Title: Ground cover for a dry slope in PA
Answered by: Anne Bossart
QUESTION:My side yard is a slope with rocky (a lot of small serpentine rocks) soil under white and black pine trees. I can grow lots of weeds :-) but would like to plant a low (0-3in) evergreen ground cover that is dog and cat safe and does not attract the neighborhood skunks or white footed mice (this area rivals Lyme CT for Lyme disease carried by ticks on mice and deer). I am in West Chester Pa. Thanks for your help!! I have been struggling with this slope for 7 yrs.
This is a really tough challenge and I am surprised to hear that you can even grow weeds. Although I am familiar with your area (not all the Green Gurus live in Austin, TX; we just wish we did!) I decided to search our Native Plant Database to see what native species fit your criteria. Entering your conditions into the Combination Search (PA, dry conditions, 0-1 ft, evergreen and plants of all habits and duration) a list of only 3 plants is generated:
Coreopsis lanceolata (Lanceleaf coreopsis), which is really not what you are looking for, but makes the list because it is so adaptable and is evergreen in parts of its very wide native range. It would be a great plant for your perennial flower garden.
Lycopodium digitatum (Fan clubmoss), whose "cedar-like appearance, low growth, evergreen leaves, and spreading habit make it ideal for the well-drained eastern woodland landscape. Once established, it spreads quickly by stems that lie just at the surface of the soil."
Mitchella repens (Partridgeberry), "A most attractive woodland creeper with highly ornamental foliage, it can be used as a groundcover under acid-loving shrubs."
Not a lot of choices, but either of these plants, if you can find them in retail nurseries, would be a great alternative to weeds or gravel (your other two choices). Neither plant would be a risk to your pets, but we can't guarantee that native wildlife will avoid them. Native animals and native plants are usually found together.
Visit our Suppliers Directory to search for Native Plant nurseries in your area or check with the Pennsylvania Native Plant Society to find sources of these plants or other natives. Although you may find other ground covers in nurseries that will survive in your conditions (although you do say you've been fighting this battle for a long time), we gardeners have learned the hard way about alien ground cover species that become invasive over time under ideal conditions.

Big Lots has a 120 Gallon Composter for $36!
I just got the ad today, not sure if it is just local or not. Probably not all that great but for that price, I'll check it out this afternoon.
No all I have is the ad:
120 Gallon Composter
Compare to :
You Save:
60% [$53.99]
Advertised price good Saturday, April 14, through Saturday, April 21, 2012 or while quantities last.
Removable side paddles to gather compost
Hose hole
My guess is that it is a lot like the Soil Saver bin. I have 2 and there are 2 panels on the bottom that can be removed for harvesting the compost, at least in theory. The compost that is the most done is in the middle on the bottom so you have to plow through some other stuff to get to it. The advantage I have found to this bin over hardware cloth is the contents stay moister which is a huge bonus when living in a dry climate.
I need to see a photo of that. I can not stand to watch a video called "how to compost" and it is like there are ads first, I would have to watch. I need to know the name of it, so I can look that up. We have a big lots, but I did get the cone today, but have not opened the box yet.
Soil saver bin is a turkey. Filled with vents for bugs to come in and square is bad. I bet the panels fall off all the time, if you are doing serious hot composting in that. It looks very cheaply made. If it just like the soil saver bin.
I was not able to see the Big Lots bin, but a comment about the Soil Saver: We've been using one at our office building for food waste composting for several years. It is relatively sturdy with a locking lid (we lost lids off the big round Home Composter in high winds). It holds together very well and the sides have never come apart. We do ignore the bottom doors, I think these are generally useless on compost bins anyway. At turning time we dig it out about halfway and gently tip it over to get the rest out. It is sturdy enough to lay on its side without fear of breaking it, and the square shape hasn't bothered us any. It's pretty good as plastic bins go. Just my 2 cents.
Here is the same one at Target for double the price
From the Target pic it looks like the plastic might be a bit thin, but as long as one isn't expecting premium quality it looks like it should work. Certainly can't beat the price, if you want a plastic bin.
Bought the same com poster a few years ago at BJ's for $40. It did hold up for a couple of years but the plastic was so thin it started tearing in cold weather. If you take good care of it you might get a few years out of it, but the "paddles" are more of a pain than a blessing.
Yeah. I see what you mean. Im going to use it for grass clippings and shredded junk mail. And maybe leaves. Im just going to let everything sit in there for months and see what happens. Maybe Ill use the "paddles" to turn it up once in a while.
Its so thin!! I cant believe it. But it seems better than nothing. I wonder if I should leave the floor in it or take it out so that it can access the earth??
I bought that same bin from Home Depot a couple years ago. It's very flimsy and is already falling apart. The top blows open in the wind, but that was easily solved with a bungee cord. Racoons are able to open the side doors, so I had to duct tape them. The other day the wind blew it over (it didn't have much in it) and it fell apart. It's going in the garbage this week. I'll put it with the recycling, hopefully they'll take it.
Personally I'd rather make a pallet or wire mesh bin or just throw stuff in a pile, rather than spend $ on flimsy plastic that has to be thrown out after a year or two. Just my humble opinion.
Blazeaglory, the only problem I had with the bottom was that it came off. Without the bottom attached it's even flimsier. Save yourself the money & aggravation and skip this one. Mine is sitting at the curb waiting to be put out of it's misery as I type.

