wider Middle East; the resurgence of atrocity crimes in South Sudan, Nigeria, and elsewhere in Africa; and anxiety about renewed communal strife in India after Hindu nationalist Narendra Modi's stunning election victory. But, though global political conditions are hardly as good as they could be -- they never are -- there are plenty of grounds for thinking that they are not nearly as bad as so many are claiming. Here are the five most important reasons not to lose as much sleep as some pundits say you should.
Misguided nationalism is rearing its ugly head in some instances. The political dynamics of the region is shaking the geopolitical plate from under the surface. Dr. Kissinger once said, "history knows no resting places and plateaus." To me, history knows no end. Here in Northeast Asia, it is returning with a vengeance.
Politicians like to talk about the U.S. being the envy of the world. No one likes to admit that power still has its limits. It just seems to go against the American grain. When people talk about a weak president, perhaps the next step shouldn't be to look at his personality, but the position of the country.

27 Beautiful Westchester Parks You'll Immediately Fall In Love With
Looking for some fresh air? Here's every park you need to know.
The 411: Nestled at the confluence of two rivers (Croton and Hudson), Croton-on-Hudson offers an abundance of pastoral beauty and tranquility along with relative convenience for City-bound commuters (Croton is an express stop on Metro-North's scenic Hudson Line). An incorporated village, Croton is part of the town of Cortlandt. Outdoor lovers and nature enthusiasts enjoy many waterfront options, including Senasqua Park and the 500-acre Croton Point Park, overlooking the Hudson. Additional points of interest include Teatown Lake Reservation, a nature preserve, and the Old Croton Aqueduct Trail, which stretches from Croton to the New York City border. Recent revitalization efforts have targeted Croton's considerable riverfront property for recreational use. The village's picturesque character was recognized in 2004 when Croton received the first "Visions in Planning" award by the Hudson River Greenway. A strong sense of community pervades the village, thanks to an excellent school system and a myriad of well-attended, organized annual events, from parades and outdoor concerts to window-painting competitions and Christmas tree-decorating days. The Great Hudson River Revival, hosted at Croton Point Park, celebrates folk art, music, and the environment, while Croton's annual Summerfest offers a venue for local artists.

How long buyer can delay closing in Florida
1) We were suppose to close on 5/31 and found minor title issues
2) While title issues were being fixed, seller was cited for some unpermitted work outside of the home (we got lucky)
3) Now seller is trying to get permits etc. but does not have a definitive date to close.
How long do we have per Florida contract to wait? Can seller make us wait for ever or can we cancel the deal?

Respond to Review of CLOSED: Spread
by roodie
Review: I don't think I have seen such small portions served in any restaurant ever! While the food was OK (not great), the miniscule amount of food they served us was almost laughable, except for the fact that it was VERY expensive. What the owners are thinking is hard to fathom. We will not be returning.

Despite another loss, things are changing
Despite the major success of Mario Kart 8, Nintendo only sold 510,000 Wii U units from April-June, bringing the life to date sales to around 6.68 million consoles. Financially, the company lost $97.3 million.
Regardless of this loss, Wii U sales are up in comparison to 2013. With upcoming games such as Hyrule Warriors, and Super Smash Bros., the console will likely maintain the momentum it gained with Mario Kart 8.
One major advantage of Mario Kart 8 releasing in the first half of the year is that general awareness of the console, for both the consumers and the media, seems to be rising.
Many people outside of the Nintendo gaming community are alluding Nintendo's struggles to the ill-fated Sega Dreamcast. While the Dreamcast sold better initially, Sega lacked the finances to fund it beyond a few years. Nintendo, on the other hand, could suffer a 20 Billion Yen loss for 38 years straight.
Do you think things will turn around for the Wii U, or will it ultimately fail?

Smash Bros and Zelda U will be massive. I don't know in which position Nintendo will finish in the 'console war', but I don't see them losing money.

Zach Gibson said:
I agree. Finishing in third in terms of sales does not mean third in terms of profit. And, the major problem with the PS4 and Xbox One supporting primarily third party games, is that sales are split among them, whereas the Wii U is comprised primarily of exclusives.

Once the likes of Zelda Wii U and Smash Bros come out, I think the Wii U will experience a steady turn-around. And even if the Wii U does fail, Nintendo's still got the 3DS to fall back on.

Only stayed for one night before travelling to Seattle. We arrived late but check in was quick with friendly staff. The room is a good size with a small fridge, TV and even a microwave. It is showing signs of age and wear and tear especially the bathroom but clean which is important. The air con was working well so we enjoyed our sleep (it was warm outside). They offer breakfast but it was too crowded (as they only had a few tables) so we took them to our room. It was adequate for us. Overall good value.

