Our house is a four bedroom, three bath residence located just a short walk from the base of Boyne Mountain. It encompasses all the comforts of home--stress not included (see amenities listed below). The property is surrounded by vacant lots, offering a notable degree of seclusion despite the close proximity to the resort.
Whether you are an expert skier, or just beginning, Boyne Mountain can easily accommodate your needs. Lessons and equipment rental are available for all ages. Other winter activities include snowmobiling, cross country skiing, and sledding/tubing. Avalanche Bay, Michigan's largest indoor water park, is located inside the main lodge along with an arcade and several restaurants for families or couples alike to enjoy.
In need of further relaxation? Look no further than Solace Spa, located in Boyne Mountain's main lodge. Choose from various soothing aromatherapy treatments for just you or for you and a companion. For rejuvenation, there is also an indoor fitness center and heated outdoor pools for hours of relaxation, in the winter or summer!
Looking to rent in the summer? Great! Boyne Mountain has two championship golf courses--the Monument and the Alpine. There are also several other courses within a 20-minute drive of the resort. Other summer activities include: jet skiing, kayaking, sailing, boating, biking, hiking, fishing, etc.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call. Our calendar is filling up fast, so don't wait to book your dates!

We rented this house for a Fri/Sat/Sun ski weekend. The house was very nice, spacious, and clean. We had 6 adults and one child and more then enough room (actually much room to spare) in the house. The house is very close to all activities, we went tubing, skiing, and to Avalanche Bay. Each activity was a minute or two car drive away, parking was easy enough, especially with the Shuttle and/or Tram to take you to the ski resort. The owner of the property is extremely friendly and helpful. We had a great weekend and enjoyed our stay at this lovely house. I would love to stay here again! PS...there is a beautiful view out the living room window, to a black diamond ski hill. It was fun to watch people skiing down the hill throughout the day.
The house location is close to all events. The house needs to be advertised better, there were more rooms than pictured, we thought that the couches were possible sofa beds. To our surprise there were 2 bedrooms on all three levels, with a bathroom to share on each level.
Our family enjoyed the house very much, would consider renting again!
This home was roomy for our large family of 10, and could easily accommodated more. It has 2 family rooms, washer and dryer and is walking distance to the Boyne lodge. Basic ammendaties and a practical choice for a fair price. The lack of internet in the home was a plus for us to get our teenagers and young adult children to get unplugged for a little while, until the kids discovered the internet at Boyne lodge. It was quiet and private with the wooded area in the back. Would like to have screens on the windows to enjoy the fresh air at night. We would definately rent again.
We stayed in this house for a "winter get away" for two consecutive seasons. beautiful apot. spacious. clean. close to Boyne skiing, tubing, etc. Had a great time. Group of 10 were comfortable for the entire weekend and had a great time. Highly recommend.
I looked on line for a reasonably priced rental at Boyne Mountain. In the past we have stayed right at the resort and found it to be very expensive for a weekend get away, until we found this GREAT place. It's located at the base, by BLueGreen Time Share properties. It was clean with tons of room and ample beds and bathrooms. The kids had their own area in the finished basement. We loved it and will definitely be back.
We arrived late on Friday and found the house to be clean and spacious. It had 2 living rooms the basement had walkout sliding doors, bunk room for the kids an additional bedroom and a full bath. We would recommend this property. Plus it was priced right. Thanks for a great place.