March 30, 2015
DALLAS (January 2, 2014) Dallas police shot and killed a resident of a high-rise apartment complex in the city's Uptown neighborhood early Thursday after he opened fire on officers who responded to a report of a burglary.
Police later identified the man as Dallas lawyer Michael Edward Schmidt, 47.
Deputy police Chief Gil Garza said Schmidt told a building employee that his apartment was being burglarized.
The worker called police.
Meanwhile, Schmidt barricaded himself in a hallway near the lobby until officers arrived, authorities said.
Police are trying to determine why he shot at officers, who then returned fire.
The gunfire shattered lobby windows of the luxury Glass House residences.
Schmidt died at the scene.
Police say a weapon was recovered.
Further details weren't immediately released.
Schmidt joined his father's law firm in 1992 after earning a degree from the Oklahoma City University School of Law, according to a biography on the firm's website.

pre-finished vs site-finished floor
What are the pros and cons of pre-finished vs site-finished floors? Our last house had site finished red oak but builder suggests pre-finished floors in the new house. I assume oak is the least expensive. Is that correct? I liked our oak floors but would like a medium brown color floor and I'm not sure I like the way oak looks when stained. Any suggestions for a medium brown floor and what are your thoughts on pre-finished vs site-finished?
Prefinished in my opinion has only one pro. Install it then your done. You can move back in right away.
List of cons is vastly larger.
- If your sub floor is un even it can translate into the wood unless you properly prep the sub floor
-doing a buff n coat is difficult(adhesion problems)
-the finish is not any better
-micro bevels(not really a con if you like the look. I dont)
-a pain to sand down if you decide.
-damage a board and you need to replace the board cant sand it unless you get a pro but that can be tricky to match stain and finish
Site finished can dirty and the wait time inbetween coats but all the pre finished cons could be site finished pros
Your builder doesnt offer site finished for two reasons.
Either he hasnt found a decent company to do it. Or he doesnt want to deal with it.
Oak generally is cheapest. But some times you can find deals on maple.
Maple stained if done properly looks really cool. But if you want a dark natural colored wood walnut works although its softer than oak or maple. Or for more money you could go exotic and get cumuru or Ipe or many others.
Generally pre-finished floors finish is much superior to site finished. There are drawbacks such as refinishing and replacing sections do to accidents but it sure is more convenient to install..
Pre finished floors finish is more superior??? You havent seen too many floors then. This past year alone ive dealt with over 75 people complain that the finish isnt what they expected. It scratches it dents it wears just like any other finish. It is not a superior finish. It about even with your average site finishes.
The 30 year garuntee you see on the boxes at the store or in advertisements are misleading.
Im all for prefinished floors if you decide having the sanding and finishing is too big of a hassel but you shouldnt decide prefinished based on lies or misleading information.
Gregmills, How about maintaining a modicum of decency on this forum. Calling people liars and Assuming they don't know what their talking about should be left at the bar where you may have just come from.
I have laid hundreds of floors and have some idea of what I'm talking about. Pre-finished floors have dozens of coats put on in ideal situations with Aluminum oxide added for a superior, yes, superior finish. Disagree if you wish but don't be disagreeable
A factory finish, with a dozen coats under superb conditions with Aluminum oxide and UV hardened is a superior finish to site finished floors. Don't take my word for it, do your homework. You will find most people in the trade agree.
I've been a remodeler for 35 years and I know what holds up and what doesn't. I've sanded down pre finished and it is twice the work of site finished.
People in the trade have no advantage in using "advertising puffery"
Dozens of coats? The standard is around 7. For someone whos laid "hundreds" of floors maybe you should take a monent and read the box. And have you ever read the warranty info? Essentially once you walk on it the warranty is void. (Exageration yes but not by far)
Theres nothing wrong with prefinished wood. Just its for people who dont want the sanding and on site finishing or for those who dont have the skill to sand and finish correctly.
People who dont do their homework and see big words in big letters saying "50 YEAR" , "ALUMINUM OXIDE" they get stooped into believing its superior to everything else.
If it was as superior as you claim every flooring contractor would be using it instead of water bourne and poly urethanes.
I just caught that. So because I called you out on your ill informed opinion you resort to calling me an alcoholic?
Not everyone in the trade is a drinker or drug addict. Most us are hard working folk who take pride in the skill of sanding and finishing.
And you say you have been remodeling for 35 yrs? Great! I would never think that because you have a bad opinion that you must be an alcoholic. I wouldnt stoop so low as to assume anything about you.
You have done hundreds of floors. Ive done 3000+ floors.
We sell sand and finish solutions and prefinished products and lots of wood in general. I will not get into the emotionally charged disputes on this thread as its just not proper. I will say, that if you ask anyone that sands and finishes you will get a biased opinion and rightfully so. If you ask a retailer that only sells prefinished, you will also get a biased opinion. There are many pros for both sides and some cons for both also. We at times give demonstrations that are amazing. If a consumer wants pros and cons..email me with concerns and expectations and I will gladly give an unbiased opinion as to the directions they should explore. Good Luck.
Gregmills, If you had started out decent you would have been treated decently.
Most installers and most websites that deal with flooring and websites like "This Old House" will all concur with what I said. There are pros and cons for both but for durability pre-finished is best.

First guests from airbnb, definitely commendable and nice people. Would love to host them again!
Alex and Nuria were wonderful guests. I am so happy they chose to stay at my apartment. From the moment they arrived I knew they were good people and if I either lived in Barcelona or they lived here I am sure we would run in similar circles.
I wish they had stayed longer if only so that they could have explored the city more and seen more live music.

Balthasar was new to Airbnb, so I asked him for references etc, which he provided promptly. He made all the payments promptly through airbnb. There was a misunderstanding about cleaning, which was resolved, and in general he communicated with us quickly when required. I think he appreciated the location and special character of the apartment and the area, and showed a lot patience in the first few days when we were still completing the fit out of the kitchen, and getting in some of the furniture.
This was our first experience of hosting on airbnb, so we all learned a lot from the experience ! The house rules were not fully developed when the reservation started, so our feedback on this point takes this into account.

