Human sexuality is the capacity to have erotic experiences and responses. A person's sexual orientation may influence their sexual interest and attraction for another person. Sexuality can have biological, emotional/physical or spiritual aspects. The biological aspect of sexuality refers to the reproductive mechanism as well as the basic biological drive that exists in all species, which is hormonally controlled. The emotional or physical aspect of sexuality refers to the bond that exists between individuals, and is expressed through profound feelings or physical manifestations of emotions of love, trust, and caring. There is also a spiritual aspect of sexuality of an individual or as a connection with others. Sexuality impacts and is impacted by cultural, political, legal, and philosophical aspects of life. It can refer to issues of morality, ethics, theology, spirituality, or religion. Some cultures have been described as sexually repressive.
Interest in sexual activity typically increases when an individual reaches puberty. Some researchers assume that sexual behavior is determined by genetics, and others assert that it is molded by the environment. This is the nature versus nurture debate, in which one can define nature as those behavioral traits that are due to innate characteristics, such as instincts and drives. The concept of nurture can be defined as the environmental factors or external stimuli that influence behavior, emotions, and thinking. Biological and physical differences include the human sexual response cycle among men and women.
Developmental biology is the study of the process by which organisms grow and develop, and is closely related to Ontogeny. Modern developmental biology studies the genetic control of cell growth, differentiation and morphogenesis, which is the process that gives rise to tissues, organs and anatomy, but also regeneration and aging,.
Pubic hair is the hair in the frontal genital area of adolescent and adult humans, located on and around the sex organs, the crotch, and sometimes at the top of the inside of the thighs, in the pubic region around the pubis bone.
Although fine vellus hair is present in the area in childhood, pubic hair is considered to be the heavier, longer and coarser hair that develops during puberty as an effect of rising levels of androgens. Pubic hair is therefore part of the androgenic hair (or body hair) and is a secondary sex characteristic.
Puberty is described as delayed puberty with exceptions when an organism has passed the usual age of onset of puberty with no physical or hormonal signs that it is beginning. Puberty may be delayed for several years and still occur normally, in which case it is considered constitutional delay, a variation of healthy physical development. Delay of puberty may also occur due to malnutrition, many forms of systemic disease, or to defects of the reproductive system (hypogonadism) or the body's responsiveness to sex hormones.
Xenohormones are a group of either naturally occurring or artificially created compounds showing hormone-like properties. Xenohormones are frequently implicated in endocrine disruption.
A social issue (also called a social problem or a social situation) is an issue that relates to society's perception of a person's personal lives. Different cultures have different perceptions and what may be "normal" behavior in one society may be a significant social issue in another society. Social issues are distinguished from economic issues. Some issues have both social and economic aspects, such as immigration. There are also issues that don't fall into either category, such as wars.
Thomas Paine, in Rights of Man and Common Sense, addresses man's duty to "allow the same rights to others as we allow ourselves". The failure to do so causes the birth of a social issue.

Black man worshipping two busted up white women gtfoh o0
How come eeeeevry time I see a black man in Vogue ,Bazzar etc . Be it p.diddy , Lebron the guy from 12 yrs a slave ,they always got them with some white model ? What black brothers with a beautiful sistah is so unstylish or unrealistic to them . I soo don't get this ,it's so not cool !
Holding on to racial issues are never going to initiate change!….Let me mix, lets love, lets love each other!!!
@regis Not letting your voice be heard is not going to initiate change either. just because we're tried of not seeing the mix,love when it comes to black women and black men doesn't mean we not opened minded ,my question is are the editors open minded because I'm always consistently viewing a one sided story on telvevision,mags etc -WAKE UP
@ABW Please let these overly simple-minded people know!
the Osiris/Othello effect!
His posture would have made a huge difference but overall I like ABW point. I endorse it
The posture him a prop versus a man
. Lean on him he'll hold you etc. etc. instead of caress him lean on his shoulder acknowledge him in the shoot

Women Who Conquered the Comics World
Robbins knows something about the glass ceiling for women cartoonists because she first hit it herself in the early 1970s, when she tried to join the male-dominated "underground comix" movement based in San Francisco. After the men cartoonists shut her out, Robbins joined forces with other women cartoonists to create their own women's-lib comic books. She went on to become a well-respected mainstream comic artist and writer, as well as a feminist comics critic who's written myriad nonfiction books on the subject of great women cartoonists and the powerful female characters they created. Naturally, Robbins has spent some time hunting down the original cartoons from the women who paved the way for her career, and as luck would have it, she found the very first comic strip ever drawn by a woman, "The Old Subscriber Calls" by Rose O'Neill, practically in her backyard.

