Is baby too hot or too cold? These safety thermometer cards ensure that an infant's room is not dangerously too hot or uncomfortably too cold. Although the cause of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome is not known. The Foundation for the Study of Infant Deaths (FSID) recommends that a child sleep in room temperatures between 61F (16C) to 68F (20C) with 65F (18C) being just right. Most adults find it difficult to judge room temperature and the FSID suggests the use of a simple room thermometer in rooms where your baby plays and sleeps. Place this cute Farmyard Animals Nursery room thermometer on the wall near the baby's cot and you will always know if baby is sleeping in a room of the correct temperature. Store out of reach of children, in a cool dry place away from sunlight and direct heat sources. The manufacturer holds the ISO world standard certificate for their thermometers.

How can I tell what lind of silver it is?
Just getting around to unpacking stuff my mother left which has been in storage for years. Found a rather pretty old, large, heavy silver (?) oval shallow tray with a cast trim around the edge of roses and festoons. It was heavily tarnished, but silver polish has made it beautiful again.
Thing is, I can find no marks of any kind on it. Obviously it's silver, at least the outside is, but there appear to be no hallmarks or even "company name" and pretend marks such as you get on plated silver. some pretty good scratches on the back reveal no base metal. Ideas?
Could it be old Sheffield Plate? Or sterling? Was there any tradition of silver smithing in Australia? Were there guilds that would uphold the standards of fineness in silver? Did they make something similar to Sheffield plate? Would it have come from England?
I can't be certain of its origin, Mom is most likely to have brought it out from the US when we emigrated but then again may have found it at an old country hotel we had here in Oz.
If it was an antique acquired here it could be either British or locally made but in either case I would expect to find hallmarks, unless they are hidden by the cast edge.
Here's how to detect Old Sheffield Plate:
1) The silver itself has a somewhat bluish cast to the color of it. Since it's applied silver on the surface and not 925, it won't match other sterling pieces and if I'm correct, won't match electroplate either.
2) Since the body of the piece is a sandwich of silver-copper (or other base metal)-silver, the inside filling needed to be hidden so a silver edge was applied and wrapped over. Some were done with ingeniously, others with more obviousness. The earliest piece of Old Sheffield in my collection has a raw edge on its spout and I can see the copper. "Silver mounts" printed on bottom is a clue that the trim pieces are solid silver.
3) sometimes an area of solid silver was set into the middle of a tray or on the belly of a liquid-holding piece to accept an engraved monogram or family crest. These usually show up as areas which will not tarnish at the same rate OR which don't look the same as the balance of the piece when you breathe on them.
4) Generally, Old Sheffield Plate had a lifespan from mid-18thC. to 2nd quarter 19th C. This means that the style of the piece needs to match the era in which it was produced. Some Old sheffield did not have a silver back but a tinned back, esp in early years.
5) "Pink" areas of copper showing through somewhere are your most obvious clue, where the servants polished too hard. But...Old Sheffield repros also have copper beneath the silver.
5) The silver smithing guilds hated the Sheffielders, whose work cut into their profits and apparently rivaled their stuff in glitz value. So they refused to allow proper hallmarks. At some times they required NO hallmarks; at other times, pseudohallmarks were given. You can find lists of these in silver books. Having no mark is a symptom of Old Sheffield, although sometimes on a complex piece I find alphabet letters embossed on them, such as on a water pan inside a warming unit. But...if there are numbers scratched on the underside, this is not unusual. I have a number of pieces with this kind of maker's doodle on the underside.
6) Liquid-holding pieces may have a seam on the inside. On the outside, they burnished this until it became invisible.
7) The Sheffielder had to out-do the silversmith at his own game, since they were competitors. This means that the Sheffielder produced high-fashion pieces, especially ones that attracted the rising new middle class in the beginning of the Industrial Revolution. People who lacked "old family silver" needed it for their social acceptance into the world of conspicuous consumption. This means that the pieces were often big. The kind of thing that shines on a sideboard and that went along with table service by servants. The upper class began to look at these pieces and say, hey, why not and so they began to buy into it also. But Old Sheffield Plate was not intended for heavy polishing, which is why there are so many pink pieces today. NEVER replate this stuff; collectors accept that the copper will show. It's considered part of the charm.
I have some other sheffield plate that also has no markings.
It seems to be a hit or miss thing.
You can see the D*S (Dixon & Son) on the bottom of this water kettle (pictures are click-able) but the gorgeous stand has no markings at all.
There is absolutely no 'wear through' on the piece and the off color is from me NOT polishing it for over two years! 8)
The piece is circa 'early' 1800's and I am amazed that it looks as new as when it was first created. (When polished) LOL
If you can .. post some pictures of your piece and I may be able to help.
Thank you antiquesilver
James Dixon did some of the most beautiful sheffield plate!
I have run across a lot of his work such as candelabras, tea kettles and flask's and all of them are so intricately done!
Saying that .. This is the only piece that I have ever come across that was in such mint condition, with no silver loss!
I really hope that the OP comes back and posts some pictures!
Florantha has provided a really comprehensive and useful guide on how to tell what types of silver that you currently own. Actually, I think it would have been a better option if you were to check thoroughly first before applying the silver polish. Any markings could have been polished over or wiped away. Nonetheless, try looking out for the signs that Florantha has mentioned. Else, you can visit any antique or silver store and seek help from a professional.