U.K. regulators have closed their investigation into Hewlett-Packard's botched acquisition of Autonomy, a British software company that HP has accused of inflating its value and of improper accounting.
Autonomy founder Mike Lynch says he has obtained a Hewlett-Packard document that shows how differences in accounting standards, not fraud on Autonomy's part, are to blame for the debacle surrounding HP's acquisition of the company.
Autonomy's former chief financial officer has claimed that Hewlett-Packard is accusing him and other ex-employees of fraud in order to cover up its own failings in the disastrous 2011 acquisition.
Hewlett-Packard has fired back at a former Autonomy executive who is attempting to block the settlement of a number of shareholder lawsuits filed over HP's disastrous acquisition of the infrastructure software vendor.
The end of each year sparks an occasion for rumination on the past, as well as a longing gaze into the future. We shined up our crystal ball, rubbed our chin for a while, and sought opinions from industry analysts on what the future holds for the ent...
Hewlett-Packard's bombshell revelation that it would take a US$8.8 billion non-cash writedown after allegedly discovering major accounting fraud related to its Autonomy business unit has rocked the tech world.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Who are the Algerian Hostage Takers? [VIDEO]
It's one of the biggest international hostage crises in decades, but just who is behind the Algerian gas field attack?
FOX News Radio's Simon Owen reports from London:
Audio clip:
The White House says it's unable to confirm any claims of responsibility for the kidnapping, but it's thought it was ordered by Mokhtar Belmokhtar, a veteran Islamist guerrilla fighter. He used to be a senior al-Qaeda figure in Algeria's neighbor, Mali, but it's understood he was pushed from his position in October.
He went on to set up his own group, and it's thought that's the one responsible for this attack. Belmokhtar is known for his appearance – he only has one eye. He's also know for being a smuggler. His group, known as the Signed-in-Blood Battalion, says the attack is revenge after France sent troops to Mali to fight rebels backed by al-Qaeda.
In London, Simon Owen, FOX News Radio.

