Can you define BDSM, the way you interpret it?
The way I was taught, there is a sub section between BDSM. It really should be two groups that bang against each other a lot, no pun intended. BDSM means Bondage Domination Sado Masochism, but rarely are they all done at the same time. Some people might like the helplessness and gaining or giving of power that Bondage and Domination provides. Some people might love the giving and receiving of pain and all that goes along with the Sado Masochism. But I know Doms and Dommes (both pronounced Dom) who would run for the hills if they had to really apply painful sensation to someone and some who would be bored to tears tying someone up. The people are as varied as the equipment used but there is something for everyone.
First let's talk about the BD aspect, the Bondage and Domination, if you will. Bondage can mean many things. If you ever had sex and your partner held our hands above your head to halt your movements, you have been dominated. If you have done this, you have dominated. Simply, it is to exert your power over someone. You don't need specialized equipment to do this either. I have topped a few subs (Submissives) with an untied ribbon and my commands alone. You don't need a fancy set up with ropes and leather collars, though those are fun. It is mostly about attitude and personality. As for the bondage, it is simply as it sounds, people being bound. You can be bound by a top's (dominates) words or equipment– leather is my favourite– easily. The hard part is willing giving up power. A submissive has to want to be dominated or it's not going to work. You have to remember that no one can take your power away from you ultimately, unless you allow them.
This is where Safe, Sane, and Consensual come into play.
To force someone into doing something they don't want to do is rape. It can be mental, physical, or emotional, but if your partner is unwilling, it is rape. Honesty is most important in a healthy D's (Dominate) relationship. You have to ask questions and get full and complete answers before you begin. Sometimes contracts are drawn up and amended between the two adults until all parties are satisfied. Submitting to anyone takes a lot of trust and you must be sure not to damage that. Consent must be freely given and accepted before any play is even considered. Trust and Honesty are all.
Now on to, my favorite, the SM! WOOT! I am a sadist and proud. This means that I enjoy inflicting pain upon a person. It's all about the power and control my submissive gives and how I can make them love to hurt for me. Sadism is simply the desire to inflict pain upon another. Masochists like having pain inflected upon them. I should take this time to explain the difference between play pain and serious damage. Pain is probably the wrong word to use, thought it is most commonly associated with SM play. The proper word is sensation. I love to inflict intense sensation on a person who loves it. I will not beat somebody with a bat because i can. That goes back to the consent and abuse issues. Nope, I like to use implements of our choosing to give my sub what they need most.
That sensation can be as gentle as tugging on their hair or as intense as me using a cane safely on their bodies to make them scream. Again, all of this must be discussed between the two parties before anything can begin. And let me tell you, there are a lot of ways to inflict sensation on a person. There are some things that I won't get into, I once saw a branding and thought it was the most horrible thing I had ever seen, and I am not into blood play. So both parties have to come into agreement before play begins.
Everyone has to pay attention so that they not harm themselves or do damage emotionally, physically, or mentally. I have seen some broken subs (read really abused here) and their struggle to overcome what was done to them was difficult to watch.
So to sum this answer up, BDSM in my opinion, are kis
sing cousins if you will and are all related to the giving and taking of power and the giving and receiving of intense sensation for mental and or sexual pleasure. It doesn't have to involve sex at all. Sometimes people want to let go of their responsibilities for a while and have someone care for them and there are others who are willing and eager to take those responsibilities on their shoulders and care for another for a time.
How long have you been active in BDSM?
I was really active in my older teen years. That is when I was introduced to alternative lifestyles and mentored by a great Old School dom named Mike. I miss the big guy! But now that I am married, I keep all sexual play between my husband and I. That is not to say I won't top an individual in a non sexual way from time to time. But anything that involves sex stays at home.
What's the one common misconception about the lifestyle you want to dispel?
I think the most common misconception is that we are all sex crazed lunatics having orgies and beating the hell out of each other. That couldn't be further from the truth. Of course like with anything dealing with people, there are a few rude and ignorant nut jobs that need to be avoided. I am talking the people who read Ann Rice's Sleeping Beauty Trilogy or her Exit to Eden (the book not the movie) and think that its oka
y to hang someone upside down by their feet for hours on in is just fine. This is not what the lifestyle is about. That is just wrong.
There are outlets and resources for people who want to be educated before they dive into this world and I urge anyone who is even a bit curious about it to research, find a legitimate group, and talk to people who are experienced and knowledgeable.
Most people in a D's lifestyle are just like anyone on the streets. It's just that they embrace their kinks wholeheartedly and explore them with their partners or partners. We are wives and mothers, fathers and husbands; we are doctors and teachers, and authors. WE are you average everyday people and of we chose not to share, no one would know that we are in the lifestyle. I think that is neat. I thank the internet for bringing like minded people together and helping to put out accurate knowledge so that people can anonymously check out the lifestyle if they so wish, and learn that most of the times, books and movies get it wrong.
Do you have any guidelines for those who want to see if they are a fit?
First, be honest with yourself. You have to know what you like, what turns you on, what disgusts or horrifies you before you try anything with someone else. After you do your soul searching and understand what you are looking for, you can then begin to seek out avenues to educate and train yourself. You got to know where you fit in yourself before you find someone else with which to explore.
Again, honesty and trust above all else and it starts with yourself.
What makes a good sub for a dom?
I can tell you what I want in a sub, but it varies. Different people want different things. I want a sub that submits fully but makes me work for it a little.It's like little changes. I like Sam's or Sammy's, Smart assed Masochists. They are fun to play with.
I like a sense of humor about all of this too. Really, all of the traits that go into BDSM can be considered mental disorders in some circles. LOL I mean, really. This can be amusing as hell. I don't want a sub that is so serious that this becomes the end all and be all. Yes there are times when this is a bog deal and you have to approach it with decorum and a sense of seriousness, but I don't want to spend my life being all buttoned up. Life is not all about spankings and obedience. If you take yourself too seriously you go crazy.
Also it goes back to having a sub who knows what he wants. I don't like passive aggressiveness or wishy washy answers. Body language is a good tell but people can master that. Some subs will do things they don't like just to make their dom happy. That is plain stupid in my book and quite dangerous. You are in it for mutual pleasure and that means both parties get what they want.
I want a sub with excellent self esteem and who takes care of themselves. I am not your mother. I have kids. I am supposed to be your dom. You come to me clean and ready. I can help you get into the mental state to enjoy what I am doing to you, but if I have to stop to tell you to clean up or if you were responsible for putting the toys back and we can't find what you want, that ends the play for me.
You never play angry, never play when you are drinking, and always approach your sub with the knowledge that they are giving you a gift, the gift of their submission. I want my sub to understand that too.
And above all, I don't want to be abused by my sub mentally or physically or emotionally. It's sometimes easier to abuse a top than you think. And if I feel that I am being played, I walk.
So a great sub is honest, has confidence and pride in themselves, will willingly place their trust in me, and will know and own their submissiveness. They will not play games with their pleasure and at the end of the session, we both walk out more relaxed and feeling great about each other and the world.
I guess because I'm not familiar with it, it seems that I usually hear more about male dom's. Are there more male doms or is it just more "quiet" for lack of a better term to hear about female doms?
Depends on where you go. It was a male Dom that taught me and I was his only female mentee. But I know quite a few female dommes and even more switches. I guess its who you talk to and the area you are in. But there are a lot of females.
I think maybe because power and control are often attributed to men, that seeing a female in that position is shocking and tends to stand out.
Actually, I know more male subs that female. Hm…. *G* Well, they say a good top is hard to find. It's a lot of work! LOL
Okay this is my question..
How exactly do you know if you are a Dom or a sub? What if you like being dominant at times, but other times you just want to give up complete control to your partner. This is what is confusing to some people. We think it is one way only. If you like both, what would that be?
Sorry if this is a dumb question, but as someone who is wanting to try new things with their realtionship/marriage and venture into it, it is one question that is on my mind.
There are never dumb questions, hon.
There is a clasification of people known as switches. These awesom people have th mind set to be both a Dom or a Sub depending on the scene they are in, their partners, or their moods and needs. There are a lot of switches out there and you just may be one?
As fr being a Sub or a Dom, that is all your personality and needs. There is not a bush bone in my body, submitting to someone does absolutely nothing for me. I've tried it and I only felt s mild boredom and a need to tell the guy who was trying to top me what he was doing wrong, definitely not sub like behavior. LOL It was bad for him and bad for me so we stopped and had cheesecake.
No one is better qualified to answer. That question but you! Does the idea of submitting turn you on? Is that what you crave? Do you believe emotionally you would find satisfaction in giving control and power over to someone else? Or is it the opposite. That is why I emphasize a lot of self searching and discovery before you venture forth. You have to know what turns you on. You may be a domme, you may be a sub, you may be a switch. But you will only know after a lot of soul searching and experimentation. You don't have to step into a full scene complete with leather outfit and dungeon room. You can do light play in your bedroom and see what you like best and then go from there.
Great post. I love this series of posts. I've read a lot of fiction with BDSM. It is great to read about the real side of things.
The Wicked Little One had an awesome idea with her fact finding mission. I applauded her asking the right oquestions and opening up a vital discorse about BDSM and the lifestyle in general.
Flash covers a LOT of territory and makes some important points here. One thing I noticed was in SALES of BDSM literature, male dom outsells female domme, but I know in reality there are a a fewer female dominants to way more male submissives, probably due to society culture and a plethora of other things.
Her information is spot on.
Sasha is being quiet here. He is a male Dom and Subs and can give you an intriguing point of view from the male perspective.
And you are right, hon. Male Dom sells a lot more. That may be because the majority of buyers in this market are women. Or because women have so many responsibilities now that they want the fantasy of letting it all go and giving control to another. Who knows?
Thanks, Flash, for being willing to tell us about your lifestyle. I'm enjoying learning all about the "real life" side of this. When I read fiction, in the back of my mind I always have this little voice saying "Does it REALLY work like that?" It's nice to get these different perspectives.
Thanks, Pixie, for being curious enough to ask people! This whole series of posts is fascinating.
No problem at all, Lynda. I am glad to talk about what I have learned and experienced. And it is a blessing to get some actual facts out there to go with the fantasy. Yes, thank you again Pixie!
Fluffy Puppy Bunny stopping in to say: Really wonderful information in both the interview and in the comments. Thank you both for the interview!
Also wanted to give big love to both WLP and Flash!
Thank you for this wonderful post and series. I agree about trust and communication. It's so nice to see actual SSC people speaking openly and to met with such courtesy!
Yeah! My Fluffy Puppy Bunny! She is the scorge of subs everywhere, without even trying! LOL Much love, my PJ. Hugs!
This is amazing Violet. Its great to have someone show intrest in what we do without the craziness that open media adds to it. Its great seeing people actually ask for accurate information before diving into something with information based on a movie they saw or a book they read.
[…] series of interviews about BSDM for the vanilla, curious and/or uniformed last week (check them out here, here and here) that were really interesting. I'm really hoping the series continues. Because […]

