I love this location because of the great view of the DC Metro area at night. This was a last minute plan, we walked in at 8:00 and were seated right away! The service and food were great.. I am learning to eat better ( code for diet) so I happy with the veggie and salad selections on the menu. This was really the most important part of selecting Ruth's Chris for dining during the week!

Look at this pretty, unplanned combo....
I already had the peach colored lillies in the back. Although I hardly ever got to see them bloom because the deer always ate them off while still in bloom. Not this year tho, I get to enjoy them.This year I planted my ws seedlings of Nicotiana Lime green in front. Not really thinking about they would look together.
Don't you just love it when an accidental combo works that well.
I believe that lime green would work with any color.
I find the peachy pinks of my daylilies are the hardest colors to deal with. I never have a true pink with them.
I have one that I have moved several times and still haven't found the perfect companion for the color.
The Nicotiana (tobacco) plants may be why the deer left your daylilies alone.
Beautiful plant combination. Love those colors together. My spare bedroom has those colors. That is a beautiful and elegant daylily. I hope I can find one like that. Tres chic!
Nicotiana is a great plant to go in the Cottage Garden. It couples with everything so splendidly. Tall, light and airy.
Elegant combination you have there.
Thanks everyone for your kind compliments.
Annie, I didnt know nicotiana was a deer deterent, but i have to attribute everything else being left alone due to the milorganite. I even had tulips for the first time in years. As much as i have raved about this stuff, people are going to think I am getting compensated.
very pretty Bear, i especially like the delicate white flowers
pippi21, I notice only a slight odor when I am handling it. Last fall I snipped some lengths of panty hose or old knee hi's to make little bags, and poured roughly a cup or so in each bag, and hung them up in trees at arms reach, approx 20 feet or so apart. I encircled just my back yard. Didnt put any in the front.I didn notice deer in the back yard all winter. But I did have them within 12 feet of my front door, leaving droppings on my walk, and rubbing my new willow tree almost in half. Spring came, and I was still feeling a little nervous about it working, since only spraying every month or so helped before. So I then sprinkled a little directly on top of the ground encircling my backyard. Since last fall nothing in the backyard has been touched. I even had tulips bloom for the first time in many years. Usually they ate them off as soon as they set buds, same with my daylillies. Hostas were munched etc. I have not sprinkled anymore and still no problems. Before I just mixed a concoction of garlic, hot sauce etc, that worked very well, but you have to cath the plants early before the deer hit and keep applying. The milorganite has been absolutely no hastle, no problem, and no odor unless you are nose to bag trying to smell it.
Well that was information you left out.
I had never heard of this product before. I looked it up.
Improved sewage sludge. Cool.
So that is supposed to deter animals from your garden because it smells like humans - we may not be able to smell it, but the animals do. Hmmmm, very interesting.
Glad you found something that works so well for you.
Your flowers are beautiful!
Back in the 70s you could get sludge from sewage treatment plants and then in the 80s they stopped allowing it. My parents used it for years. It broke up the red clay in their yard and turned it into rich, black soil, along with truck loads of leaf mold they added. Dad swore by it.
I would like to read the studies done on this product if there are any.
I will have to investigate this further.
To be honest Annie, it was kinda tough in the beginning to get my head around what this stuff is. I wore gloves and everything. But according to info, with the processing its even safe to apply to veggie gardens. I didnt do that, but I suppose its no worse than the horse manure,lol. But I drew the line there anyway. I have heard comments even from relatives on how great this stuff is to even green up lawns.There is lots of documentation to read online as well. As long as it keeps working for my deer, I am happy.