Other searches I have done suggest it sometimes happens when you upgrade rather than clean install.
The only solution then is a clean install:-(

I use AVG free which didn't conflict in Vista, but tomorrow I will try uninstalling and see what happens. I cannot imagine though, that a conflict there is the problem. I guess i have to somehow "create the association" the message talks about.

I did uninstall my antivirus and it made no difference, As Windows Explorer is an .exe file it should open I guess, but it doesn't and I am inclined to live without it.
Thanks for your help, Pine Man.

The Colorful World of Termites
Termites are quite colorful insects. While they can indeed be destructive to homes, buildings, and trees, they are also extremely important to the environment. There are over …40 species in the U.S. alone. Each has unique attributes and unique coloring.It is very important to know all that you can about an insect that can damage your home, and even reduce it to rubble. If you can identify the different castes of termite, you can call an exterminator in a more timely manner. Termites are also beneficial to the environment. They eat deadfall and rotting trees and plants in the woods. The tunnels they dig to live in help to aerate the soil and make it good for planting. So, there truly are pros and cons to look at with these insects.A winged alate is a reproductive termite. It is one of three castes. Depending on the variety, alates can vary in color from a very pale yellow to light brown, or a very dark brown to black. The wing colors tend to vary more by species from nearly colorless, gray, and brown. Alates are the form most often seen.Nymphs are the youngest of the termite colony, and as they grow will separate into one of the three castes. Nymphs and workers are the two that do all the damage to structures, such as homes, outbuildings, and trees. Nymphs and workers tend to be pale in color and have soft bodies. As they find their place within the caste system, their color changes.Soldiers have the job of protecting the colony from enemies. They have soft bodies, but their heads are large and very hard. They have large jaws to defend the colony. Their bodies are often pale, but their heads can vary from yellow to red or black. In many species, they have quite unique designs upon their backs and heads.There are over 40 species of termite in the U.S. The nose termite workers are white and almost translucent. The alates are dark brown with very dark wings, and the soldiers are dark brown with large black heads. The lowland tree termite alates are light to dark brown, and the soldier has a light to dark brown body with a dark line running down the back and a dark red head with a black snout. The Formosan termite is yellowish brown and the soldier's head is orangey-red. Powder Post termites are yellowish brown and the soldiers have an orangey-brown head.All insects are interesting in some respect, even the ones that are destructive, like the termite. The alates and soldier termites especially can be quite colorful. Understanding the colors helps to identify exactly what you have found when you call the exterminator.Most exterminators warn that there are two types of houses when it comes to termites: one that is infested and one that will be infested. It is important to have your home checked regularly. If not, make sure to keep a close eye out for signs of termites or damage. (MORE)

Termites, Ants, and Their Many Similarities
Termites are a group of social insects that are often in their winged variety, mistaken for ants due to both species being alates. In many countries, termites are known as "wh…ite ants," thanks to their many similar behavioral traits, and the fact that they bear a passing similarity. In actual fact, despite these commonalities they are only distantly related to ants, and with a smattering of knowledge the two can easily be told apart. This article explains some of the main features and traits of termites, as well as giving a brief account of how they differ from their equally sociable cousins.Ants and termites are only somewhat similar in appearance if you know what to look for. While they are somewhat similar in size, a termite is tube shaped with a similar thickness the full length of their bodies, but ants have a distinct pinched waist in the middle of their body known as a pedicel. Their antennae are an another easily spotted difference, with the former having long beaded antennae that resemble small strings of pearls, and ants having elbowed antennae, or rather antenna with obvious crooks in the middle. Like many other insects, including ants and bees, termites are referred to as social insects because they live with great numbers of their kin, and almost like some human colonies, divide the work among themselves. They also produce overlapping generations, and collectively rear their offspring. Termites are famous for eating wood, but this is not the only staple of their diet, and they primarily feed on dead plant materials, as well as soil or animal dung. This is an easily recognizable difference to their ant cousins, that cannot digest organic plant waste, and as a result are famous scavengers that are known to steal crumbs from picnics, and raid the garbage cans in people's homes. Termites do not breed individually, rather they have a queen in their colony that can lay a tremendous amount of eggs, sometimes as many as 30,000 in a single day. The huge abdomen of the queen increases her body length by several times and reduces her ability to move, so attendant workers provide her with food and assistance. Another amazing fact about the queen of a colony is her lifespan. A queen can live for up to 45 years, and it is a fact that she keeps the same male mate for life. This is another major difference from an ant colony, where a queen mates once with sometimes several males, and then stores the eggs for life, with the male ants dying soon afterward.Both ant and termite species display similar tendencies with regards to doling out the work. Workers are the jack of all trades of a colony, and they do all of the foraging and storing of food. They also maintain the nest, and sometimes help the soldiers out on defense duty if required. The workers either collect all of the organic matter necessary to sustain the colony, or they go out and forage for food, and then in turn feed the other members of the colony. This ingenious process of feeding frees the parents up from the task of feeding all but their first generation, and allows the collective to grow much faster and larger. As both insects can have flying varieties, winged alates tend to look very similar to each other, but only at a glance. If you cannot tell them apart from the other traits listed above, simply take a good look at their wings. While both possess four wings, the wings of a termite are the same size and are almost symmetrical in appearance. Ant's wings are much different and are in no way a match, with the front pair of wings being visibly longer and wider than the rear pair.With only a basic knowledge of the ant and termite species, it can be easy to tell these fascinating creatures apart. Despite being widely looked upon as terrible pests for their ability to damage buildings or scavenge among the trash, many species are critical to ecosystem functioning around the world. Termites for example can recycle otherwise inaccessible nutrients into the ecosystem by decomposing wood and ants can be used as natural seed dispersers by a variety of organisms. The almost human like social organization and vast colonies of alates have ensured they are of great interest to naturalists and amateurs alike.Remember if you are being plagued by either and wish to have them removed, an exterminator needs to tailor his strategy depending on the insect involved. Using the simplest three points (antennae, wings, and body shape) you can quickly identify which type of alate you have near your home and let the professional know beforehand exactly what he is dealing with. Also, be aware that neither can devour wood or food in a comically swift manner and utterly destroy your home, so there is always time to get more than one estimate, and this can save you a great deal of money.