Comics - Beyond the boys club
A bunch of guys standing around trying to sound like a Kevin Smith movie but failing because they're not as clever
Last Sunday, Comic Book Men premiered on AMC, sliding right into the time slot right after the comic book-based Walking Dead series. It's a reality show masterminded by filmmaker and occasional comic book writer Kevin Smith that follows four employees at his New Jersey comic book shop, the Secret Stash, as they deal with the world of comics retail. If the intent is to show comic shop employees as anything other than obnoxious walking sterotypes, it's a complete failure. If, however, it's meant to be the most compelling argument I've ever seen for never setting foot in a comic book store, I have to admit that it's a smashing success. - Chris Sims reviews Comic Book Men.

Jim Shooter, the comics writer and former Marvel Editor-in-Chief has weighed in on DC's comic relaunch, The New 52. Shooter is no stranger to controversy regarding his tenure at Marvel and has received his share of criticism over his handling of female characters. He also claims his analysis is more about the writing and artwork but nevertheless, he has added this comment to the chorus of complaints about the handling of DCs female characters and female fans:
"But, let it be known, personally, I didn't like the way the female characters were portrayed. It's not that I think that there is anything, any situation or any type of character, male or female, that cannot be done if it is done with rare excellence and surpassing skill. The problem is that, too often, comic book writers and artists who belong in creator kindergarten think they're already Ph.D's."