Tom Brady, Patriots struggle in ugly defeat - 0 Comments
Rocked in Detroit
DETROIT — Tom Brady spent the first two weeks of the preseason carving up defenses with a surgeon's scalpel. Last night in Detroit, Brady and the rest of the starters, both offensively and defensively, were as sharp as a bowl of yogurt.
The Patriots fell flat in their most important preseason test, falling to the Lions by a 40-9 margin at Ford Field. The starters were outscored 16-3 in the first half, and it might have been worse if the Lions didn't commit five undisciplined penalties for 45 yards.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Climbing ranks
Female police officers sign of gains in workplace equality
It's that time of the year and another opportunity to celebrate International Women's Day, March 8. You know, it still amazes me that women were once shut out from public life; we couldn't vote, we were barred from advanced education and we couldn't enter into some professions such as medicine. In some provinces, women couldn't hold property and, in fact, women were not even defined as persons. Thanks to the hard work of a determined rights advocate named Nellie McClung, women in Manitoba gained the vote as early as 1916 while women in the rest of Canada had to wait four more years.
Where are we today? Well, women are finally moving into leadership roles as heads of state: in fact, we now have six female provincial premiers. And while Bertha Wilson was the first woman appointed to the Supreme Court of Canada in 1982, now we have at least twelve women appointed as judges to the Manitoba Court of Queen's Bench.
But what about women and policing? Societal views in the early 1900s suggested that the basic female qualities would be a general impediment to effective police work. As a result, women were limited to roles more in line with social work such as the young offenders or crime prevention sectors while street patrol was still considered a man's job.
In Manitoba, as early as 1916, local groups lobbied for a female officer and Mary Dunn was finally appointed as the first official woman police constable. However, as with other police services of the time, Dunn was assigned to the morality department with her duties being described as "aiding women in distress" and working with "wayward children."
As well, Dunn was not issued a uniform or equipment and was only allowed to work within the police station building itself. Her pay was below that of the most junior male officer recruit. Then, from 1916 to 1976, no female officer was allowed to attain the rank of first-class constable.
Over time, empirical research, experience and common sense quickly proved that women were just as competent as men, providing they had the appropriate training, experience and supervision. So, it's hard to believe today that women were considered too emotionally unstable, lacked confidence in handling conflict or that men and women simply couldn't work together because of the potential of sexual attraction. Thankfully, those outdated views are now somewhat behind us and women are continuing to take their rightful place in police service, although with only 221 female officers currently in the City of Winnipeg Police Service, there is obviously still room for improvement.
Yet, these women officers love their job and are a model for women in policing. Sgt. Sandra Martin for instance, is a 19-year police veteran and the Western and Northern Canada regional representative for the International Association of Women Police. Martin, currently a supervisor of a general patrol shift, has had an exciting career including patrol, collision investigation, commercial crime and working in the vulnerable person's unit.
As a young woman officer, Martin indicates that many of the stereotypes and myths about the capability of women are simply no longer applicable.
On the other hand, she suggests that the blended skills resulting from men and women working together greatly improves the ability to serve the public and to deal with the many crisis incidents they encounter.
As well, Martin also suggests that while working shifts is indeed a workplace challenge, societal views of male involvement in child rearing has helped women officers to more effectively manage these family issues.
On the other hand, Patrol Sgt. Jennifer McKinnon, a 16-year police service veteran, has had the opportunity to use her background in justice and criminology and a personal interest in the sciences to specialize in forensics. Now, after years of intensive training, McKinnon has become well-known in the forensics field and her expert testimony in court has gained the respect of local criminal lawyers. And although the long hours required of a forensics specialist isn't as glamourous as it might appear on television, McKinnon wouldn't trade her role for anything.
Both women are extremely happy with police service as their chosen career. In particular, because there are so many varied job roles that an individual can move to. There is opportunity for generalists and specialists but no matter what, the job is always challenging, and as an officer, you are always learning and growing.
I'm very proud to learn that our own local police service, as well as other Canadian law enforcement agencies, is being recognized for a superior calibre of police officer training as well as the role that women today are playing within the profession.
For instance, currently Martin is leading a team of service volunteers from the Winnipeg, Brandon and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police to bring the International Association of Women Police 2014 conference to Winnipeg. This prestigious international association was founded in 1915 and represents women in the field of criminal justice in over 60 countries worldwide. The association's mission is to strengthen and unite women in law enforcement and it does so through mentoring, networking, a quarterly magazine and training and development through an international conference.
After significant effort, planning and presentations, Manitoba's group of police women volunteers was successful in attracting the prestigious international conference for 2014 to Winnipeg. Conference planners anticipate that over 600 attendees from all over the world will descend into our city to attend this showpiece event. Participants will learn from a mix of international and local keynote speakers, attend multiple workshop sessions, network and bask in the light and attention of the annual international award winners.
Nellie McClung, her colleagues in government and those early pioneer female police officers helped to break the many career barriers experienced by women. Today, both women and law enforcement in general are benefiting from this change as the opportunity to have a challenging career in the police service is open to anyone.
To help support this year long celebration and kick off the journey toward the international conference, the local police women's group is hosting a fashion show that will exhibit women's uniforms throughout the years. What a great way to celebrate International Women's Day.