Garden seeder
Hello everyone,
i have just started a small market garden in Greece.
I would like to ask you if you know of any reliable garden seeders (hand models).
Experience will be valued.
Kind regards
Not sure what you mean by "garden seeder (hand models), but I've attached a link to one I've had for 12 years and works really great. My garden is 50ft. X 50ft. This works very well, adjust the depth, adjust the marker for row width and walk-that's it. It opens the furrow, drops the seed at the proper spacing, a chain closes the furrow and the rear wheel "tamps" it. One caution, you have to have at least 3/4" of seed in the hopper for the plates to be able to pick it up. No problem with larger seeds like corn, beans, etc. Smaller seeds, spinach, lettuce, etc. you may have to buy more than you really want to in order to use this.
Good luck,
Here is a link that might be useful: Garden Seeder
Earthway is good one to have but seeds to much some seed cup need cutting off I have to and 3 set seed disc and I can plant Onion and Mustard seeds. To remove cups use very sharp knife are small grinder good place to get hand are finger cut be careful..
Hey, didn't mean to "hijack" this post....:-)
Lots of good info on the seeder I suggested. Mixing perlite is a slick idea.
Rethinking "hand seeder," I've attached another type, I had one of these and it is faster than using your fingers but still requires stooping. I have a bad hip, knee and shoulder courtesy of an "all expense paid vacation in Sunny South East Asia" back in the 60's so stooping I try to avoid.
Good luck,

need some advice having kitchen cabs painted
Hi- We are getting new kitchen cabinets & have the option of having them installed unfinished & painted onsite. I have an old house & am seeking a period type kitchen white shaker style. The cabinetmaker uses a conversion varnish & I prefer the look of ben moore satin impervo oil. I also personally don't mind the yellowing of the white over time. What type of primer should we use & how many coats of each? Do people use any conditioners or thinners etc? We may hire a local painter but wanted to get some expert advice so I am not completely in the dark. Thanks!
Hello lblue,
My name is Christine, and I work for The Home Depot in Atlanta, Georgia.
If you use oil based paint, you should an oil based primer. You only have to do one coat of primer. After it dries apply two coats of paint. Sometimes people are satisfied with only one coat of paint, but, for the most part people apply two coats.
Using a conditioner, it is not necessary, people use wood conditioner before they stain.
As for question about using a thinner, that is something you should talk to your paint associate about when you purchase your paint. Thinning is not always necessary or recommended. It depends on how you apply the paint (spraying versus rolling) and if the specific paint that you purchase can be thinned without losing the integrity of the quality.
I hope that helped!
Let me know if I can help with anything else,
I'm in the midst of painting my cabinets. Ours are builder grade solid hardwood which was factory varnished. The end panels however are a printed hardboard which, over the years, has held color whereas the cabinets darkened such that the mis-match is quite noticible. So, short of new cabinets, paint is my solution. Here's how I have proceeded.
If you're planning hardware, install it first to "locate" the holes. Then remove.
I sanded (150 grit)to get a "tooth" to the varnish, cleaned with a tack cloth and degreased with Dirtex. You will be able to skip the 3rd step with new cabinets but I wouldn't the first two.
Prime with BIN, shelac-based(oil)primer.
I am painting with Cabinet Coat(latex) brand semi gloss. I've used it before and it is very durable. Two coats. Use a quality brush and full vertical strokes to minimize the brush look. Quality enamels self-level nicely but the hand-finished brush look is still slightly apparent, and desirable to many.
HINT: You need to be careful with enamel paint not to apply too much at one time as it skins and can run on vertical surfaces. Your "working" time with latex paints is limited. You're better off to apply thinly and anticipate a 3rd coat until you're more comfortable with any paint you are using.
Hope this gives so useful tips and confidence to go forward.

The premise of Grand Piano is so silly and so high-concept that, in all actuality, I could see it working like a charm. The movie will cast Elijah Wood as a piano player who, after spending five years on a professional leave of absence, comes back to perform a concert, but finds a "threatening note" scribed on his sheet music. And, seeing as this is a thriller, said note leaves him "forced to play his best concert ever to save his life as well as his wife's."
I think it sounds like a load of fun; John Cusack might even be on the same page, as Variety reports that director Eugenio Mira has brought him into talks, presumably to play the man tormenting Wood's character into putting on a good show. (But don't take my word for it.) It's kind of what I'm hoping for, too, since it'd both be interesting to see Cusack take a villainous turn — something he hasn't done since… well, I cant remember — and the casting would create an unusual dynamic between hero and antagonist.
Should he get signed, we can expect the both of them to go in front of cameras by July; shooting is taking place in both Spain and Chicago. Rodrigo Cortés (Buried) will produce with Adrián Guerra through their Nostromo Pictures.
Is Cusack a smart choice for Grand Piano?