So last week, we offered Tristate Fashion Bomb Readers the chance to win a new hairstyle, courtesy of Noël New York.
After much deliberation, the stylists at Noël New York and I have decided upon the following six finalists:
Who should win the top prize?
You decide…
1. Richelle
Staten Island native Richelle says, "I'm an aspiring PR rep who is always on the go and I have natural hair."
" Since I have no idea what to do with it, I just slap on wigs and weaves, leave my hair alone, and go. Help!"
2. Arlene
Avid reader and commenter Arlene aka Kitty B submitted for the contest! She wrote, " I'm more than certain once you ladies see these pictures you'll see I'm in desperate need of a hair makeover. I have had the same hairstyle and color since I was 21, I'm now 28 (long time). Everytime I say I'm ready to make a change to my hair I chicken out BIG TIME!"
" When I saw the post for this contest I knew I had to jump on it. I'm also extremely self conscious when it comes to my…um how do you say…forehead size…I really need a style that suits me, my head, and gives me that boost!"
3. Dorothy
Dorothy's roommate Latrica actually submitted her pix, with Latrica saying, " I love her to death, but she has the newly natural problem of what to do with a TWA, not to mention there are a couple of different textures competing in her head. So this would be an awesome prize for her to win… it beats me cutting off random straight strands out of her hair. "
4. Jessica
Jessica says, " I recently was laid off from my job along with 15 other people from my office. I am in a slump and think a makeover is what I need to bring me back to life!!!"
5. Anim
Anim types, "I hope you consider me for this contest because I'm constantly going back and forth between braids and full weaves. I would love to rock my hair in a gorgeous, fresh and new style!"
6. Sheena
Lastly, Sheena says, "I would love to get a chance to get my hair styled at Noel salon in Brooklyn, NY. I am natural, have not permed my hair since 2009, and I have constant issues with styling, moisture, and maintaining the health of my hair. Please help! Thank you!!"
Ok! Who do you think should win this fabulous hair and makeup makeover?
I'd say either Sheena or Arlene! I would love to see how these women look madeover.
I vote for Jessica because I would love for the makeover to give her the necessary confidence to get back into the workforce.
Jessica, because getting laid off sucks
I voted Arlene, Her post had me craking up! So cute. Her hair is at a good length, I would love to see how her hair is tranformed.
It came down to Jessica & Sheena. The other ladies just need to check out youtube for help from the "naturalista crew" to whip their hair into shape. Sheena needs help but Jessica needs a pick me up like @Taj said so she got my vote.
My vote is for Arlene, I too have the "Rihanna complex". Would love to see what they do for her.
Oh, this is tragic. Whichever five don't win I'm keeping them in my prayers.
I think Arlene deserves it!
I am voting for Jessica. i want her to win it so bad. Something about this girl that seems sincere. I think that the makeover will really help her out.
second, Richelle
I have to say that going natural is not for everyone but there are so many you tubers out there doing great job teaching natural sistas how to care for their hair.
I feel like the other girls just dont know what to do with their hair. If they watched some hair styling videos they could figure it out but Ms. Jessica def needs a bit of edge to her hair.
My vote is for Jessica- being laid off ain't easy. I hope she finds a new position soon!
Please give it to Arlene because that Top knot is dreadful!
Jessica! New hair for a fresh start
i was thinking arlene before i saw sheena's ends…can we send them both?
Can't wait to see your makeover Arlene =]
Would definitely say Sheena, for sure. She has a sweet face.
Sheena. I agree w| busayo, she looks sweet
I voted Arlene, but Sheena was a close 2nd. I ultimately went with Arlene because she looks much older than her 28 years. Hopefully a hair makeover will liven her up!
The rest of those women need to just do their hair. lol. They don't need a makeover.
Can you send one natural and one other. I was all set to vote for Richele b/c our hairs and problems are similar and I'd love to see what Noel can do with her hair. But Jessica seem to need it more. Hope she gets the makeover and a job :)
I voted 'Jessica'.
Looks like the other ladies are either just lazy with their hair or need a simple trim.
All of them.
I vote Jessica.
She's the only who I think would benefit the most from a "hair over".
LOL…. Give it to them all, they all need it!!!
I vote Jessica! All the rest of beautiful lovely ladies problems can be fixed as mention through youtube hair videos, hair boards/forums, books and going to a local salon for a quick wash and style in their area. To me Jessica needs a bit of a jumpstart after the lay off because the job market and search is a b*tch still!
Jessica or Sheena
@Brittany I agree, Arlene won my vote.
I think Sheena should get the makeover. Her ends are terrible and her hair doesn't look healthy. Plus she does look sweet. Hope you win!
I vote Sheena!!
Sheena hope you win
I hate when only one gets to win ugh! good luck ladies!!!
Arlene made me giggle, good luck girly!
Arlene or Sheena. For jessica, nothing a lil sewn-in can't fix. :-/
I voted for Sheena but I wanted to vote for Arlene as well. I think the other girls could handle it on their own.

I brewed a beer in honor of my friend who recently passed away. We were supposed to brew a beer together before he passed away of cancer, and he loved malty beers, and was of Scottish decent, so I brewed a Belhaven Wee Heavy Clone but added some maple syrup and oats and hit it with brett C in the secondary... He once brewed and oatmeal maple stout that he ruined bad, and this was my tribute to him.... The name of the beer is Auld Lang Syne, and I plan on waxing the bottle tops and making a label, and having one with him, at his grave site, every year on his birthday, which happens to be the day after mine. Just looking for some thoughts and ideas. Thanks everyone!
Sorry about your loss.
One of my friends passed away a few years back and I've always planned on brewing a beer for him. He was a huge movie geek and knew way too much about way too many movies. Anyways, I planned on incorporating film reels and the Dallas Cowboys star into the label somehow because those are the 2 things that remind me most of him.
So maybe a hobby that you guys enjoyed together besides brewing, or something that reminds you of him? This may be too cheesey for you, but I can't wait to get mine completed.
Next to Brew - Who knows...something with EKG
Primary - April's Amber
Bottled - Bee Cave IPA
Bottled - Apfelwein
Bottled - Dirty Blonde (BM's Blonde w/ 2X hops)
Bottled - Ed's Haus
Bottled - Hop Dread Red V1.0 (Red IPA)
that's a great idea... He was big into SciFi, music, traveling, etc. I will have to see what I can come up with that screams something about him while honoring his beer as well!