Free for everyone, all are welcome
Sunny Clifford and her twin sister's political awakening begins when Cecelia Fire Thunder — the first female president of the Oglala Lakota — defies a South Dakota law that makes abortion a crime, even in cases of rape or incest. Fire Thunder takes a stand by proposing a women's health clinic providing abortions on the reservation but open to all local women. While Serena is unwed and with a toddler, and Brandon is raising two little boys, Sunny is just back on the reservation after two years in college. All three find themselves immersed in this political battle as they struggle between opportunity and principle. Join us as we engage with this important conversation.

Things to do in Germany
One of the most popular things to do in Germany is visit its array of museums. The Ludwig in Cologne is the home of one of the world's largest collections of Picasso's work. The Gutenberg in Mainz features an astounding collection of historical printing presses, and the Kunsthalle in Hamburg is one of the most important art museums in all of Europe.
Aside from its cultural sites, there are several things to do in Germany that involve visitors with the country's culture, such as Oktoberfest. Oktoberfest is the world's largest fair and is held annually in Munich. Autumn travelers who are wondering what to do in Germany need look no further than participating in this lengthy and exciting festival.
Additionally, the country's beautiful landscape ensures nature lovers will never be left wondering what to do in Germany. It boasts several national parks, including the Bavarian Forest National Parks that features breathtaking vistas of endless, untamed forests; Berchtesgaden National Park which showcases one of the oldest areas of the Alps and the massive Watzmann Mountain; and the beautiful Altmuhltal Valley Nature Park, through which the Altmuhltal, a tributary of the Danube, runs. Nearly all of Germany's National Parks offer guided tours, educational speaking series on the natural flora and fauna of the area, and phenomenal hiking trails.
Also known as Asamkirche, the church at Christmas is a Baroque jewel redolent of pine boughs and frankincense.
The hat shop in the trendy Schwabing district, sells haute headgear.
The most famous attraction in the Brandenburg capital city of Potsdam (an easy day trip from Berlin) is the elaborate, Rococo-style Sanssouci castle—Berlin's answer to Versailles, created by King Friedrich Wilhelm II between 1745 and 1747.
Notorious Berlin club entrepreneur Heinz "Cookie" Gindullis has been a household word for Berlin's revelers since he opened the first Cookies in 1994. After years of searching for a new home, Cookies' latest (fifth!) incarnation has revived its old spirit in what was once a cinema.
A serious car fan can while away hours kicking tires and smelling the leather at Audi's big showroom above Terminal 1.
Just north of Kampen, this beach is less crowded than Buhne 16 (it also requires clothing).
Starchitect Daniel Libeskind's boldly designed museum building—an angular assemblage of zinc-coated panels that's been called both visionary and blasphemous—houses exhibits that pay powerful tribute to both the devastation and hope of the Jewish people.
The Reichstag, with its transparent Norman Foster dome and top-notch collection of contemporary art (cue Gerhard Richter's stunning interpretation of the German flag in the lobby), is a blessing upon the urban grid and a serious statement about Western democracy's chances of survival.
Located in Tiergarten, the Gemäldegalerie is one of the most highly regarded museums in Germany. The museum's collection, founded in 1830, contains European art dating from the 13th through the 18th century.
Oranienstrasse in Kreuzberg, the former center of radical West Berlin, is now one big sidewalk café spiced with kebab shops and leading-edge, cheap-chic boutiques like this one.