Concerned for Your Home? Learn the Difference Between Flying Ants and Termites
Flying ants and termites are often confused for each other as they have a generally similar appearance to those who don't really know much about them. If you've never seen a t…ermite or have never come across a flying ant, you may easily mistake one for the other and panic, thinking you have a major problem on your hands. Take the time to learn about what these insects are and how to tell them apart so that you can deal with any infestation before any serious damage is done to your house.Flying ants are not a particular species of ant as commonly thought. Rather, flying ants are ants from any species that have reached a particular stage of life. Depending on the species, they may be either male or female and for the most part, have wings because they are going to mate. For some species, select females grow wings and go on a "nuptial flight" where they will mate and return to their nest, lose their wings and lay eggs until they are ready to die. Males hatch, grow wings, fly, mate, and die. When the conditions are right, it is not uncommon to see swarms of flying ants on rooftops or hills, a practice commonly referred to as "hilltopping." After the mating season is over, those who don't die will return to their nests.Ants commonly found in North America are generally not dangerous to people at all, particularly flying ants. An ant with wings is an ant on a mission that doesn't involve eating or attacking anything or anyone. There is one type of ant that may cause damage to your home; however, and that is the black carpenter ant. Carpenter ants generally prefer damp wood. While they will not eat the wood in your home, if you have damp cross beams anywhere in your home (such as a basement) it is wise to know what carpenter ants look like so that you can catch an infestation early, preventing serious damage. Termites are classified as eusocial insects that mostly feed on dead vegetation such as wood, leaves, animal dung, and soil. The description "eusocial" simply means that they can be counted on to have overlapping generations of individuals that share tasks based on a cast system, just like ants and bees. Some are sterile. Young-care is a shared task and different "workers" have different jobs. Winged termites belong to the "alate" caste and are the reproducers. Unlike bees and ants, termite kinds mate with the queen for life. The queen can live up to 45 years and can lay as many as 2,000 to 3,000 eggs in one day. Specialists believe there are an estimated 4,000 species of termite and out of these, only about 10 percent are dangerous for the structure of your house. Depending upon where you live, you may never need to be concerned about termites. That being said, those termites that do enjoy wood above all other forms of food can be massively destructive. These species include termites that enjoy both dry and wet wood as a primary source of food. These species will also damage paper, cloth, and carpets. Due to the fact that termites prefer to remain hidden and only fly around during certain times of year, they can often inflict a great deal of damage before their presence is even realized. Termites are not dangerous to humans, however, though the monetary damages they can cause can be absolutely devastating. It's wise to routinely check for termites so that if an infestation occurs, you can take steps to eliminate it before serious damage is done to your home. Despite the fact that they may seem like similar creatures, flying ants and termites are actually quite different and once you know what to look for, you can tell them apart with ease. The first thing to note when making your determination is the type of antennae the insect in question has. Jointed antennae indicates an ant whereas termites have straight antennae. The second thing to look for is the type of wings. Both termites and ant alates have four wings. Ant alates, however, have wings of two different sizes. The foremost wings, closest to their heads, are significantly longer than their aft wings. A termite will have four wings that are all the same length. Finally, ants have a characteristically constricted waist. Termites don't have any definition to their waist at all; having an elongated body that is the same approximate width from stem to stern. Now that you are armed with the knowledge about the difference between flying ants and termites, you can confidently remain on the lookout for termites. You know that flying ants aren't dangerous or bothersome and will take care of themselves and that the site of a termite flying about means you had better double check and make sure your home is safe. Checking your home at least once, a year for termite infestation is a good way to prevent any serious infestation from occurring. Specialists believe there are an estimated 4,000 species of termite and out of these, only about 10 percent are dangerous for the structure of your house. Depending upon where you live, you may never need to be concerned about termites. That being said, those termites that do enjoy wood above all other forms of food can be massively destructive. (MORE)