Eat fish with low levels of mercury, Consumer Reports advises
Consumer Reports is offering its analysis of the most recent government information on mercury in fish.

plans for wood molds
busylizzyJanuary 7, 2007
Does anyone have a link for making wood loaf molds for soap?
I haven't made soap in quite a long time and now the neighbor is raising pigs for butchering. Might as well not let the lard go to waste.
My old recipe makes 8 lbs of soap and I was going to play around with another one I found that makes about 3lbs of soap.
They also have a wood shop and saw mill so wood supplies abound and I thought the black walnut wood I have would make nice molds.

"I'm just not sure what exactly I'm supposed to compare today's housing market to," CNBC real estate reporter Diana Olick writes. The housing market is being driven by an unusual mix of first-time buyers and investors, while the changing effects of government stimulus policies distort the data, she wrote. Meanwhile, a lot of the reports don't count the "shadow inventory" of foreclosed houses, Ms. Olick noted.

Oprah: I was just listening to my old Barbra CDs. You are truly one of the musical legends of our time.
Barbra: I think of myself as a girl from Brooklyn.
Oprah: How can you, when you're sitting in this house, looking at that ocean?
Barbra: I have two sides. For instance, I have no problem giving away lots of money, but the Brooklyn part of me still has to ask, "Is that tile $10.95 a square foot?"
Oprah: I understand. But can you acknowledge what your voice and art have meant to the world?
Barbra: At times. But that's like contemplating your navel. Every time I look out over that ocean and see the lights of the city at night, I am in awe. To have this house now feels like being 21—like I've just made it on Broadway and I get to have all this. On one hand, you're talking about me as a legend. On the other hand, I remember trying to get an apartment on Park Avenue in the early sixties when I was a big star, and either because I was Jewish or an actress, I couldn't get in. I had letters from the mayor, the governor, the attorney general....
Oprah: And you still couldn't get in.
Barbra: Right. And no matter how many sold-out shows I do, I also understand when my records don't sell as many copies anymore. I think, "Well, I've been around for what, 40-some years?" I mean, it's the next person's turn. I could believe it if nobody came to see me.
Oprah: No!
Barbra: I wouldn't like it. But I'm also grateful that I've been around this long. I'm told I've had a number one album in every decade since the sixties.
Oprah: When did you know you had the voice?
Barbra: When I was maybe 5 or 6 years old, the neighborhood girls would sit on the stoop and sing. I was known as the kid who had a good voice and no father.
Oprah: I read that you resented your father for many years because he wasn't there.
Barbra: I wouldn't say resent, but maybe subconsciously. He died when I was 15 months old.
Oprah: Didn't your mother talk about him?
Barbra: No. Later in life, I said, "Why didn't you ever tell me about my father?" She said, "I didn't want you to miss him."
Oprah: Were you angry?
Barbra: Maybe. I just didn't know I was angry.
Oprah: Did your mother remarry?
Barbra: Yes, and my stepfather didn't like me. Maybe because he had three kids from another marriage who didn't live with us. I tried to make him like me for a while. I tried calling him Dad and got him his slippers at night when he came in. I'd get down on my belly and crawl so I didn't walk in front of the TV while he watched wrestling. But did he like me? No way.

This curtain rod was nearly a foot shorter than stated, the box also stated it was 96 inches long and it was actually closer to 80 inches. I exchanged it and the same issue.
Since the rods screw into the wall, you need a screwdriver if you want to take the drapes off. I have no problems with this but I think it was kind of pricey for what I received. But that's what happens when you shop late at night on the internet....
I purchased blackout curtains that are 108" long so I was originally concerned that this rod would hold the weight. It comes with a middle bracket and works great. I was pleasantly surprised with the quality and appearance of this rod and my new blackout curtains and may buy them for more rooms.
The rod is strong and looks very nice. It came with a support bracket for the middle but the rod was strong enough that we didn't need to put it up. I liked it so much that I purchased two additional rods in different sizes to replace some of my older curtain rods in my home. Excellent buy.
Does what it's supposed to. Even with Overstock pricing, it seemed expensive, especially when you realize the finish is painted on - but I couldn't find this style of rod any cheaper and it works great. The curtain curves around and lays flat on the wall. Added bonus that you have some adjustment capability (up to one additional inch) on the depth of the rod from the wall.
I sent these back because UPS bent one and was missing parts. They need to use better quality screws and redesign the rod to be a bit stronger. It is also tricky to angle a screw into the wall mount.
These seem to work well. In an odd turn of events, a colleague needed them more than I did, so I have not used them in my home.
Nice clean look. The ends return to the wall. Works great with grommet top curtains.
I had never thought about getting a rod that allowed the drapes to go 'to' the walls, but obviously that's the only way you can truly achieve room-darkening, no matter how great the drapes are....I got this with the thermal blackout curtains, and it works perfectly to allow my guests to sleep in whenever they want!
They have been up for a while, Love the turn back to the wall. My only problem, I should have purchased one size wider. There is a brace in the middle and that would be fine if your curtains are not too heavy. Had to add another brace...not the fault of the rods...I didn't think it through. I would recommend the rod if the buyer considers the weight of their curtains.