Need of money could pop up anytime and for any reason you might find yourself in an urgent need of money. These reasons can be home improvement, any type of investment, pending medical bills, or fee of your children's higher education. Sometimes extra money is required to mount debts.
Choices Available to Homeowners
You can easily take out home equity loans by a number of ways. For instance, you can use home equity lines of credit, reverse mortgages etc. You can also take out a home equity loan. Many homeowners decide to cash out their refinance options. Homeowners have a variety of choices to choose from.
Difference between Home Equity Loan & Cash Out Refinance
If you know the difference between home equity loan and cash out refinance then you can easily decide which option is better for you.
Home Equity loans
It is a type of loan that helps a homeowner when he/she decides to use their home as collateral to take out loan from any lender. In simpler words, a home equity loan is an independent loan on the top of your very first home loan. This loan can be beneficial when you seek to build a new line of credit, or also in the case when you need a moderate amount of cash that you think you can repay easily. You can se this type of loan if you need home renovation, to fulfill the tuition cost, or you can use this loan for dent consolidation.
Advantages of Home Equity Loans
This loan comes with many advantages for homeowners. First advantage is their fair and decent annual percentage rate. Second advantage is that if you have bad credit score then you are still be able to qualify for this loan. Moreover, you can easily take out a substantial amount of loan with this loan along with tax deductible payments through the year.
Disadvantages of Home Equity loan
The biggest disadvantage of this loan outweighs its advantages. This disadvantage is that of you become default on this loan then you will have to lose your home which you have put as collateral. Another disadvantage of this loan that the payments which you got to pay for this loan are other than your regular mortgage payments. In that case, you will have to pay off higher monthly payments. IF you cannot afford to pay its payments, then stay away from it for your betterment.
Cash Out Refinance
It is originally a second mortgage on your house. Cash out refinance replaces your first mortgage loan with a new loan. For example, if you owe an amount of $100,000 on a house that is worth $250,000 and you need an amount of $25,000 to pay off your medical bills. In such a case, you can refinance your mortgage loan for $125,000, normally ending up gaining affordable rate on the amount $100,000 that you still owe on your home and you can get $25,000 difference in your pocket.
Advantages & Disadvantages of Cash Out Refinance
Cashing out refinance is actually an easy way to get your primary mortgage replaced. This means that you will have to pay off the closing costs of several thousand dollars with this loan. ON the other hand, you don't have to pay the closing cost of home equity loan. Advantage of this loan is that, it has lower interest rates that are lower than the rates on home equity loan. It is not worth refinancing when your home equity loan is worth more than the remainder on your mortgage.
What loan you should take out depends on your financial situation and affordability. Before taking any of these loans, review your financial situation and select the best for you.