Do Croton leaves grow back?
I have a nice colorful Croton that's about 6 years old. And over time as it grew it dropped a couple of leaves from the bottom. They never grew back though, and now it just kind of looks like a feather duster. Is there anything I can do?
They just grow kinda pale and drop.
Not the lower leaves, which the plants drops as they age.
I have cut back Crotons to make them branch & shape more attractively, but I'd wait 'til Spring. Has the mix been changed in all these years? Likely fresh soil at that time will help w/ new growth, also these plants benefit from humidity trays, & watering to overflow when watering.
It's likely your plant is low on stored energy due to low winter light levels, so the best strategy for getting the most vigorous back-budding would be to move the plant outdoors into shade as soon as night lows are reliably above 55*. Then, cut the plant back hard around Father's Day. The plant will back-bud and several new stalks will grow. On the subsequent Father's Day (2014), you can repeat the process by cutting back the new growth on the several stems that occur after the first pruning. If you don't need a repotting (as opposed to potting up) by this summer (probably will), you undoubtedly will by summer of '14.
Hi again,
Sorry but a soil change once in 6 yrs. isn't enough, likely the soil is completely spent. It's suggested to refresh mix once a yr, or maybe 2 at most.
To branch it, you'll need to be brave & cut the top off in the Spring. It'll be bare for a while, but w/good care, more of the good light you have that kept it colorful & a bit of time, it'll grow back in. I did this several times & the plant filled back in beautifully, couldn't tell it had ever been cut. But not now, pls. wait til Spring & change the soil first.
Hi Al, If I mixed anything, pls. jump in here.
Let me make sure I understand this right (English isn't my second language) You mean I should just cut it down short, along with all the leaves? Seems really risky to me : P I might have to with time cos it's gonna start looking like a broom. I can drop a photo tomorrow if it's of any help.
Lol - Karen and I posted with the same time stamp, and offered similar advice. I'd like to see a picture of the plant before I say HOW short, but basically, it doesn't matter. You could cut it back an inch above the soil line if it's healthy and all would be well. It only seems risky to you because you haven't yet done something like this, but I've done it for myself and others hundreds of times - thousands, if you count chopping back containerized trees. The response is genetically encoded in the plant, and extremely predictable. All you need to be relieved of your misgivings is the dauntless daring and dash to make the cut. In two weeks, you'll heave a sigh of relief and feel better for having added another trick to the bag. ;-)
Yeah - I'd cut the one on the left back to about even with the window sill on the building across the way, and the other stem about even with the top of the light colored dryvit accent strip just below it. You could even cut back more severely if you like. One of the stems should be 1/2-2/3 the ht of the other. If 1 is thicker, make that the taller ..... and make June your targeted timing, if you can stand the wait. ;-) Cutting back now will result in lackluster back-budding.

Styx and Foreigner to Release 'The Soundtrack of Summer'
Styx and Foreigner will release a compilation to coincide with their upcoming tour, with some help from former Eagle Don Felder.
Styx and Foreigner will release a compilation to coincide with their upcoming tour, with some help from former Eagle Don Felder.
A reworked version of 'Hotel California' finds co-writer Don Felder employing a flamenco style similar to the Eagles' 1990s-era live version of the track -- while appearing alongside tour mates from Styx and Foreigner.
Styx were on top of the world during the early '80s, with a string of multi-platinum albums and a growing collection of hit singles to their credit -- but it was all about to come to a screeching halt.
Foreigner and Styx are hitting the road with Don Felder for the Soundtrack of Summer tour, scheduled to begin May 16 -- and they stopped by the Ultimate Classic Rock offices to talk about how it came together, what inspired their new re-recording of the Eagles classic 'Hotel California,' and what we can expect to see and hear during the tour.
He may not be a household name, but for anyone who spends time reading liner notes, Kenny Aronoff is a legend -- a prolific session drummer who's manned the kit for everyone from John Mellencamp to the Smashing Pumpkins. Recently, Aronoff's busy schedule has included the all-star Beatles tribute concert as well as a brief series of gigs with Styx.
It's hard to find a rock musician who wasn't strongly influenced by the Beatles, and in a new exclusive video interview Styx, Foreigner and Don Felder talk extensively about their life-changing initial experiences with the Fab Four.
A trio of classic-rock giants will hit the road together this summer for a two-and-a-half-month tour that winds across the U.S. Foreigner, Styx and Don Felder will launch the 'Soundtrack of Summer' tour in mid May.

I'm trying to run a PHP script, like writing something in a txt file. If I manually load the file it works, but not with a cron job. I have cPanel and I followed what I read in the help page, but nothing works.
I tried this command
php -q /user/public_html/folder/cronTest.php
but it didn't work. I also tried
/user/local/bin/php -q /cronTest.php
I also tried to put
#!/user/public_html/bin/php -q at the top of the file, but that didn't work either. I've also tried to change file permissions with similar results.
I really need to learn how to use cronjobs, cause I'll have a lot of work where it is needed.
I intend to use cPanel to set corncobs, so I hope the problem is with the command and/or the in code in the PHP file.