Va. cops nab 'Stoner' on pot charges
Man with the last name Stoner is facing drug charges after police found more than $10K worth of pot plants at his home
Associated Press
ORANGE, Va. — A Virginia man with the last name Stoner is facing drug charges after police found more than $10,000 worth of marijuana plants at his home.
The Orange County Sheriff's Office says 42-year-old Paul Scott Stoner of Unionville is charged with growing marijuana and having a firearm while in possession of more than a pound of marijuana.
Media outlets report that the charges stem from an ongoing investigation related to the alleged sale of marijuana to children in Orange County. Further charges are pending.
Authorities say they acted on a tip that Stoner was selling to children and during the search last Thursday seized marijuana, marijuana plants, drug paraphernalia, prescription drugs, needles, spoons and guns.
Stoner is free on bond. A hearing is set for Aug. 27.

What would you rather have?
A master plumber that can fix your pipes, but have poor writing skills, or a master in Languages , that don't know anything about fixing pipes, or both?
LOL- I'd have to say, I'll happily take the master plumber with poor writing skills any day. My father, bless his heart was a "jack of all trades". In today's world, I think we're missing more of this type of man. I hate waiting around for someone to fix a sink, build a bench or put up a light fixture...
No, it is not a trick question, more like poor writing skills, by me.
It came to mind when I thought about how much time and space it takes to complain about poor writing skills.
I think about a couple of fellows that work on our house. Both were born in "foreign" countries. The came here without knowing much english.
One got a job with a company that replace old pipes for new pipes. He spent years crawling under houses to replace pipes.
The other got a job working as a house painter, inside/outside.
Although they don't know each other, they had the same dream, to become Licensed CA Contractors. They studied and studied and finally they passed the test and have their licenses..Both of them said it was very, very hard work.
I doubt if they will ever learn to speak or write "perfect" English, they may misplace a comma somewhere, but hand them a pipe and a wrench, or a paint brush, they are masters of their trade.
wg, please know I was not referring to the wording of your question when I asked if it was a "trick" question!
IMO, practical knowledge is much more valuable and important than the ability to know/use correct grammar! I truly wish I had skills to do things--simple ones, mind you--around our house, now that DH can't do them. On top of that, he feels badly b/c he can't do them, and gets upset if/when I try! Oh well, we're grateful for what we have; we know it could be much worse.
With Thanksgiving just a week away, we have MUCH to be thankful for.
My DH is a very handy man, he has kept our house working for the past 38 years. He is also highly educated, but he is slowing down because of age,That's why I'm looking for "outside" help.
And mwheel, the day I have to hire an "indoor" handyman, will be a difficult day. I know what you mean.

My problem is that i have a 32GB sdcard and my tablet has 2 separate 1GB internal memories wich is not enough for any decent sized movie or even bigger games. I have rooted my tablet and i know how to edit vold.fstab for the extsd to become internal memory, but the thing is my tablet only recognises the sdcard as 1gb aswell. What is going on, please help me solve this. never happened before
EDIT: well, it took me 3 hours of hair pulling before i post this, and 5 mintues afterwards to figure out whats wrong. When restarting tablet DO NOT have the "quick boot" option on, for that is most likely the culprit to my errors. As soon as i restarded without that my tablet fully recognises then 29.something GB card and now its my internal memory ^^ sorry for the trouble.