Persian Shield (Strobilanthes dyerianus) --aka the 'stick'
Persian Shield (Strobilanthes dyerianus) -- how does one keep it going over the winter? Picked a nice big one up last fall. Put it in an unobstructed SW facing window for the winter. Over the course of the winter it dwindled to a tall stick -- every leaf and branch died. I suspect it may have simply been too dry in my apt. My humidity tops out at 30% -- and that's with 2 humidifiers in the room. So how do any of you in the northern climes do it?
Btw, said stick is still green so perhaps at some point it will decide to put out some leaves...
Not sure if I have the best advice/ideas here, but nobody's replied yet and it's been a few days, so...
I'm wondering if it might be light. Some plants just need more than you get in the home, even if you have a fairly good window. This might cause the plant to go dormant, even if they don't typically do this in nature. Put it outside this summer, see if it leafs up/resumes normal growth, and maybe try a grow light next winter.
Also, were the leaves getting crispy before falling off? I was under the impression that if it's a humidity issue, they generally do, whereas if they just drop off it's either light or watering.
Paul, Persian Shield is not an easy plant to grow indoors.
Most outdoor gardeners plant PS in their garden, then come autumn, they end up in the compost.
They're sold here, (IL) as annuals.
As long as the trunk is green, your PS is alive.
During winter/dark months, place your PS in the 'sunniest' window, but there are other demands this plant requires.
Humidity is needed, but not as much as certain tropicals, eg, Gardenias.
More important is keeping your PS in a cooler room away from a heating system/vent. Too hot, goodbye plant.
Artificial light helps. Since you're in MI, your climate is similar to ours which means week after week of dark, cloudy days.
A semi-unheated enclosed porch, facing south or west would be ideal.
Some people fertilizer in winter, I don't. Unless an annual is showing signs of growth/flowering, especially Geraniums, they get half-strength doses. Now that days are longer, they get 1/4-1/2 strength, w/All Purpose fertilizer.
PS love the outdoors in spring/summer. Will yours be going outside? If so, place in a shady spot. Super shady. They're heavy drinkers, some need daily watering. So, keep watch, especially on sunny and/or hot days. Good luck, Toni
Paul, I've kept them going in a cool sun room over the winter and had them flower in the fall. I've also forced them into complete dormancy in a dry basement, they've come back from the roots in the springtime when the pots were placed outside. Don't give up on it to quickly! What I have noticed is the leaves are not as dark beginning in the second season. Maybe I've given them too much light or not enough fert. Anyway, here's a photo of the flowers if you can keep them going.
We grow these in the ground here, sometimes they are annuals if winter is too cold and sometimes they are perennials, LOL. But once they freeze to the ground, they never come back as nice as they were originally, so they might as well be annuals anyway. I plant them sometimes, knowing that they only have a 50/50 chance. We plant them in part shade, and they tolerate temps in the 90's without problems. They will burn in full FLorida sun unless gradually acclimated.
"What I have noticed is the leaves are not as dark beginning in the second season. Maybe I've given them too much light or not enough fert."
Noticed this with my A. Squarrosa too, another plant that's mostly dormant and non-leafy indoors in the winters. Kind of suspecting iron chlorosis.
Chaz, your PS is lovely. I've never seen one in flower. How long do blooms last?
What did you do to keep them dormant? In the basement? That's very interesting. How long did you keep them dormant? And what did you do to bring them out?
Its flowers are really pretty. I love their pod-like bases. This year, once PS's are available in garden centers, one will follow me home..lol..Toni