PANAMA CITY- This week's Golden Apple award winner teaches 4th grade at Lucille Moore Elementary school in Panama City. Stacey Eckles was nominated by a parent, Alicia Golden, who writes: "She's a great teacher who is such a blessing to the children." Those who work alongside Stacey say she is a source of constant encouragement to them as well.
Colleagues say Stacey Eckles sees the glass "completely full." "She always looks for the best in people, and has such a positive attitude. She is one of those people you just want to be around," said Principal Kathleen Schmidt. It's with that attitude that she approaches every day, making her classroom a place where students can dream big dreams. "I want to be a police officer," said Brandlian Smith. "I want to be a doctor so I can help people when they are sick," said Billquist Thompson.
It's here in this 4th grade classroom that Ms. Eckles is living out her dream. "It's just what I was born to do. I love seeing growth in children." For her, building relationships with her students and their families is paramount. "It's absolutely true that old saying that they don't really care what you know until they know that you care. Especially here at our school I think it's important to make those relationships with families so that the kids know, mom knows me, aunt knows me, dad knows me, whoever is taking care of that child knows me and knows that I care," said Ms. Eckles. "We are trying to prepare these kids for middle school and getting used to taking more ownership of their learning, more responsibility," she said.
She is instilling in students the confidence that they'll be ready. "I always understand what to do and if we don't we ask her and she tells us," said Brandlian. "She is nice. She is funny. She is cool. She is a wonderful teacher and I like working with her," said Billquist.
Congratulations to Stacey Eckles, this week's Golden Apple award winning teacher.