I find that the HDR process can wash out a photo and take away lines and contrast. Topaz Adjust helps bring it back. It's really a wonderful product and I highly recommend it." - Trey Ratcliff, Stuck in Customs
Trey Ratcliff – the "Pioneer of HDR Photography" – creates vibrant and spectacular HDR photos by using Topaz Adjust to add "pop" and Topaz Detail to enhance lines and detail.
Trey first uses one of the many presets as a starting point, then uses micro-adjustments to fine-tune his image for best results. Check out how he uses Topaz Adjust on his website.
The results that Topaz filters give me are unique and, to a large degree, something that would take considerable effort to replicate with Photoshop alone."
- Glyn Dewis, photographer, retoucher, and trainer
Glyn uses products like Topaz Clarity to help him create the signature "look" that he's become known for. He gets best results by first applying very strong Topaz effects, and then toning them down with opacity and selective adjustments.
Glyn Dewis is a international photographer, retoucher, and instructor who specializes in advanced retouching techniques. To see more of his work, check our Topaz interview with him or visit his website.
I've never been a huge fan of plugins, but I was really impressed with Topaz – particularly Detail and Clarity. Topaz offers exceptional control and helps me add a real punch to my final work." - Tim Wallace, Ambient Life
Tim first uses Topaz DeNoise's advanced noise reduction to remove image noise while preserving the crisp image detail he captures in his photos. then, he applies Topaz Detail to great effect for tack-sharp and amazingly detailed images.
Tim's dramatic style is highly regarded within the commercial and advertising industry, and the unique capabilities of Topaz software helps him realize his vision. For more, visit Tim's website or watch his courses on Kelby Training.