So this is my first batch I'm kegging - a 1.048 OG pale ale. It's been 12 days since brew day and 5 days since the krausen fell. also 5 days ago the FG was 1.012, which is what was expected given the yeast attenuation.
Question is do you think 12 to 13 days is enough time in the primary before crash cooling, or am I not giving the beer enough time to mellow out before dropping the yeast, etc from suspension?
Most all of us acsribe our own personal practice to allow more time on the yeast but, it is entirely possible this beer is ready for packaging.
Take another reading to verify nothing changed in teh gravity and really taste the sample. If you have any hints of an unexpected flavor give it some more time.
I know it is hard to tell being your first batch and given the fact the beer is young and not carbonated so, use the numbers and your "gut" to tell you whether or not to proceed.
It's kind of a sliding scale... Can you crash and bottle it now? Sure. It'll be good, drinkable beer. But... if you wait longer... it'll be juuuuuuuuust a bit better.

by Stewart, Ian
Publisher:Oxford University Press, USA
In this retitled and revised edition of The Problems of Mathematics, renowned mathematician Ian Stewart gives math buffs and non-technical readers-as well as students of the subject-the perfect guide to today's mathematics. This challenging and fascinating book includes three new chapters that cover the most recent developments in the mathematics field, including one on Kepler's sphere-packing problem, to which a solution has been at last announced after a wait of 380 years.Stewart, a particularly gifted mathematician and writer, shows us not only that math can be explained in everyday language, but that it can be downright fun as well. Puzzle solvers especially will delight in accounts of puzzles like Fermat's famous theorem, manifolds (a kind of mathematical origami in many dimensions), and the patterns in chaos. And what reader wouldn't want probability theory explained by demonstrating how to maximize one's lottery winnings? According to From Here to Infinity, good mathematics has an air of economy and an element of surprise. One could easily make the same claim for this instructive, amusing, and sometimes mind-boggling book.

Obama is a Leo & Putin is a Libra...Any Astrologers want to give their insights?
Poster Handle
Post Content
Obama is a Leo and Putin is a Libra.
From what I know about the two, Leo's need attention, and Libra's can sit on a fence foreveeerrr.
Are there any astrologers who can shed some insight on the planetary dynamics of these two men?
Putin is an ice queen who is all head. Obama is heart and his biggest weakness is vanity/cowardice. Ironically it is Leos who are the most cowardly, despite their valiant avatar. Give me a Virgo, or a ruthless Scorpio, any day, those people will fuck you up, no questions asked.
Anonymous Coward 24536143
I do like the Scorpios myself! Putin is a virgo in Vedic astrology!
Putin always seemed very Scorpionic to me. He is boiling below the surface but cool and calculated at the top. Of the signs I have known, it is the earth signs + Scorpio that seem most capable of being ruthless and getting their way in the end. Virgo surprises because it seems so charming and innocent.. until it isn't. Virgo dark side seems like all of the characters in the movie "Sin City" , especially the character played by Elijah Wood, Kevin, and his counterpart Marv played by Mickey Rourke. Mickey Rourke is a Virgo, Elijah Wood has very Virgo-like traits. Barack Obama is definitely a Leo- he has very Leonine tendencies and characteristics. If Putin is Virgo in Vedic astrology, he fits my perception of the darker manifestation of Virgo. Virgo as a quiet leader with a spine of steel. I'm a fan of Putin's :).
Anonymous Coward 24536143
Well Putin is an INTJ personality, he is a strategist. INTJ do not have many emotions, they are rational and use logic. Virgo are pandentic, like to have everything perfect or theres trouble. Funnily enough I am also an INTJ and can vouch for this type of what people think as "ruthless" person, when in fact I am logical and get the job done. No need for pussy footing around situations if you have an important job to do.
Do you not think Obama is too "snarky" to be a leo? He seems to me like a bitchy version of a Leo, bad at open confrontation, more likely to do behind the scenes deals. Two faced, thats what I mean! lol
I'm a fan of Putin too, I'm a fan off anyone doing an efficient job to be honest! :)
Whats your sun, moon and ascendant sign? Do you know? I find the subject really interesting!
I'm Sag sun, Libra moon, Gemini ascendant!