Thanks, the flowers seem to last a long time but what happens is they begin to separate from the bracht and stay on the plant if not disturbed until they completely brown! So they are there for a long time, and the spike takes forever to finish blooming! They usuallay go from around thanksgiving until end of February. When I let them go dormant they are put in a dark, coolish spot and kept very dry, maybe a cup or two of water a month. The stems die back and the plant resprouts from the roots when it's ready to re-grow again, ususally just in time to be put out for the summer. The photo of the flowers is from a couple of years ago, that plant never got it's purple coloring back but did retain the silver on the leaves. I left it out this past winter so I'll have to start fresh again this year. Also, the brachts are very sticky and have a scent very similar to cannibis if touched.
Well the 'stick' is starting to leaf out. Not sure just how good or bad it may look once all is said and done, but it is alive and making a bid for survival.
Amc, the leaves would get very convex with dry edges and fall. The leaves were not brown and still seemed to have some crispness to them
Chaz, how tall did yours get after it resprouted from the roots? When did it start resprouting?
Toni, surprised at what you said about shade. My sis had them planted in a west facing bed that got direct sun for much of the afternoon. They did well.
I don't remember exactly when they started resprouting, I think sometime late march early april, but they didn't actively grow until they got placed in a warmer area over 60 degrees F. They grew to about 24 inches tall each season, no bigger than that but with the multiple branches and side shoots they were really full looking plants. Only difference from first year is the purple colour was gone, they were basically silver and green.
Anyone still checking this thread?
FYI, you can easily root cuttings of persian shield, but keeping them over the winter is tough. I started with something like eight or ten cuttings last fall and come spring I had three live plants.
Who knows about dieback in persian shield? Both last year and again this year, the plants get large with beautiful, healthy foilage, and then one day I come home and one looks wilty, is dead within a day's time. It doesn't seem to be connected to too much or too little water - of four plants in a row, one in the middle will just be gone, the other three fine. ???
Also FYI, these look great paired with purple salvia & purple stokesia.
I just bought mine last weekend. It is still in the pot it came in, sitting on my lanai, dying. Very quickly. I don't think I've even got a stick left... Lowe's labels them as Florennials. Mine shoulda said a Day or Two. =D
The local Hy-Vee Grocery store was selling these for $1 each so I just bought 4 today. I'll plant 3 outside and one in a pot to try to bring it in over the winter. After reading this though I'm not hopefull it will survive an Iowa winter even indoors.
Any other suggestions on things that might help this guy make it through the winter in my living room besides keep it watered and get it sun?
Well -- for those who may be interested -- "the stick" did okay over that summer and was on my unsheltered SW balcony with no problem. This past winter, it once again lost all leaves and branches. However the stem did not leaf out this spring rather it sent a new growth up from the base/roots. It looks like the old stem has died. Not sure why .... possibly I gave it less water over the winter but I can't say for certain. It is once again on the sunny balconey. I'll try to get a pic taken of it at some point.
I purchased one plant last summer. I read this post and since I used in in a patio pot I brought it in for the winter and put it in the basement. My basement is 60 degrees. I watered it about once a month. A few leaves stated on it until about Jan.
I put it outside a month ago because we had a warm Spring. It is coming back and it is as dark as it was last summer.
I will take pic of it when it stops raining.
Dear Paul, I suspect it may be just too cool here in San Francisco, I have tried to grow Persian Shield for years. Although I get it to survive it mostly just lanquishes. In the house it is mostly dormant (we have little extra heating...stays around 65) but radiant heat to the humidity is always high. I am in a warm SF microclimate so outside it starts to grow a bit in June/July then goes dormant again in November. Not this year yet because it has been so oddly rainy and cool. My Persian Shields are always puny and pathetic. I probably will give up unless I build a solarium. If you find a way to grow one here to reveal it! Jeff