Five metrics for online video ads.
Online video advertising has been making the news lately as marketers shift budgets away from TV. According to eMarketer, the online video advertising market will reach $385 million in 2006 and surpass $1 billion by 2008. Online video's importance is underlined by its increased presence in this year's TV upfront. According to MSN 's Todd Herman, 80 percent of their online-video-related revenue came from the upfront, and included 60 of the top 100 U.S. advertisers.
Though TV may reach a broader audience quicker, online video advertising reaches an audience that's easily targeted and difficult to reach via TV. Unlike TV, online video advertising delivers consumer interaction and engagement in a contextually relevant environment that's measurable.
Dynamic Logic's MarketNorms 2004-2005 data showed online video ads raised brand and persuasion metrics at a statistically significant 90 percent confidence level; specifically, aided brand awareness had an 8 percent lift, message association 38 percent, brand favorability 6 percent, and purchase intent 7 percent.
If you're considering adding online video to your marketing mix, here are some things to consider to maximize combining video's impact with online's measurability and targeting capabilities.
Online Video and Related Advertising Options
Although there are a variety of formats, the most popular online video advertising formats are pre-roll and in-page advertising. Among the online video advertising options are:
Maximizing Online Video's Impact
The most effective online video executions are created specifically for the Web rather than repurposed from TV or elsewhere. For the most consistent, cost-effective online video executions, plan and develop your online campaigns in conjunction with those for TV and other offline media.
Increase your online video advertising results by adding the following functionality:
Extending Online Video's Reach
Expand your online video campaign's reach by integrating it into a broader marketing plan. Suggested tactics include:
Assessing Online Video's Results
Since online video and related advertising are still evolving, so are the related metrics. About.com's Andrew Pancer cautions online video advertising is an emerging model that's different from TV and requires analytics that make it easy for advertisers to measure results across platforms consistently:
As online video and related advertising change, online marketers and publishers must consider ways to apply metrics across platforms so major advertisers understand the advantages and tradeoffs of using different media formats. That said, it's imperative online video advertising metrics take into consideration the basics: reach, audience, and targeting. They should also track content, behavior, daypart, interactivity, and engagement. This enhanced level of measurability shouldn't be used to hold interactive marketing to standards beyond those of other media but should be considered an enhancement.

Today, China is one of the largest manufacturing countries of semiconductor devices. However, major differences remain between the operations of local manufacturers and their foreign counterparts. Most domestic manufacturers are small in scale and manufacture low-end products. This is due to the lower technology levels generally employed by domestic firms.

In the modern wing of the Art Institute of Chicago, there is a gallery. This gallery contains The Elliott Room (Charter Series) by Robert Ryman. It is one of the most fascinating works of art I have ever seen.
The room features five pieces, which consist of unblemished expanses of white, interrupted only by sparse horizontal and vertical strips of metal, and affixed to the wall by evenly spaced, unassuming bolts. Within this highly limited set of variables, Ryman nevertheless explores a vast range of possibilities. Though the paintings may appear superficially similar, none of them are alike, and each piece projects its own unique character.
But the paintings themselves are not the only art in the room. This particular gallery is a dead end, with only one entrance, and a large window looking out on Millennium Park. And it is this arrangement that permits the emergence of a new and unintended kind of artwork. The first time my girlfriend and I viewed The Elliott Room, we stopped at the threshold and briefly looked around in confusion before leaving. Although we didn't know it at the time, we had found the key to appreciating the series on an entirely different level.
During our next visit to the museum, we took the time to stop and properly examine the work. The seating affords an excellent view of the entire gallery – including, most crucially, the entranceway. While contemplating the series, we gradually became aware of another part of the room: the audience.
We watched quietly and observed people's reactions upon first seeing Ryman's art. A woman with two children stood at the entrance, and turned back almost immediately. A middle-aged man paced around the room, bitterly cursing under his breath. A young couple walked up to the window, scarcely even noticing the artwork. Most people barely set foot in the room before realizing what it was and leaving in instant disappointment. And it was the funniest thing we had ever seen.
In fairness, if you haven't read the description, the series could perhaps be mistaken for wall mountings without any art on them. And the vast north-facing window often draws people's attention away from Ryman's work. But the interaction between the art and its audience is one of the most engaging features of the museum. It's a surprisingly evocative and challenging piece, and nowhere else did we witness such forceful reactions to an installation. In a way, the very act of putting this series on display has itself become a work of art. It may seem like one of the last pieces that would have the power to take on a life of its own and transcend the intentions of its creator, yet it does so effortlessly. And it is hilarious.
You don't need to struggle to understand anything about it. All you have to do is sit back and watch what happens. I highly recommend it.