Yellow leaves falling off orange tree
I am having a heck of a time with an orange tree. The leaves are turning yellow and falling off. I think I have narrowed it down to either an iron deficiency or the roots are way too wet, but I am certainly no expert. I have pictures posted at:
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
My potted Meyer Lemon stays nice and green all winter on the windowsill. Then all the leaves fall off [now] in the spring as the sun intensifies. In a month more branches will sprout and the whole plant will be green till next spring. Thats not all, the fruit take a looong time on the tree to mature.
Living most of my life in so. Caif. on a avacado and citrus ranch, I can tell buy the look that your soil may need a little help. Looks like clay I think. Your tree needs fertlizer. All the leaves look a little yellow they should be a nice med. green with some shine. Try some of those fertilizer stakes FOR CITRUS but don't over do. You can also try digging a larger watering basin area around the tree(out past the TREE drip line)with side banks around 2-3" high. Fill up the basin (hose) around the tree and see how long it takes the water to soak in. Could be not draining well. If it is draning well great, then the basin will fill up with the extra water from the drip system providing more water to the tree and you will need to water less. If it is draining badly then you will need to admin the soil. Hope some of this helps. Good luck
I grow Lemon Meyers, Kumquats, and Mexican Limes. Citrus trees are heavy feeders, they need a lot of nitrogen and potassium and micro nutrients such as magnesium. For my Lemon Meyers the best ratio is 5-1-3.
Also make sure the root ball isn't compact and the soil drains well around it. You can actually starve a tree if the root ball is still compact from being in a container.

When I told my mom I was having a rough time, she responded with "pop a xanax, take a nap, and when you wake up all will be right with the world." My mom is finally starting to shape up.
it's like god just wants me to be high for five days in a row. keep the blizzards coming.

yeah but it's new years. they should arrest people for being sober that day.
Dude, you were so drunk last night that when we went into subway, you forgot the word for bread.
My scrabble letters just formed failure. Thanks God.
Mike and I just ate the lobster we found in the toilet
At barnes & noble, drinking beer out of thermoses, lookin legit.
And as you crawled into the bathroom last night you repeatedly said "I know the routine".
she's just sitting in a corner ripping all of the filters off her menthols
So while she was giving me a lap dance I told her I quit med school. Just so she didn't feel like the only one who's made bad decisions in their life.

Was wondering if any of you know how i can get a full screen wallpaper for my Z2, since i tried the app Wizard (weird name after) and now im using Wallpaper setter.
Wizard did not work and wallpaper setter, at it's best cuts the notification bar and half the buttons of the dock.
Tried googling 1080x1776 wallpapers instead of 1080x1920 too, to no better result.
Wanted to change, since the stock wallpapers make for a crappy homescreen, since it is already a washedout screen (i come from a note 3, so probably it's just my opinion).
P.S. Was wondering if you can use any method to not crop the images on lockscreen too
Thank you

U.S. Energy Secretary Steven Chu has congratulated a team of researchers at the Department's BioEnergy Science Center who have achieved advancement toward next generation biofuels.
The research involves using bacteria to convert plant matter directly into isobutanol, which can be used in regular car engines with a heat value higher than ethanol and similar to gasoline.
"Today's announcement is yet another sign of the rapid progress we are making in developing the next generation of biofuels that can help reduce our oil dependence," says Secretary Chu. "This is a perfect example of the promising opportunity we have to create a major new industry—one based on bio-material such as wheat and rice straw, corn stover, lumber wastes, and plants specifically developed for bio-fuel production that require far less fertilizer and other energy inputs. But we must continue with an aggressive research and development effort."
The work is being conducted by researchers at the Department of Energy's BioEnergy Science Center (BESC), led by Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
Using consolidated bioprocessing, a research team led by James Liao of the University of California at Los Angeles for the first time produced isobutanol directly from cellulose.
The team's biofuel research, published online in Applied and Environmental Microbiology, represents across-the-board savings in processing costs and time, plus isobutanol is a higher grade of alcohol than ethanol.