It seems funny to me that in a state that abortions are legal and public money can be used to perform them that we would even be having a debate on a Death with Dignity bill. If women can make a choice on the life of a fetus than I should be able to decide my own fate if faced with a terminal illness. Could an opponent of this bill please explain the difference between the two to me?
Im pretty sure there isnt one other than they like sticking their nose in somebodys elses business, which, by the way, they know nothing about.If you are opposed to the bill and it hopefully passes you are allowed to make your own decision on ending your life or not so do the people who choose to end there live without undo suffering and butt out.

Check for dead links
I have thousands of saved links, a number of which came from Delicious almost 5 years ago.
I would love the ability for Diigo to display a notification is a page is no longer available (if it gets a 404 error, a domain that doesn't exist, or even if a domain is now "parked").
It would be great to know which bookmarks are dead. Even better. To get a mail digest of the bookmarks that have been dead during one month. That way I could maintain my bookmarks better. Should I update the link? Do I delete it? Anything I need to save/digest from the cache?

Why don't you (Diigo) even send the domain manager a notification saying that some Diigo users have bookmarked their page, and would appreciate it coming back or receiving a permalink? I mean knowing my link is gone is less bad than clicking it to learn that, but the larger concept is probably to minimize dead links.
Or alternatively make sure caching your copy of the page forever in that case.
Goal being to persist your bookmarked content as much as possible....
I guess actively handling dead-links and passively handling them should be competing items on your backlog.
...Sorry if this post was too heavy for anyone out here

If the page is now redirected, the bookmark's URL should be updated to reflect the new URL so that existing page caches and information can be maintained. There is no guarantee that an existing redirect will always work so I have to make a new bookmark to ensure things continue to work.

Results tagged ' Freddy Garcia '
Back In Business
Well, after a few games against Baltimore (two losses and one win) in which the lineup didn't exactly produce a bevy of runs, the bats came through today, albeit in the most unlikely of places. Though Joe Mauer had a key hit towards the end of the game, it was the 8-2 slots in the order that did most (all!) of the damage…
Brendan Harris: 3-4, 2 R
Alexi Casilla: 2-4, 2 R, 1 RBI
Denard Span: 3-4, 2 R, 3 RBI
Nick Punto: 2-3, 2 RBI
This is nice to see from this club, as the 2006 season proved what magic can happen when both the big boppers and scrappy "piranhas" alternate in picking each other up.
Of course, it helped today that Nick Blackburn stymied the O's bats for seven innings (what should happen when one faces that dead-end squad). After missing his previous scheduled start due to a family emergency, it was nice to see Blackie turn in a great effort after struggling so in the month of April.
In other news, the reason for the week-long break from this blog was due to the fact that our family just completely the vast majority of a move from Fergus Falls, Minnesota (the town I had grown up in since Kindergarten) to Forest Lake, MN, a town about 30 miles or so north of the Metro area. The negative: Uprooting an entire family (I'm currently living with my parents and multiple siblings). The positive: Closer to Target Field!!
Preview (21-11, 1st, 3.5 GA DET): Freddy Garcia (1-2, 5.28) vs. Kevin Slowey (4-2, 4.93). Off day Monday (I bet Mauer is relaxing at his cabin already!) before the rival ChiSox make their first trip to our new home turf. Let's home it is just as "accommodating" to them as the old place.
This Is Why I Don't Like Math
I contemplated doing a lengthy piece tonight about how the Twins are done and how it finally came to this point. With the Tigers' magic number down to 2 to clinch the AL Central, things sure are looking grim for our boys.
However, if there's one thing I've learned over the past few years, it has been to never give up on the Twins. They seem to play their best with their backs up against the wall, and I'm hoping that proves true tomorrow as well.
Here's the way I look at it: A loss tomorrow and the whole ball of wax is gone, that much is mathematical. However, a win would actually swing some momentum back in our favor a little bit. Would we be in great position? No. But at least Detroit would have to beat the likes of Jake Peavy, Freddy Garcia, and John Danks, while we would get Zack Grienke on our turf and than not much else from the Royals.
So, I'm not giving up yet. Two seasons of Twins late-season heroics ('06, '08) are on my side. Let's see what tomorrow brings.
Preview (82-76, 2nd, 3.0 GB DET): Scott Baker (14-9, 4.48) vs. Nate Robertson (2-2, 5.56).