cutting 1 1/4 inch holes in ceramic wall tile for a shower faucet
Hi everyone,
I need to cut holes in the shower wall for my plumber to install a 3 stem faucet with diverter. The installation instructions from California faucet says that each hole needs to be 1 1/4 inch in diameter.
First question, why so big, when the stems are skinny? Is it because you need to allow for future access to the cartridges?
Second question, how would you go about cutting the holes in the wall? A large bit (hole saw), or a 1 1/4" circle of tiny holes.
I appreciate any advice or experience.
A diamond hole saw bit will be your best friend for this. They are a little expensive but the best way to avoid cracking the tile. I would recommend have a second pair of hands available with a spray bottle of some sort of liquid to spray the tile and keep everything cool, also to help avoid breaking the tile (alluding to Geoffrey's post about making a pool or bath).
Thanks, Millworkman,
I think the idea of a spray bottle to keep the bit and tile cool while drilling is a great idea. I was wondering about diamond coated hole saw vs. tungsten carbide. I read somewhere that the diamond should be used on porcelain and tungsten carbide on ceramic. You feel the diamond would be better for this job, cutting ceramic?
That I am not certain of. The company I work for (as a PM/Estimator) usually only does glass but not tile but one of my installers does tile as well and from what I know the only thing he uses id a diamond hole saw, Maybe tungsten carbide would be better bu I do not know. The keeping it cool part is essential for either however.
The diamond hole saw worked great. I took it slow, sprayed water in the cut, and cleaned out the sludge every so often to keep the temperature cool. Only $39 and it did all 3 holes, ceramic tiles and an inch of cement wall.

I always head to the tops first because bottoms are boring. I should really look at bottoms first because I buy clothing by the outfit, and they style of bottoms sort of determine the top! Tops are just so pretty! And dresses. I do dresses or tops first, depending upon which is closer to the entrance.

DEFINITION of 'Investment Analysis'
- The study of how an investment is likely to perform and how suitable it is for a given investor. Investment analysis is key to any sound portfolio-management strategy. Investors not comfortable doing their own investment analysis can seek professional advice from a financial advisor.
- An analysis of past investment decisions. An investment analysis is a look back at previous investment decisions and the thought process of making the investment decision. Key factors should include entry price, expected time horizon, and reasons for making the decision at the time.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Investment Analysis'
- For example, in conducting an investment analysis of a mutual fund, the investor would look at factors such as how the fund has performed compared to its benchmark. The investor could also compare performed to similar funds, its expense ratio, management stability, sector weighting, style and asset allocation. Investment goals should always be considered when analyzing an investment; one size does not always fit all, and highest returns regardless of risk are not always the goal.
- For any beginner investor, investment analysis is essential. Looking back at past decisions and analyzing the mistakes and successes will help fine-tune strategies. Many investors don't even document why they made an investment let alone analyze why they were wrong or right. You could make a proper decision, extraordinary events could lose you money, and if you didn't analyze it, you would shy away from making the same decision.

Dr. Kenneth Chow's Ratings
I recently needed to have a horizontally impacted wisdom tooth removed, following a dental infection in the area. (In a nutshell, I had ignored recommendations to have my wisdom teeth out for about 20 years, so this particular wisdom tooth ended up damaging the roots of the adjacent molar so much that the molar eventually became infected.) Being in my late 30s, I'm considered an "older patient" for wisdom tooth removal, and consequently felt extremely nervous about the procedure, especially after doing way too much research on the subject! Thankfully I was referred to Dr. Chow, who was able to allay my fears. He was wonderful throughout the process, and his staff likewise. Yes, it's true that they have a busy office, but Dr. Chow definitely took the time to listen to and address all my questions and concerns. I was told the various options in terms of anaesthetic, and chose to have IV sedation. The process was quick, and I recall little of it. Recovery went fine, as I followed all of their instructions to the letter. I'm leaving this online rating in the hopes that it might assist others in my position, who are anxious about having a procedure done. Based on my experience, you will be in very competent hands with Dr. Chow. I would highly recommend this office to anyone in need of oral surgery!