Anyone's hardwood floor.......cold?
We installed new hardwood in a few rooms after ripping out carpet. Now I have to admit, my feet are even cold with socks on. Granted it is only 16 degrees outside, but now I'm second-guessing my desire to install it in more rooms. Did anyone else go through a "break-in" period of getting use to hardwood? I don't plan to put large area rugs in each room or I would've kept the carpet. DH changed his mind about wanting hardwood in the bedroom now. So what is everyone else doing, wearing slippers?
YES, ours is. I wear socks all the time and I'm still cold. The thing I wish we could have is sub-floor radiant heating for hardwood...I may consider it for the areas we don't have hw on yet -- we're going to replace carpet w/hw sometime soon...
Rugs help, but I can't have rugs over every single sf of the floor.
I don't really notice mine. I usually keep the temp pretty low in the winter (mid-sixties) and just wear socks or slippers when I'm home. I have no rugs in my bedroom and just some entryway rugs and a small living room rug. We're down to our last two rooms with carpet, and I've already bought the wood for one of them.
Radiant heating would be sooooo wonderful, but it's not in our budget. It would be great waking up in the morning and stepping onto a warm hardwood floor.
It's time to buy some socks with grippies on the bottoms too as I slipped on the hardwood the other day in the bathroom.
I wear wool socks in winter & have many large area rugs - the coldest is one part of the kitchen that only has a crawl space under it - someday I think icelene insulation would make a difference.
I replaced the bedroom carpeting with wool carpets - older home that is chilly - they all have beautiful wood flooring underneath - but I opted carpeting for noise reduction & warmth
I don't know why or when this started, but after a lifetime of going barefoot or wearing slippers, I started putting shoes on first thing in the morning and keeping them on all day.
I prefer shoes that don't have to be tied so I have "house shoes" and "outside shoes." Actually, I replace the ties on my shoes for those curly ones that don't need to be tied.
Yes, I notice it during the winter, but I love the cool floors on bare feet in the summer.
I wear socks or slippers all the time as soon as it gets cold. I also just got a huge shaggy area rug for our family room so we could spend more time on the floor (I have a three year old)
Find some slippers you love :)
Yes, they are alittle cold, but not as cold as the tiled bathrooms. I use a rug in front of the kitchen sink & one in front of the stove. A large area rug in your LR would definately help! I get compliments on my floors all the time...so I guess they're worth it!! I opted for carpet in my bedrooms.
I didn't put HW in my bedroom for that reason. I like carpet in there. I also don't like little pieces of stuff stuck to the bottom of my feet b/4 I get into my clean sheet!!
But someone mentioned Uggs earlier - live in mine during the winter. Have both the boots & house slippers. Love them!
The hardwood floors in my old house were so cold that my feet hurt and my toes turned purple. I hate seeing my son play on the floors because they are so cold. The basement is partially finished and there's a pellet stove down there that runs most of the time in the winter. We had an energy audit done and the guy told us to make sure to caulk all of the seams around the baseboards. There's a heck of a breeze coming through around the sill plate.
The house that I live in now is about 100 yrs older than my old house and the floors are very comfortable. It was newly renovated a year ago. The basement isn't finished, and there's no insulation in the basement ceiling. I think that the difference is that there's an oil furnace in the basement of this house. Although...it's not exactly warm in the basement. Maybe it has more to do with insulation/caulked seams due to the renovations.
The floors are slippery in both houses. I read somewhere that you can scribble patterns on the soles of regular socks with fabric paint to turn them into non-slip, but I haven't tried it. We've all had our share of wipe-outs on the floors. They're beautiful, but they have their problems.
No break-in period here, we loved all of ours from the first moment it started going down, through the time when the dog ran through the wood glue and tracked green glue all over the rest of the house as we ran screaming after her, and even as I have to sweep, then, still run over the floor with Bona cleaner to get it clean for company.
I like the way it looks, the way it feels, the good feeling I have when I clean it. It's cool, but not really cold, although, living in Central Ca we are not down at 16 degrees either. We are having a mid-40s week and that is quite cold for us. We do wear slippers in the house most all the time, because of support issues in our feet, so maybe that's why I was surprised at your question. My DD wears socks only and has never complained about the cool floor. I have a big thick wool rug in the LR where we sit and where the dogs lay. Perhaps you could have a nice rug in your living area? I also added small rugs on each side of the bed (3'x5') so that getting out of bed in the morning in winter is not a cold thing. My (tiled) entry has a long thick runner, both bath vanity areas have a nice rug in front of the sink, and the dining room has an old Persian rug under the table and chairs. I read some saying that they don't want to cover up their hardwood with rugs, but truly, I think a nice thick rug in the living areas adds comfort and also enhances the look of the floor. When you finally find the right paint color for a wall, you don't say, "I don't want to put any pictures or art on that wall and cover up the new color!"
Our last house had quite a bit of ceramic tile. Built at lake level, the house was on a slab and I was really worried that the floors would be icy. Not so . . . the builder did several things to make sure that didn't happen.
In contrast, my friend's hardwood floor, with a basement underneath, was very cold. I was so surprised.
I forgot to mention that when we redid the master suite and north bedroom, both downstairs over the crawlspace, I personally cut sheets of polyiso insulation and taped them between the joists, to manufacturer's specs. STILL cold. They have a ridiculously small R-value. So I'm really not sure what else we could do except for that subfloor heating. Which we can't do in the bedroom, unless I want to take out all that insulation.
I'm wearing socks *and* slippers now. Wish I didn't have to, but I do.