Having trouble learning to play arpeggios with your picking hand? This week I'm going to show you an exercise I came up with when I first started playing fingerstyle. At the time, I found it hard to play arpeggios in a p-i-m-a pattern. My fingers just weren't coordinated enough so they all just wanted to pluck all of the strings at the same time. That's why I came up with this exercise to help train my fingers to do what I wanted them to do. This is something you can do on just about any hard surface so you don't need a guitar around to do it. Read more at the link below.

The Detroit Lions have hired Baltimore Ravens offensive coordinator Jim Caldwell to replace Jim Schwartz as new head coach according to a report by ESPN on Jan. 14. The move comes a day after Ken Whisenhunt, one of their other top candidates, was hired by the Tennessee Titans.
Caldwell, who served as head coach with the Indianapolis Colts from 2009 to 2011, gives the Lions that head-coaching experience they have been looking for and will certainly help a potent Lions offense produce even more.
In his three seasons with the Colts, Jim Caldwell led the Colts to a 26-22 record including a trip to the Super Bowl where his team suffered a loss to the New Orleans Saints. The team went to the playoffs the following year but when quarterback Peyton Manning went down with a season-ending injury, the Colts went just 2-14. But the 58-year-old new head coach of the Lions has proven that he can be a successful coach when surrounded by talent.
Caldwell will be challenged to reach a team that has suffered a late-season collapse under prior coach Jim Schwartz. The 7-9 finish capped another disappointing season for the Detroit Lions, a team that appeared to be on the rise.
Jim Caldwell was reportedly the first person to interview for the Detroit job.

Isaac Newton created a scientific explanation of the workings of the university that held sway until the twentieth century. Based on the concept of gravity and three laws of motion that related to it, the Newtonian construct placed astronomy and physics on a firm mathematical foundation. Born in England, Newton was educated at Trinity College in Cambridge. As a relatively young man, by 1667 he had developed his ideas on universal gravitation and its consequences, the nature of white light, and the calculus. In the same year he was elected a fellow of Trinity College and two years later succeeded to the chair of his mentor Isaac Barrow. In 1696 Newton was named warden of the Mint and in 1699 he became its master. While still officially associated with Cambridge, his work at the mint effectively ended Newton's academic career.
Born: 1642.
Died: 1727.01.01.

Miami got a first and goal down around the 10, with their first team offense
still on the field.
1st down, Sammy Morris sqieezes through for a yard
2nd down, Daunte's pass for McMichael is off target
3rd down, Daunte finds Chambers over the middle, and he nearly makes it into
the endzone. He's marked down at the 1.
4th down, Miami decides to go for it, being behind just 3-0.
I can't fault the decision. You want to see what your players can do. But,
Miami called what amounts to a slow developing play. Ronnie Brown took the
handoff, and they ran a trap to the right side. Anderson got his guy.
Hadnot got his guy. And Jeno James pulled to go into the hole first and
knock out the linebacker.
Only...James got his feet tangled with Culpepper, and tripped. He dove for
the pile, but succeeded only in hitting a defender on the ground. Brown
went into the line, the untouched linebacker clobbered him.
(a) I wonder if they would have called the same thing if the game had
counted, and (2) I wonder if Brown might have given a little more effort had
the game counted.