My daughter recently had all 4 of her wisdom teeth extracted by Dr.Chow. He is skilled,knowledgeable, and has an excellent chairside manner. The office staff are professional and friendly. On the day of surgery, he had a brief discussion with me before proceeding. He gave me a prescription and told me it would be a good idea to get it filled so I would have it ready for my daughter. Well, I took his advice and went away for about 40 minutes. When I returned, the staff told me my daughter was already in recovery! Linda, the assistant gave her post-surgical instructions, ice pack and gauze. Dr.Chow contacted me in the evening to check on my daughter, and Kathleen (office staff) called me the next day as well. My daughter had very minimal pain and very slight swelling. Thank you Dr Chow and staff for making this a great experience for my daughter! You are truly the BEST ORAL SURGEON in town!

I had 2 wisdom teeth removed by Dr. Chow and had a very positive experience. The entire procedure took less than 30 minutes and was painless too. I did not experience any swelling or bruising on my face, and my gums stopped bleeding after a day or so. Dr. Chow made a nerve-wracking experience much more pleasurable. He called me daily after my surgery to check up on me and see how I was feeling, which I greatly appreciated. Staff was very friendly, professional, and caring! I highly recommend Dr. Chow; I guarantee you will be in good hands!

I had all 4 of my wisdom taken out under sedation. Walking in I was a nervous reck but the staff was very friendly and warming. Dr. Chow came in and started right away with a few great conversation starters to calm me down. Before I even know it the Iv was in and i was falling asleep from the Iv sedation when i woke up everything was done and it was a great experience. It was quick, painless, and most of all i didnt even swell up! I actually went to work the next day and no one even noticed that i had my w isdoms out the day before! I am very satisfied and very happy with my results. Painless and quick, everyone should have an experience like mine.

Referred by my dentist to Dr. Chow for my wisdom teeth removal. All 4 of my wisdom teeth were buried inside my gums and unfortunately, they were also growing sideways / horizontally. Dr. Chow was extremely experienced and was able to remove all 4 in less than 20 minutes. I experienced ZERO pain and didn't even use a single painkiller I was prescribed. I was able to eat steak and normal food that very night. Highly recommended.

I needed a wisdom tooth removed, and my friends and dentist recommended Dr. Chow. Upon entering his office, the staff were friendly and professional. Before the procedure, Dr. Chow explained what he was going to do. The procedure took less than 30 minutes and it was painless. Dr. Chow was very professional and after the procedure his staff explained in detail what needed to be done. They called me the next day to see how I was doing. I highly recommend Dr. Chow!

It is unfortunate that you had this experience. Our office will make every attempt to improve on this issue. Our surgical office makes every attempt to give patients the time necessary to discuss their condition and any concerns during the initial consultation prior to surgery. On the day of surgery, there is usually a brief discussion before proceeding and after surgery our staff discusses the post-surgical care with the patient and any escort. A post-surgical instruction form and care package of gauze and ice is given to the patient. Instructions to call our office if there are any problems during the recovery period is always encouraged. The next day, our staff usually makes an attempt at contacting the patient to follow-up with any further questions. With regard to bookings, all surgical offices have emergencies with a variety of urgent need for care and are unfortunately squeezed in. We are acutely aware of this and will continue to strive to give all patients the care they require in a timely fashion. We appreciate your feedback and hope you are on the mend. If you are still having any post-surgical care issues, please contact our office for a follow-up and we will see you immediately.