Here's a pic of "the stick" as of today
Don't know that I can be of much help, Jeff. Your conditions are bound to be different from mine. I grow mine for the summer outside in full direct sun from 8 or 9am to around 1 or 2 pm on my balconey. My balconey gets quite hot truth be told so I put most of my plants on plant stands to keep the pots from sitting on the hot surface of my balconey. (My balconey literally gets hot enough to hurt my feet.)
Mine was kept in a 60-65 degree basement laundry room all winter. The leaves all died but the stems did not die. They grew new leaves and more stems grew from the roots.
I gave it deep watering twice a month since my laundry room is so warm.
It has been on my hot sunny all day sun patio. It gets lots of water in that type of heat and sun. End of year 2 this is what it looks like.
Paul, hey, you were able to over-winter your PS.
Do you have a garden? If so, next spring, why not plant it in the garden. You'll be shocked how tall/full it'll be by the time you uplift and pot.
If it branches out, take a few cuttings. PS cuttings are very easy to root..it can be done in water.
Marquest, your PS is gorgeous. Plants do fantastic when grown in ground. Are you planning on bringing indoors this winter? Their colors are beautiful..Purple and silver.
You both did fantastic jobs..Toni
Nope. No garden, Toni. I'm an apartment dweller so that isn't even an option. I've brought it inside and it is already starting to drop some leaves. Assuming all goes well, this will be the 3rd year the "stick" will overwinter indoors.
I've never had any luck rooting cuttings from PS.
Marquest..Your patio IS huge!!! Your Cannas are beautiful. Where do you find such tall types? They remind me of Gingers. Very nice..Is that an Australian Tree Fern on the left side table??
Paul, do you have a cool room? Is your heat turned on yet? That's one problem with tropicals/sub-tropicals/tender-tropicals, or in our zones, annuals. When they're brought indoors after a summer outside, there's less chance of leaf drop if set indoors before heat is turned on.
But if a plant is placed in a cool, semi-unheated room, like an enclosed porch, there's less stress.
Lol, the stick.
Good luck to you both, Toni
Thank you Toni, I have been growing the same cannas for 8 years. I do not put them to sleep totally. I put them in the laundry room and give them a little water so they do not go totally asleep so when I put them outside I do not have to wait for them to start growing. They get huge.
The fern in the pot is a common garden Ostrich Fern. LOL. I do everything I can think of to make the patio look tropical. It is a big thing 30' x 60' so I need lots of plants.
Marqest..Thanks, I'll have to try the 'little watering' Cannas in winter. I've got one in the back room, leaves are dead. should I give it a drink now?
Your fern is 30'-60' or 3' - 6'?? Ostrige gets tall, but 60'? Lol..Your fern certainly looks nice in a pot. Does it die back in winter? Do you bring it indoors or leave out?
I have a zillion O. Ferns..they're growing everywhere. lol. Started w/7, all in back, in a row..now they're in back, side of the house, and front..make sense? lol
Paul, what type of critters do you have? Toni
No Toni I was talking about the patio being 30 feet x 60 feet. The Ostrich Fern in the pots in the sun and lots of water grow 4-5 feet. They look tropical in the summer and like you said they grow like weeds so I always have penty to use on the patio.
I would start watering the cannas in December. I do not bring mine in until frost takes them down. Usually in my area that will be about Nov. I start gtiving them a sip of water after Christmas.
How long can tarantulas live? And what do you feed them?
From all I've read, no one is quite sure -- there were so few raised from hatchlings in captivity until rather recently. Like most animals, those in the wild are believed to have shorter life spans due to diseases, predators and parasites.
Then too, the species makes a difference. But in general, males typically live only about 5 years whereas females can live for 20+ years.
I feed mine mainly crickets. Over the summer, I occasionally supplement with japanese beetles or grasshoppers that trespass upon my balconey plants.