1985 Honda Civic CRX
If I had to describe my blue 1985 Civic CRX in one word, that would be it.
I bought it sight-unseen from a dealer my father knew. I took delivery one Saturday morning and drove to my parents' house to show it to Mom and my sister, taking the shortcut through the park so I could play with my new toy on the twisty part in the gorge between the old mill and the goldfish pond.
By the time I got to the house, I was thinking to myself, "This is perfect! It's like Honda read my mind. Someone finally built the car I've always wanted!"
That CRX was perfect. Completely, absolutely perfect. The most perfect car I had ever owned, driven, ridden in, or even looked at from ten yards away.
Let me explain what made it so perfect.
As it says in my official Car Lust biography, I learned to drive "on a succession of pathetic mid-70s domestic cars." To be specific, I learned to drive in a '67 Le Mans (not quite a '70s car, I know), a '73 Catalina, and a '76 Ford LTD. Not long after I got my license, my father acquired a '74 Vega.
I learned very quickly that I do not like bigger cars--and so I ended up preferring the Vega over Dad's large-barges. The Vega was small and light and had no power steering, which helped me to appreciate road feel and maneuverability. Being a Vega, it also taught me to appreciate build quality and durability--which it lacked completely. In fact, every car we had had in this period its share of quality-control problems, the Monza Wagon which replaced the Vega being the worst offender of a very bad lot.
I didn't like the rococo Elvis-in-Vegas look, with the opera windows and the vinyl roof and hood ornament and the faux-chrome plastic trim all over the dashboard--like you had in, say, the LTD. I'd always wanted a clean-lined space-age Car Of The Future. The Starship Enterprise didn't have a hood ornament or a vinyl roof, why should I have to put up with that nonsense?
Since we lived in Northeast Ohio, my first winter as a driver was a crash course (metaphorically speaking) in the practical skills necessary to get RWD Detroit iron through the snow. I remember counter-steering frantically to keep the car in its lane whenever the rear end broke traction. (The Le Mans was especially prone to this.) I also noticed that the folks around me in Rabbits and Civics were having a lot less trouble. I began to think that this newfangled "front wheel drive" might be something I wanted.
The last car I had before the CRX was a decommissioned Ohio State Highway Patrol Plymouth Fury with a 440 Interceptor under the hood. It was too big and used too much gas, and it had mediocre bench seats and full sensory deprivation steering gear--but it also had decent throttle response and brute roadholding grip. Lots of brute roadholding grip. Oh, man, could it corner!
I had looked at the Rabbit GTI in the fall of 1983, but it was priced just out of my reach. I'd kind of resigned myself to just living with the Fury for the forseeable future, and then I got a call from a friend of mine I usually call "Perk." Perk has an honest-to-Colin-Chapman Lotus Elan S4 in his garage, and he's forgotten more about performance cars than I'll ever know. On matters automotive, I trust him completely.
Perk called because he'd just gotten home from a visit to his local Honda dealer, where he'd test-driven the new CRX. He was as enthusiastic about it as he'd ever been about anything. "You should get one," he kept saying. "It's exactly what you want."
There was no Honda dealer in the town where I was living, but I investigated the CRX as best I could. It looked good on paper. Car & Driver liked it. Motor Trend liked it. Road & Track liked it. The MSRP was just barely within reach, but I could swing it. I mentioned it to Dad, Dad called his dealer friend and set up the transaction, I pulled my car money out of savings and drove up to my old hometown with checkbook in hand.
I got as much CRX as I could afford. That meant settling for the base ("DX") model instead of the fuel-injected air-superiority version, and passing up the opportunity to get dealer-installed AC and fancy alloy wheels. The DX model had a carbureted 1.5-liter engine making a mere 76 horsepower--but since those 76 ponies only had 1,819 pounds of car to tug on, the straight-line performance was better than you might think. The car magazines clocked it at 10.1 seconds 0-60, which doesn't sound all that great until you realize that it was the equal of the contemporary Rabbit GTI, completely outclassed the competing 2M4 Fiero and EXP, and trailed the much more muscular Cavalier Z24 by less than half a second.
It felt even faster than it was, thanks in part to a low seating position which put your rump down close to the road, and in part to a smooth clutch and a 5-speed transmission that fit the engine perfectly. I quickly developed an optimum 0-60 dash technique--cue up Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers' "Refugee" in the cassette deck, drop the hammer on the first chorus, shift in time with the music, and sing along at the top of your lungs. Trust me, if you shifted every time Tom Petty changed guitar chords, the tach needle would be right there in the powerband where you wanted it.
Once you were up to cruising speed, the fun was only starting. If you simply read the specifications, the suspension doesn't sound all that exciting: MacPherson struts and vented discs up front, but a beam axle and drum brakes in the rear. Sure, there were sway bars, and it had rack and pinion steering, but a beam axle? They're kidding, right?
They weren't kidding. It may not have been a fully independent suspension or all-disc brakes, but you couldn't tell by how it handled. It took curves gracefully, and the more curves the journey had, the more fun you had. I had an eight-mile one-way daily commute over country roads at that time, and in the CRX it was the highlight of my workday.
As for build quality, it was a Honda. 'Nuff said.
Oh, and fuel economy? 32 MPG combined city and highway. On a long trip with mostly freeway driving, it broke 40 MPG easily. (The lighter "HF" version, which was optimized for fuel economy, did over 50 MPG in highway driving.)
The CRX wasn't drop-dead beautiful--I thought the Fiero had it beat in the styling department--but it was pleasant to look at. It had a touch of the Giorgetto Giugiaro creased-and-folded look, with just enough curvature to balance that out. It was comfortably into my desired Car Of The Future territory, but it didn't draw a lot of attention to itself--which allowed me to surprise a few 4-cylinder Fieros in the stoplight grand prix.
Inside, the layout of the gauges and controls--what the aviation guys call "cockpit integration"--was superb, the best I had ever seen. I had some long-legged basketball-playing friends who occasionally bummed a ride from me, and they fit comfortably in the passenger seat. The cargo area was simply cavernous. The only thing "wrong" with it was that it was a two-seater (though it was sold as a 2+2 in Europe and Japan), which was really no disadvantage until I started a family.
My CRX served me faithfully through five trouble-free years until it was totaled in a wreck on a rainy night. It's a tribute to the lightweight CRX's structural engineering that I walked away uninjured. Had it not been destroyed, I would have had to get rid of it within a couple of years, as soon as the kids started coming along, due to the absence of a back seat.
The 1985 model year was the last year for the "original" CRX. Beginning in 1986, Honda replaced the recessed headlights with flush-mounted units, which to my mind took away some of the character. The second generation CRX, which was introduced in 1988, added flared wheel arches and general curviness to the bodywork, and adopted a sophisticated double-wishbone suspension that makes it a tuners' favorite to this day. The second-gen is a "better" car by every objective measure, but I can't warm up to it. Call me old-school, or just old-fashioned, but I prefer the original.
First-generation CRXs are relatively rare these days. I did see one in the wild last summer, while we were driving through Pittsburgh. It was a white DX, an '84 or '85 with recessed headlights, stock wheels and hubcaps, no dents, no rust. Beautiful.
The driver looked content, as well he should have been. He was driving the perfect car.
The vintage advertising illustration at the top, and the scale drawing, came from the image gallery at The CRX Page. The other photos came from the "Readers' Rides" gallery at Honda Tuning magazine's website. The blue '85 belongs to "relic85" and the red one to "Sgt. Pepper." (If either of you ever want to sell your CRXs, let me know.)