I got recommended to Dr. Chow for wisdom teeth removal. I am so regret that I didn't read this website before I went. Most of the ones who had made poor rate were similar to my case: he was always in a rush; didn't listen to me; double booked himself; didn't care about the questions. I truly understand that Dr.Chow may have done many many similar surgeries in his life and he is very confident, but don't forget: for every patient, it is possibly their FIRST time in their life and ONLY one in their life to have this surgery. It is normal that every patient has different situation he/she wants to talk to the doctor about, every one has his/her concerns and questions he/she would like to receive enough feedback/suggestions. From my personal experience, Dr. Chow and his "always in a rush" staff are not able to do so. They may be professional and really great - but for patients who see them for the first time, how could we know? How can we trust when we see they are always in a rush and don't listen to the patients? Personally I don't feel I was listened and cared at all. My appointment was in the morning and I heard that one other lady had the SAME time booked with me - I just don't get it. After the surgery, my entire head was in extreme pain after freezing and face was swollen - I shared this information with my friends who did wisdom teeth taken out and none of them said it was that bad after they've done it. My friend who went with me said she felt that the staff were extremely impatient as well. I am not sure how he is doing now - maybe still the same as it's part of the personality and years of habits. If you are about to have Dr.Chow and his staff help you, think 5 times before you go. Try to go and visit at least 2 surgeons before you choose one you like. You will get a sense! Wish all people who will have their wisdom teeth taken out find a good doctor and recover well!

How are they going to be presented to convince the guest that Tink is life-size? Is it going to be assumed that she somehow grew from an inch to about 5 feet? Or are we supposed to be shrinking down to her size? And if this is the case will the theming be so off as to clash with MS, SBC, and Tomorrowland?
Even though Disney really wants me to care, I still don't care about the fairies at all.
May God save us all. These pictures remind me of the face characters aboard the Disney cruise lines. They have little similarities to their cartoon counterpart and to top it off, they're not really all that "cute" like the Disney females that I'm used to seeing. That could just be because I'm used to seeing California girls, not Orlando ones. :/
they look alright to me. the whole concept of the fairies thing is not exactly my fav.
it kind of looks like a couple of the wigs are a tad different from the concept photos we saw before, eh?
I'm not up to date with the fairies, so I can't tell if they look as they should. Tinkerbell does not look like she should though. I'd be disappointed as a child to go to Disneyland and see a Tinkerbell who was bigger than I was.
I don't understand the whole size problems that people have. I read people complaining about how Tinker Bell should be tiny. Do you have the same problem with other characters that are depicted as small on film?
A "short" list of characters that have appeared in the parks as a walk around character, but who are depicted as significantly smaller than human Adults in films or Tv shows.
Chip, Dale, Jiminy Cricket, Flik, Atta, Mushu, Buzz Lightyear, Woody, Jessie, Bullseye, Oliver, Marie, Sebastian, Flounder, Nemo, Green Army Men, Abu, Gadget, Remy, and Emile.
And there are probably a whole lot more I am forgetting. Granted some of these characters are bigger than Tink, But several are smaller, even significantly smaller, like Flik and Atta.
My point is that if these characters can appear in the parks, then Tink and pals can. I am really looking forward to meeting them.

Most Saturday mornings I spend a little time at my favorite local coffee shop reading the newspaper. Yes, I am one of those people who still likes to get her hands dirty with newsprint while consuming my morning news. Over time I've come to look forward to reading the weekly syndicated column (old-fashioned version of a blog, I suppose) written by Lisa Earle McLeod, a sales leadership consultant who has done sales training and coaching for many companies whose names will be familiar to you. Her columns about purpose-driven sales resonated with me because I could see the parallel to admissions recruiting – a field where some consider sales a four-letter word and some recruiters themselves scoff at the notion that they are salespersons.

William Bergquist and Kenneth Pawlak's, Engaging the Six Cultures of the Academy, is a must-read for those in higher education leadership. The book is an expanded edition of their original work, The Four Cultures of the Academy. Bergquist and Pawlak make the case throughout the book that six distinct cultures exist on every college campus. These subcultures shape mission, values, and the roles played by those who work at the university. Consequently, understanding the differences between these cultures is imperative higher education leaders. Bergquist and Pawlak state their purpose for the book: "We must determine how to work with and use the strengths and resources of the existing organizational culture to accomplish our goals.