WNBA Scores
Thursday, Aug 26th
7:00 PM ET, August 26, 2010
Madison Square Garden, New York, NY
Cappie Pondexter's start, Essence Carson's finish give Liberty Game 1 win
NEW YORK -- A starter for most of her first two seasons, Essence Carson has been relegated to a reserve role with little playing time this year. She took advantage of extra minutes Thursday night and helped the New York Liberty to a big win in their playoff opener.Cappie Pondexter scored 23 of her 28 points in the first half, Carson scored nine of her 17 in a key fourth-quarter run and the Liberty beat the Indiana Fever 85-73 in Game 1 of their Eastern Conference semifinals series."You have to be ready when your number's called, no matter how many minutes you play," said Carson who started 64 of 68 games the previous two years and none this season. "Whether its 2 seconds or whether its 40 minutes."Carson started all 34 games last season and 30 of 34 as a rookie in 2008. This year, she has come off the bench every game, averaging just 3.7 points and 9.6 minutes. In this game, she had season highs in scoring, field goals (7) and minutes (26)."I said that the entire season that I'm going to be ready because one day your number will be called," Carson said. "No matter when it is, what game it is, whether its the championship game or if it's a game that pretty much doesn't mean too much. But this game means a lot and I was happy to be called upon."Taj McWilliams-Franklin had 15 points and 10 rebounds, and Nicole Powell added 13 points for the Liberty, who closed the regular season with 15 wins in 18 games after the All-Star break.Game 2 is Sunday at Indianapolis and Game 3, if necessary will be next Wednesday back in Madison Square Garden.Tamika Catchings scored 18 points, Ebony Hoffman had 13 and Tammy Sutton-Brown added 10 for the Fever, who were in first place heading into the final week but lost their last three and finished one game behind Washington and New York.Indiana shot 53 percent (17 for 32) in the first half, but just 30 percent (9 for 30) over the final 20 minutes. The Liberty outrebounded the Fever 39-24, including 15 offensive boards."There was a period when we missed layup and another layup and another and they came up and answered," Fever coach Lin Dunn said. "Their offensive rebounds finally broke our back. ... If we have any hope of beating this team at home we have to do a better job on the boards."Powell's jumper with 2:15 left in the third quarter gave the Liberty the lead for good as they closed the period with a 9-2 run to take a 66-59 advantage heading to the fourth. The Liberty outscored Indiana 18-12 in the quarter and outshot the Fever 40 percent (8 for 20) to 31 percent (4 for 13).Carson had nine points in a 17-2 spurt that extended New York's lead to 83-63 -- its biggest of the game -- with 2:40 left."Offensively, that kind of lift is a wonderful thing to get from anybody off the bench," Donovan said. "[Carson] has remained focused, composed and confident. When her number was called she just stepped right in and did the job for us at both ends."Hoffman's 3-pointer 14 seconds later -- the Fever's third field goal of the fourth quarter -- ended their scoring drought of 4:39.Pondexter topped the Liberty's previous postseason record of 24 points, set by Tari Phillips against Houston in Game 1 of the WNBA finals on Aug. 24, 2000. Pondexter also tied the team's playoff record for 3-pointers, set by Vickie Johnson on Aug. 24, 2002, in Game 2 of the conference finals against Washington.After shooting 8 for 15 in the first half, Pondexter was just 1 for 8 after the break. Donovan said part of that was because Pondexter was playing point guard a little more, as Leilani Mitchell -- selected as the league's Most Improved Player earlier in the day -- played just 6 1/2 minutes in the second half."Leilani was on the bench a little bit more," Donovan said. "[She] struggled a little bit for a stretch. We put Cappie on [Briann] January, and that changes the tempo. When Cappie is running our point she doesn't get as many opportunities as she did in the first half."The Fever opened the second quarter with an 11-2 run to take a 33-23 lead on Catchings' layup with 7:40 to go in the first half.The Liberty scored the next seven points, pulling within four on Pondexter's 3 about a minute later. Her fifth 3 of the game tied the score at 43-all with 2:05 left, and she made two free throws with less than a second left to give New York a 48-47 lead at the break.