Alates 101: Flying Ants vs. Termites
In the first warm days of springtime, the sight of swarming insects near your home can be a sign of potentially damaging infestation. The swarming insects, in the young adult …or alate stage, may be one of two species: ants or termites. How can you tell which is which? The brief winged period of an ant or termite life cycle occurs as a means of extending the colony's populations. The spring swarming, sometimes also referred to as the nuptial flight, takes young adults out of their birth colony to find mates. If successful, a male and female termite find each other and then find their own damp patch of wood for breeding. Female ants seeks out a place to lay eggs, but the male dies after mating. Wings help in this process because they take the alates far enough from their original colony to find ample, unrelated partners. While termites and ants share a general outline, differences are more salient up close. While the antennae of ants bend at a right angle, for example, those of termites extend in relatively straight lines. Ants have two sets of wings, one wider than the other, while a termite's wings all measure the same distance across. The termite does not seem to have a waist compared to the distinctly nipped and narrow-waisted ant. Visually, carpenter ant and termite infestations share only a couple of factors in common. The most notable commonality is swarming. Both ants and termites also shed wings that accumulate near tunnel openings. Apart from these similarities, each insect type leaves behind distinctly different clues. As ants chew through wood, they clean up after themselves and create tidy passages. Termites, on the other hand, eat as they go, leaving refuse behind. Their pathways look sloppy. Worker termites, small and white, appear nothing like black carpenter ants. You are not likely to see any termites after the swarm, however, for they remain within the damaged wood. If ants are your problem, however, you will see them inside your house. Noticing more than a few ants wandering around, especially when the ground outside is frozen, indicates that ants are at work in your walls. Termites pose a serious threat to the structure of a house. If you discover them, call a professional. An experienced termite company addresses the infestation until the pests are gone. Methods to eradicate them include using bait to poison the colony or chemical barriers to keep them from entering the structure.Ants, though potentially harmful, cause far less damage than termites. You can address an ant infestation yourself with store-bought bait. When dealing with a persistent ant presence, injections of boric acid work to kill the colony. While destructive, ants lack the devastating power of termites. Determining early on that you are dealing with a termite problem allows you to limit the damage the pests inflict. Awareness can help preserve the integrity of your structure and save you money in countering a smaller infestation. Termites cause $5 billion in damage in the U.S. each year. The estimated cost you can expect to incur if your home is compromised by termites is $3,000. (MORE)

And by lay down, I mean set aside and hold up a carrot instead.
A lesson from history:
"From time to time the English shoot one of their admirals to encourage the others."
Speak softly and then lay down your stick so they know you're serious.
The Washington correspondent says that the only way to send a signal to the banks that the government is serious about nationalization is to go ahead and nationalize one of the upper-echelon banks. Doesn't this sound a bit like the "moral hazard" argument that was employed in allowing Lehman Brothers to fail? I think Timothy Geitner and the bankers know this, and the bankers are pressing the only advantage they have.
It seems so simple to simply say "nationalize one of the upper echelon banks." True, of course there are associated risks, like the rest of the upper echelon banks failing as a result.
I think if a major bank was nationalized, the reaction would not be compliance of others, but more of something that resembles a firesale. Those few investors that are still holding equity and debt from the non-nationalized banks will lose their faith of any return. Compound that with the feeding frenzy of short-sellers and you will see that nationalizing one bank is not possible.
If one bank goes down, so too goes the faith in the others. You may not agree, but flexing government muscle may end up precipitating a further collapse and even more banks ending up as a government asset.
This is the only situation I can recall that really demands the skill set of Elmer Fudd. I suddenly miss Jesse Helms.