Help me date this couch?
Hello everyone,
I found this forum via a websearch trying to locate Louis XV furniture for comparison of a couch I own. The responses on here were very well informed so I figured this would be a good place to start. :-)
This couch was given to me by a friend. Her grandmother had the couch for as long as she can remember. I've done my best at researching this piece but cannot find a definite answer.
I am so glad Pal responded. I really have no clue and am by no means a pro, but the shape of the back cushions are so fluid and the carving is nature-based that I wondered about early 20th century with a nod to the Art Nouveau movement. It is a fun piece. Come back to show us what you do with it!
Oh, and the main reason I shared my thoughts was just to bump this back up near the top in hopes that more will share their knowledge! :)
I think this would actually be called a canape, which I always thought was something to eat until I took a course at the Met on furniture.
To me, it is the exuberant drop of that center medallion that makes me think this is revival. It seems a bit modern in sensibility, and I haven't seen that on 18th century ones.
Here are turn of the 20th century canapes that seem to share influences with yours, although the second is very spare:
That carving is splendid.
Here is a link that might be useful: Wikipedia on canapes
Lov - I've seen them in furniture stores that cater to Hispanics. It's still a popular style in Mexico.
I've also seen them in thrift stores in areas with lots of old people (near any major retirement area).
But go to auctions and check Craigslist and see what you can find ... just insist on a test-sit before you bid.
I've been watching craigslist. Saw one but it was gone when I called. Since then, nothing. I've been to some estate sales, nothing, second hand store regularly, auctions every week, but with our ever increasing Hispanic population I probably won't get one before they do. I'm not near enough a populated area to have a lot of choice. Yes, the sit on test for sure! And that's why I passed at the only one I've ever seen at auction. I could see that no matter how much I bid, the other bidder was going to keep going. Purchase price + fix it was too much. There comes a time to rethink the plan. That's when I wondered if it was possible to buy new.
I couldn't find a "store neare me" so I assume Iowa is not on their list. I didn't get any useful information from the web site other than pictures. I suspect it's outta my price range anyway.

Don't run away. We all know how atrocious Stephen Sommers' 2004 take on Van Helsing was. Now get ready for something completely different.
Pajiba is reporting that Universal Pictures is developing a brand spanking new Van Helsing movie "based upon the same fictional vampire hunter character from Bram Stoker's Dracula."
After just stepping down from The Hobbit it is reported that Guillermo del Toro will be producing and writing the new treatment "described as an action horror story."
This is just one of his many, many projects. He already tackled vampires with Blade II as well as his recent novel The Strain and wouldn't mind seeing him do a new Van Helsing film. I'd doubt he would direct it, but at least we would have a strong script.
Do you want to see a new Van Helsing film, del Toro-style?