Dolly Rebecca Parton (born January 19, 1946) is an American singer-songwriter, instrumentalist, actress, author, and philanthropist, known primarily for her work in country music. Her career began as a child performer on the radio, then recording a few singles from the age of 13. Relocating to Nashville at age 18 in 1964, her first commercial successes were as a songwriter (her songs during this period were covered by numerous artists,including Bill Phillips and Kitty Wells). She rose to prominence in 1967 as a featured performer on singer Porter Wagoner's weekly syndicated TV program; their first duet single, a cover of Tom Paxton's "The Last Thing on My Mind", was a top-ten hit on the country singles chart and led to several successful albums before they ended their partnership in 1974. Moving towards mainstream pop music, her 1977 single "Here You Come Again" was a success on both the country and pop charts. A string of pop-country hits followed into the mid-1980s, the most successful being her 1981 hit "9 to 5" (from the film of the same name) and her 1983 duet with Kenny Rogers "Islands in the Stream", both of which topped the U.S. pop and country singles charts. A pair of albums recorded with Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris were among her later successes. In the late 1990s, she returned to classic country/bluegrass with a series of acclaimed recordings. Non-musical ventures include Dollywood, a theme park in Pigeon Forge in the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee, and her efforts on behalf of childhood literacy, particularly her Imagination Library, as well as Dolly Parton's Dixie Stampede and Pirates Voyage.

6 Ways to Spot-Proof Your Skin
In office To see faster results or nix severe spots, or if you're prone to pesky breakouts and PIH, let a dermatologist customize a peel that's best and safest for your skin. (Too-strong at-home peels could do more harm than good by inflaming skin and causing more pigment.) For example, a mild in-office salicylic acid peel can lessen inflammation, Dr. Sadick says. But you may need one every three weeks or so. Cost: about $100 to $500 per peel.

Xpost; Input on finished for unfitted kitchen?
I think I am pretty set on my layout. By way of background:
We expect to eat most lunches and dinners in the dining room, which has a china closet and a buffet with storage, oh, and the ocean view!
I also have a pantry for storage, in addition to the built ins in the butler's pantry and the built in china closet in the kitchen. The two windows you see along the appliance wall will probably be replaced with slightly larger ones (and, in the case of the sink area, higher windows, too)
My real question are in re finishes. I'd love input.
Here is rough draft moodboard: (the sink and appliances are definites, and the built-ins stay, and, I am trying to keep the wood trim and doors)
Here are my questions (see numbers in green on the layout)
FINISH QUESTION 1. This area has a sink with drainboard, a small amount of formica counter, and sits on white metal cabinets and an old dishwasher. (this is how it looks now)
I want to rip out the lower portion, and put a pull out trash on the left, sink in middle, and dishdrawer to the right.
I can't and don't want to match the other cabinetry in the "L" of the Butler's pantry? What should the new lower cabs look like, and what countertop?
FINISH QUESTION 2. This is designed to be about 4 feet of uninterrupted work space (coffee maker, toaster and microwave go in the existing pantry "L"). I was thinking of a Boos island piece, but we have a trusted carpenter who can do something totally custom.
So something like this island below, BUT, painted off white (we have so much wood already), and topped with marble or stainless. I don't care about marble durability as this would be a remnant size and so not crazy to replace.
FINISH QUESTION 3. This is the spot for our (second) FP Tall dishdrawer ( a first one is in the BP). It needs to be placed in a cabinet and the cabinet needs a surface. I think this (smaller) surface should be a nice, very thick slab of butcher block. For cutting veggies and fruit, you are right next to my double drainboard sink. But what should the cabinet itself look like.
Thanks in advance for your input and ideas!
FWIW, here are some before pictures of the kitchen and bulter's pantry.
You can't see it, but this is the "L" of the Butler's pantry. Uppers to one side are glass, others are open shelves. Counters are same wood as lower cabs.
Everything to be gutted and probably new windows here.
I have not decided about the table yet...
PS here is a better fabric photo, but this is not very important at this juncture of course!
Here is a link that might be useful: Please help me with my new unfitted kitchen, thanks!