Please Help Select Counter-Walnut or Brown Antique?
Please help with my decision on the type of countertop to use in the laundry room adjacent to the kitchen (see doorway to left on photo below). Although it is the laundry room, I am hoping to make it appear to be a scullery or butler's pantry. The cat's litterbox is in there, so we must leave the door open and that side is completely visible from the kitchen.
We have Danby marble and a Walnut butcher block on the island (yes-it's a barrier island, but this is a facelift; not a remodel. It�s what we can afford and I�m happy with the layout). We have selected Brown Antique to replace the current laminate on the perimeter in the kitchen. Should we use walnut butcher block for the counter in the laundry room or continue with the brown antique. The cabs in the laundry room are black.
Thank you!

Visiting Tokyo over the new year.
I'll be visiting Tokyo for the first time over the new year. I arrive on 12/30 and plan to return to the states on 1/06. Looking for suggestions on where to stay and what to do (I understand most shops and attractions will be closed on and around the new year).
Help me find a winter coat in Tokyo!
I'll be in Tokyo in a few weeks, and I want to buy a new winter coat while I'm there. Budget: $250ish. I'm looking for something fairly simple, classic and durable. I'm not going to have too much time for shopping, so I'd like suggestions of specific shops I could visit, and if possible, links to online stores so that I can have an idea of what to expect.

Best gadget and toys from Tokyo?
I would be visiting Tokyo in three week's time. Can you tell me about any must-buy weird, cool or geeky gadgets that I could get during my time there, and where to get it ? Bonus point if it's easy to figure out even if it's in japanese, or if it has english interface, and not too expensive.

Cheapest way from Tokyo to Kumamoto?
Last minute Japan travel: after making an error with timing I need to arrange one-way travel from Tokyo to Kumamoto quite quickly. What are the cheapest options? I have looked into flights and trains (for the 17th of August) and both seem expensive (about £200-£250 a ticket). I am in the UK at the moment. Would it be worth waiting until we arrive in Japan? Perhaps trying to get last minute flights at the airport? [more inside]

Back walk massage in Tokyo?
I've got a bad back and neck from playing piano and double-bass a large part of my life, and lately working a lot at the computer. Since I'm in Tokyo for another couple of days or so, I thought I'd ask around for the absolute best massage in town, that also won't break the bank. (It's a pretty sizable traveler's bank, but I'm not rich.) I've seen the (in?)famous massage where a woman (men are too heavy me guess) walks on the back and cracks the joints. Is that something recommended? Looks darn cool! :)

What is Showa Day like in Tokyo?
I'm planning a trip to Tokyo mid-April and I'll be flying back to LHR on Apr 29th, which is Showa Day and the beginning of the Golden Week.
I'm told Narita is best avoided on that day, so I'm wondering if it's better to fly back a day earlier or, alternatively, a day later to make the most of any Showa day festivals.
Are there any festivals going on in Tokyo on that day? and, do museums, shops, etc stay open during Showa day?