Remaking the American University: Market-Smart and Mission-Centered - Monday Musings
Earlier this summer, I re-read Robert Zemsky, William F. Massy, and Gregory R. Wegner's 2005 Remaking the American University: Market-Smart and Mission-Centered. What continues to make this book so relevant is its analysis of college costs and the forces that drive them. Despite the fact that the authors write from the vantage point of pre-recession 2005, their analysis remains compelling. They coined the terms "administrative lattice" and "academic ratchet" to describe the internal factors contributing to college costs. The administrative lattice describes the growth of administrative structure that arose in response to: faculty consignment of traditionally academic service functions to administration; increased regulation from…Read more
DIY U: Edupunks, Edupreneurs, and the Coming Transformation of Higher Education - Monday Musings
I just finished reading DIY U: Edupunks, Edupreneurs, and the Coming Transformation of Higher Education, by Anya Kamenetz. Although it was published in March of 2010, it is still very relevant today as the consumer rebellion against rising college costs that she predicted has started to come to fruition, especially this year. In addition, all of the recent press about MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses) was foreshadowed in her assertion that the availability of free course content on the web (via iTunes U, YouTube…) plus social media platforms to make high tech also high touch (e.g., 2for platform, online gaming…) has the potential to transform the delivery of education. She observes three reactions to these opportunities: A movement…Read more

What else would you suggest to add into this garden ?
I started a new garden in my backyard recently and so far this is what it looks like. The main plant is a pretty large Chinese snowball that is in the center. Here's the layout right now of the plants I added in so far.
Would you move any of these plants ? Which ones would you add in ? This is the first garden that I've ever started myself outdoors, most of my plants are in pots indoors. I want to be a mix of herbs and flowers. I'm in zone 8 . Thanks for your help :)
I don't mind the mint, I love mint and I use it often, I'll just try to keep a close eye on them. The sun is often on the 7-3-7 side, becasue the 10 ft side is partly shaded by a large cedar tree that is sort of close by. As for most viewed, i'm not really sure, here's some more info on the surroundings and what is in the shade. Nothing is really closed in by a fence , it's just surrounded by a pathway .
It's great having mint at the ready, but strongly urge you to grow it in a planter, submerged or on the surface. Here is my zone 8 area, mint will devour the place. Your plant choices look great. Perhaps just fill in with some colorful, fairly low growing annuals this year.
The issue with sun is whether the plants that need sun to thrive will get enough of it. The question is, what exposure do those plants have? You need to know whether it is north, west, etc, because, for example, an east exposure will not be enough sun for sun-loving plants in most climates, but it might be if you live in a hot climate. You haven't given us your climate, and that matters in most gardening and landscaping questions.
I believe there is a beginner's gardening forum where you might have more luck discussing this question. But to be honest, there is nothing that can replace the site-specific learning that comes from trial and error, so I would encourage you to plant as you have planned, and see how things do end up meeting your needs, or not.
Dahlias need to be dug up in fall and taken inside, and other plants will need replanting in subsequent years, so you will have plenty of opportunity to tweak from year to year - something that gardeners have to perpetually do, if only because plants grow!
Karin L
I think the idea of annuals to fill in makes more sense than anything else. Or some temporary perennial placement. That viburnum (snowball bush) will fill in the entire area in no time. I'd also be just slightly concerned about the placement of the lavender and the rosemary so close to such water lovers as the basils.......just saying :-)
It doesn't look like it is drawn to scale or if it is, the viburnum is now only about 2' wide but it will eventually get 10-15' wide by 10-15' tall. That's pretty much the entire garden!
I will also add another voice suggesting containment of the mint. If you can get your hands on some used or damaged clay chimney tile, they make good containers for spreaders like mint if set so that they are a few inches out of the ground. It's just easier to deal with the problem before it happens.
Here is a 3rd vote for mint. I like the rounding design. The iris will be pointy at the corner, I was thinking something like new zeland flax might pop in the middle, something with a different texture, even harry lauders walking stick or sense your up north a witch hazel for winder color. Just some thoughts off the top of my head.

the vibrator works 1 out of 10 times!
I must give a little bit at the back of the phone so that it works again, and after 3 or 4 vibration it stops working
I also noticed when the buzzer want to run the phone sounds a little noise as noise (noise like a radio)!