Winter sowing vegetables in zone 4?
It's the middle of March and many of you are seeing green things with buds in your yard. I still have 18inches of snow on the ground (can't see the tops of my raised beds yet)
In the past I have only started vegetable seeds indoors under lights, or purchased starter plants. Our growing season is to short for direct sowing most things, but I would like to see if the WS method will give me enough of a jumpstart on the season.
I am trying to decide when to attempt winter sowing for cold season vegetables. We probably wont get any more below zero weather, but it will still be in the teens and possibly single digits some nights. Is it to early to winter sow, spinach, lettuce, broccoli and peas? Can I try tomatoes now with any hope? Obviously none of these need cold stratification, so I'm not sure how early/late to try them.
Are there experienced zone 4 people out these who can give me some advice?
Of the things mentioned, I've only tried tomatoes. They started slow, but eventually caught up with the ones I started indoors, so you could go ahead and WS them now. I would think you could go ahead with the others too, but I'm sure you'll hear from those with more experience shortly :D
Hi mandolls,
I live in the coldest part of zone 5 and have had good luck with lettuces wsed in March. With legumes, you run the risk of them rotting. I have wsed toms and had some success but they fruit much later in August. Spinach is best when direct sown as soon as the ground can be worked and be sure to use seed for this year as it must be fresh. I have also wsed broccoli and brussel sprouts but they never got large enough to produce. I find it best to purchase starter plants for them. I try to ws lettuce every year as it seems to be the 1st container to sprout and gives me so much joy after the long snowy winter. Good luck!
Thank you for the input. I went ahead and tried a few Early Girl tomatoes, Baby Romaine lettuce, Spinach, & Cilantro along with a bunch of perennials and a few annuals. For some reason I kept forgetting I had ordered Spinach seeds, and ended up getting them from three different sources, so If they dont transplant, I have plenty more.
This being my first WS trial, I am sowing almost everything under lights as well, plus plan on turning the raised beds into cold frames as soon as the snow melts (which might happen this week !) for some early direct sowing.
Sorry I can't help you. The only veggies I ws are lettuce and some tomatoes. Both of those could be started now or even earlier.
For years I have only grown tomatoes, a few peppers, lettuce, beans, spinach, cucumbers and spinach. Most tomatoes and all peppers are started inside with the other seeds sown directly in the garden.
Hi everybody,
I've been lurking on here a bit over the past week to gain some info, and I'm bumping this thread up because I am going to be launching my first WS attempt this weekend, and I had the same question. Rather than making a whole new thread...
Overall, I am all ears for any advice about zone 4 veggie winter sowing before I get started.
Some specific questions I have are:
Am I too early or late for any specific vegetables?
Are there certain veggies that I should definitely wait on? If so, wait until about when?
Is there a preferred type of weather for placing WSown plants outdoors? (AKA, does it matter if it's snowing like crazy, howling wind, and/or very far below zero? And, conversely, does it matter if it's warm-ish. like above freezing?)
Your favorite WS containers (I'm using milk jugs and similar containers)
Any other tips or advice.
Hey, Fannie,
I can answer a few of your questions. Most people favor milk jugs, 2 liter bottles, and those clear plastic salad/spinach containers for sowing.
The weather when you set out containers does not matter to the seeds, though it might matter to you, lol.
Most seeds can go out any time, but they won't sprout until the temps in the containers are warm enough for germination. I like to place my containers in a sunny spot on pavement or against a building to provide protection and a little extra warmth. Just be careful if the weather gets even mildly warm. Those containers can get too warm in direct sun. Once things have sprouted, get the tops off, or move them to dappled shade.
Larger seeds, like beans and peas, can rot if they are kept in a moist container too long before germinating. So, those I would wait to sow until the snow is gone.
Hope that helps.

It supports a wide range of popular document formats, including Microsoft Office, HTML, PDF, RTF, plain text, and OpenOffice.org. If you are running Ubuntu, you can install DocFetcher using its .deb package. For other Linux distributions, you can download an archived version of the application, unpack it, and launch DocFetcher using the DocFetcher.sh script.
Before you can put DocFetcher to use, you have to index the directory containing documents. To do this, right-click on the Search Scope pane and choose Create Index. Select the desired directory, and wait till DocFetcher finishes the indexing operation. You can then search through the indexed documents by specifying the search term you want in the Search field and pressing Enter. DocFetcher returns a list of matching documents sorted by relevance. Select the document you want, and you can see its content with highlighted occurrences of the search string in the Preview pane. Use the Next and Previous buttons to quickly jump to the previous or next occurrence of the search string. Besides simple searches, you can use a variety of supported parameters. For example, to include or exclude a search term you can use the plus (+) and minus (-) operators. You can also use wild cards and limit searches to specific file extensions.comments powered by Disqus

Red Hat on Monday announced a new cloud management certification for Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform as part of the Red Hat OpenStack Cloud Infrastructure Partner Network, a commercial ecosystem for OpenStack. Red Hat will enable cloud management solutions from partners to interoperate with and manage Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform. The certification offers customers confidence that their OpenStack-based clouds and management solutions have been fully tested together and are supported jointly by Red Hat and the participating companies.

With Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform, Red Hat is maintaining its deep commitment to several key benefits, including a long and stable product lifecycle; tested and secure enterprise-grade solutions; and robust integration through standard interfaces and APIs. The expansion of Red Hat's certification program to include cloud management solutions enables customers who want to deploy Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform at scale in a private cloud to also use their management solution of choice.

Great Hotel in Excellent Location
23 March 2015
The Crown Plaza on Shudehill offers high quality, comfortable, friendly and professional accommodation. I've stayed there many times and the staff has always been attentive and polite. Being steps from the Shudehill Metrolink tram stop and the Northern Quarter adds to the convenience of the hotel. The internet access is quite slow. The fitness centre facilities are minimal. Other than that, I am happy to stay there again and again.

Great Overnight Stay
19 March 2015
Very nice hotel. Beds are excellent quality and very comfortable. Rooms are a little dark as only one small, long narrow window and no ceiling lights. No fridge (only electronic minibar) so warm water to drink. The shower was a bit low in pressure - would have expected a power shower. but the bathroom was clean and modern. We have stayed at a few hotels in Manchester and this is definitely one of the better ones, would definitely recommend.

My brew buddy went to the homebrew store for me and didn't realize he needed to get our partial mash grains milled...stores closed and we can't brew unless we can find a way to grind them. How about a coffee grinder? Is there a setting that would work? We're considering (maybe drunkenly) going to the local grocery store and using the "coarse" setting on the coffee grinder.
Pretty sure that'd turn your grain in to powder. Try putting them in a baggie and using a rolling pin to crush them.
i wouldn't do it....i was in a pinch once before i got my mill...put in a baggie and pounding with a rubber mallot...not the best tactic but better than coffee grinder....Whutever also has a good suggestion
If you're using a grain bag I don't really think it'll make all that much of a dif. Crush will matter much less because you can fix a stuck sparge easily. If you're 'partial mash' is just a glorified steeping then no worries. I still don't worry a ton about the crush on my partial mashes which I do in a 2 gal cooler (per BYO counter-top mashing).
I've used/tried all sorts of things to crush - rolling pins, pasta machine, meat grinder, coffee grinder. Rolling pin is only worth it if its a small amount of specialty grains you're steeping... in which case I don't think you even need to worry about the crush anyway.
Two caveats:
1) If there ever was coffee run through the machine you can count on some coffee flavor. It's a very oily bean.
2) Use the corasest grind. Inevitably the hulls will be more damaged than in a crush. Perhaps try wet crushing the grain?
If you really are mashing, then you could skip the crush and let it mash over night. Sparging will probably yeild poor results but I would take that over my nights trying to hammer/roll grain for 4 or so pounds of grain. If you're steeping I'll stand by my "wont be a huge deal." And if you think it is, a small amount of specialty grain is much more manageable.
coffee grinder will turn them into powder, like whutever says. learned that early on the hard way...

2: Scottish Export 80
3: Hef-wit
Fermenting: English Mild, Cabernet Sauvignon, Barkshack Mead
So no to the coffee grinder...sigh. I'll guess I'll reschedule for a brew day tomorrow when I can go by the homebrew shop and have them mill it for me. Silly brew buddy! Oh well.
Thanks y'all.
Well, a burr style coffee grinder adjusted to the coarsest setting will be a lot like a corona mill. Workable but not great. True about the coffee flavor being picked up though. How much grain are we talking about?

Are you doing BIAB, or using a MLT? If you're using a fine bag, then run it through the coffee grinder and you should be fine. BUT, you're going to get coffee flavor in your beer. You could buy a bag of bulgur, or rice and run it through before you do your grain, and that'll clean out SOME of the coffee from the machine. I'd say go for it, and of course, let us all know how it turned out.
I had almost 5 lbs of grain for a partial mash in a 3 gallon cooler mash/lauter tun. I decided to push back my brewing until tomorrow when I can get the grain properly milled. Thanks though.