Health Care"It's time we asked ourselves if we still know the freedoms intended for us by the Founding Fathers." — Ronald Reagan
Right now we are looking at a federal government that has expanded beyond what the Founding Fathers ever thought imaginable. Somewhere along the way, Washington thought it would be a good idea to invade what is possibly the most personal aspect of our lives: our healthcare. And a government that controls your health, essentially controls you.
As the thousands of pages of Obamcare reveal themselves and put Americans out of work, out of business, and even out of health insurance, Democrats will be trying to plead ignorance to the public. They will say that they didn't know what was in those pages. They will try to move further and further away from President Obama, Speaker Pelosi, and that fateful day in 2009, when they succumbed to political pressure at the cost of people's lives and livelihood—just as Senators Bill Nelson of Florida, Max Baucus of Montana, Ron Wyden of Oregon, and Maria Cantwell of Washington (Wall Street Journal 1.5 pages), head of the Center for Consumer Information and Insurance Oversight.

I say, hey Negrita, hey now
Move your body, move your mouth
Shake lady, way down south
Shake baby, in your home town
Come si chiama, what's you game
I'm just a poor man, what's your name
Shake your body, do it up now
Shake body, move it up now
Hey Negrita, hey now
Hey Conchita, shake it up now
Bate las caderas, do it up now
Flash of gold in your ears, child
Flash of gold in your eyes
Saw the gleam in your mouth
Saw the steel in your thighs
Bate las caderas, do it up now
Just a momentita, not so fast
I need money, my sweet ass
Listen I'm a poor man, my pay is low
Here's one last dollar, then we go
"One last dollar", she say, "I got my pride"
Going to get your boss
Going to tan your hide
Hey Negrita, hey now
Hey Negrita, do it right now
Hey Negrita, hey now
Hey Negrita, hey now
Hey Negrita, hey now