mtnrdredux. I must preface this, with I was 50/50 with giving you this link. I absolutely love the look, but in no way can I condone ordering from them. I found them 3 years ago before we really got into the gutting of our kitchen.
My issue is I went to use them a couple of months ago and their site was down, I left a message at the phone number I had for them. I was heart broken. I did some more searching and found another web site with the exact same photographs. I mean the exact same, even the "workbench photos". So I called them. I was told by that company that the other was no longer in business and it was a husband and wife and they split up.
I sent my designs for a quote. Meanwhile the other company called me back (the wife) and gave a completely different story. I sent her the designs and said I wouldn't get in the middle of a divorce, but would treat them as two companies bidding. One company got back to me with a quote on the wrong project (my design, wrong feet, wrong wood, wrong finish, wrong doors.... yeah I have hopes they will get the project correct) one called me back every week for 3 weeks to say they hadn't forgot me, then forgot me and never quoted me. Really, how long should it take to quote 3 cabinets.
I think my order was just too small for either to care about. You would be in the same boat.
Because of the lead time involved to begin with, I have decided not to chase these people around. I certainly would not recommend ordering from them. But the style is fabulous for an unfit kitchen. If you have a cabinet builder in your area maybe they could do something similar for you.
Here is a link that might be useful: unfit cabinets
Hmm, I can't imagine there are a lot of Amish divorces .... wonder if they were appropriating the good reputation of that group. Thanks for the link, and sorry you got such a run -around!
It looks far fancier than what I want. The home is a 1906 Dutch Colonial beachhouse. I want the kitchen to look like it was "redone" in say, the 40s, but still in a utilitarian fashion for primary use by domestic help.
LOL, no they are not Amish. They are designers who outsource to the Amish and Mennonite builders in the area.
I think the upper cabinets and the whole collection together makes it seem overly fancy. The cabinets we were going for were very simple lower cabs with wood tops, no uppers, simple doors, simple feet. Kind of like the picture here without the upper pantry portion. More of the basic cabinets, not the fancy, but still off the ground to look like furniture and keep the feel of the unfit kitchen.
We were already custom building the floor to ceiling built in, so we decided to make the few cabs we needed from them ourselves. I hate to admit we haven't started building them yet. We just finally finished installing our stained shiplap walls behind the stove and sink area.
We are redoing our entire house all at the same time and got a little sidetracked working in the master bedroom and bath area wiring for electric before it gets too dark early in the evening to do work up there.
Ahh, the joys of renovation ;-) Someday I may miss it all. Back to full force on the kitchen in a couple of weeks.
Oh, I love shiplap! You must post it when you are done, it sounds like a cool kitchen.
I don't have any answers for you, but just a suggestion re your layout.
If you decide to change the windows, would it be possible to have 3 windows, the size as the one in the butlers? You could then have the sink under the middle one, move DW to the left and on its left have something like your work island (maybe smaller) to keep some towels, DW detergent, etc.nearby .

Hi: 12° Lo:4°
By Steve Carpenter Wednesday 19 December 2012 Updated: 21/12 16:52
THE COMPANY which runs the Ricoh Arena is confident a deal with the Sky Blues over the current rent issue can be resolved before next week's deadline.
Stadium company ACL, which is jointly owned by Coventry City Council and the Alan Higgs Charity, issued the football club with a statutory demand earlier this month to pay over £1 million-worth of unpaid rent within 21 days or face a winding-up order.
The action was taken after the club rejected an offer by ACL to reduce the annual rent by almost two thirds to just £400,000 and they also gave them ten years to pay back the money owed.
Since then, the club have confirmed they have looked into the possibility of moving away from the stadium to fulfil their fixtures as tensions between the two parties reach boiling point after months of negotiating.
The Observer reported last week that talks had began again to discuss the issue and those meetings are ongoing as the Boxing Day deadline draws ever closer.
A statement from ACL confirmed: "ACL can confirm that they recently met with the owners of Coventry City Football Club, the Mayfair-based hedge fund Sisu and its chief executive Joy Seppala, to discuss the outstanding rent issue.
"Discussions are continuing. ACL remain hopeful of a resolution but, as yet, no agreement has been reached."