Stephenson said that setting a goal is meaningless without investment into strategies to achieve that goal. He said one of the educational reforms that most interests him is the idea of individualizing education through new technologies and instructional software.
He said that a tablet or computer program is no substitute for a teacher, much like how an electronic spreadsheet is no substitute for an accountant. But advances in technology make it possible to move past the antiquated and rigid lines drawn between student age groups.
"The batch processing of students was something that was necessary in the 19th century," he said, "but today we can free teachers from the manual labor of teaching batches of students."
He said new technologies carry a price tag, and the ongoing debate in Washington over the fiscal cliff, sequester and debt ceiling place a giant question mark over Utah's already thinly spread revenue.
"When Washington sneezes, the state gets pneumonia," he said, still uncertain how coming federal decisions will impact the state's financial health.
That uncertainty has prompted Osmond to sponsor a resolution to decrease the state's dependence on federal dollars. He said one thing that is certain is the unsustainable nature of what's happening in Washington, and that it is only a matter of time before Utah is hit with a large reduction in federal funding.
"A sizable portion of our state budget comes from the federal government," Osmond said. "If those federal dollars go away suddenly and we're not prepared, we will have serious economic problems in Utah."
But reducing dependency on federal dollars means either increasing state dollars or implementing significant cuts to the state budget.
Dabakis said that for years, lawmakers have failed to put forward long-term plans for how the state will address the funding needs of education in the state. He was particularly critical of last year's Republican-led bills that seek to seize some 30 million acres of public land from the federal government, which passed under the understanding that revenues from those lands would be used for education.
"Why don't we go buy lottery tickets, because I think there's a better shot of funding this with lottery tickets than with the federal government sitting down and saying 'Oh yeah, you're right, take your 30 million acres,'″ he said. "It's not a serious proposal, it's a political proposal. Everyone knows that, everyone will tell you that."
He said he was not yet at the point of proposing legislation to increase taxes, but he said it was time for lawmakers to take a serious look at new state revenues. He also said that state leaders, particularly members of the state's majority Republican party, had been unwilling to face the situation facing education in the state.
"I think Democrats need to be bold and imaginative and need to challenge the status quo and we need to look at revenue increases," he said. "What else can we do? We've tried everything else."

FootJoy Mens Rain-Grip Golf Gloves 3 3
Wear Year Round I play golf in warm humid conditions most of the year, and can go through quite a few regular golf gloves. I also find that on especially humid days, regular gloves don't grip the club as well as the Foot Joy Rain Gloves. It is really a great glove not only for rainy conditions but anytime your hands are wet. I'm a lefty, so I use the right hand glove for me and give the other to friends/family. In hot, humid conditions, the Rain Glove significantly outperforms AND outlasts regular golf gloves. I recommend trying it....you'll be surprised at how it performs and will definitely save some money. September 15, 2014
good quality at a great price. I bought this product for my son for Christmas and he loves it living in a rainy area like Vancouver, Washington. It also works well with other outdoor activities. Spring is on its way, so its worth having or carrying in your bag. March 4, 2014
Wow, what an advantage over my partners Recently got to play in a continual light rain. We had a good money game going and it started to rain. I put the gloves on and then I won every skin for the last eight holes. Partners were complaining about slippery clubs.... I just kept making birdies and pars.... paid for my next order from TGW with the winnings.... February 14, 2014

I didn't have a choice in staying at this hotel: it was organized by my conference. But, my goodness, it is fabulous. If you need a hotel in this area, you will be very happy here. Let me single out one person at the front desk: Akil. A very professional young man who knows what the hospitality industry is all about. I had some specific requests for a room and he just found the best room for me. None of that "Let me see what I can do" of, worse, "No, not available." He just did his best with a smile. Though this Marriott is a bit isolated (the cab ride from the Shady Grove Metro cost $15 with tip), the Washingtonian Center is not bad. I recommend BGR for a quick burger that is excellent. For those particularly frugal (like me), there's a Target in this mall that has a large selection of groceries. Go! You'll be glad.