From now until November 13th, a promotional event around food will be held at Le Printemps de la Maison (the home section of the famous Parisian department store). The event is called Les Invasions Gourmandes, which could be loosely translated as "gourmet invasions", and involves a variety of artists, culinary designers and chefs who will do their best to entertain, surprise and delight.
To my great pleasure and honor, I have been asked to participate, and can now unveil one of the projects I've been working on, in the company of culinary stage designer Marion Chatelain. The event we have thought up and created is a Bar à Veloutés ("velvety bar") — two (free) tasting sessions during which our visitors will be able to compose their own little glass of creamy goodness, sweet or savory, with the toppings and edible accessories of their choice.
If you are in the area at the time of our sessions, please come by, we will be happy to have you!
3rd floor of Le Printemps de la Maison
64 bd Haussman, 75009 Paris
– Thursday, November 4th, from 6pm to 8pm,
– Saturday, November 6th, from 3:30pm to 5:30pm.

Rated 5 out of 5 by BethBeth OMG. So freaking convenient, it is cray. You need to get up and get one. Never again will you have spills. May 28, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by jbiker614 Good Thought - Poor Result I was disappointed with this product. The idea is what attracted me, BUT, you need a rimless bowl and even then, the inside flap of the spout does not fit snuggly, resulting in what you are trying to pour out seeping under and around the spout. I also tried the spout on my ceramic bowls and had the same result. That kind of defeats the purpose. A great idea that needs tweaking. March 1, 2014

SEATTLE -- University of Washington sophomore Tyreese Breshers' playing career has come to an end due to medical reasons, Husky Coach Lorenzo Romar announced on Wednesday.
The medical reason will not be disclosed due to HIPAA regulations.
Breshers, from Los Angeles' Price High School, redshirted his first year at Washington in 2008-09 before becoming a regular contributor on the Huskies' Sweet Sixteen and Pac-10 Tournament Championship squad. He started 12 games and played in 34 overall, averaging 3.0 points and 2.6 rebounds. Breshers ranks fifth all-time among UW freshmen with 26 blocks and owned a team-best average of 3.1 blocks per 40 minutes.
"Any time you lose a family member it is tough," said Romar. "Tyreese was a big part of our program, but his long term well-being is much more important than the game of basketball. We are fortunate that he will be around our program and get his degree from the University of Washington."

Not much has changed this year. The weapons and gear are of ilvl 470 quality and the minimum level requirement is 89 to get into the headless horseman fight. As always this is a good chance to get some raid quality gear for a few minutes of work.
Also added this year is the Pandaria trick or treat baskets. Trick or treating has arrived in Pandaria. The geniuses at Ice-veins.com have written up a good guide for all the events during Hallow's End.
One thing to keep in mind with the Pandarian buckets is that if you haven't done the quest hubs in that area the bucket might be phased out. This will obviously be a problem for lower levels that are looking for chances to gain quick xp.
As always wand charges will be popular, though ever year since their introduction there have become more and more scarce opportunities for sales. This might be your year to give back to the gang and give some free wand shots. Yes, I know. sacrilegious to many gold goblins but still it's only a few gold. For those starting out their gold goblin questing this is the best opportunity to obtain gold between wand shots and running out for trick or treat gold.
The new pandarian trick or treat bucket coordinates are

There are two pets that are available during the holiday
Feline Familiar
Sinister Squashling
Both are tradeable so look for many of these to be on the Auction House. Saving two or three in your bank for later in the year can rake in some extra profit. Even if you have learned the maximum three of the pet you can set aside the rest to relearn once you have caged and sold one from your collection.
Both are sold for 150 Tricky Treats by toy vendors in the major cities. If you run your toons through all of the different trick or treat buckets you will end up with around 300+ treats. This should allow you to buy 1 of each of the pets for your collection or for resell. Just keep in mind that everyone will be doing this so the market will be fierce during the event. This might be an excellent opportunity to take the pet and train them to a higher level for more value.
Where many times we talk about the monetary quests and opportunities but this is one of the most fun events that Warcraft has on it's agenda. So run out with your favorite mask and go boo to someone. It's a holiday, I will bring the smores.
Good luck and Good Hunting

Not too sticky. Not greasy at all. In response to the other review, this is not a product for spiking up short hair... but a wonderful product for adding a nice dirtiness to hair that always looks too clean, too flat, and too straight.

Redken Rough Pasteredken rough paste is alright, it does what it says by protecting from heat damage, but the base ingredient is petrolatum, which is very greasy. it is not good for spiking up short hair, because your hair ends up feeling like you just dipped your head in a tub of crisco.

The Department of Health and Human Services [HHS], the federal agency overseeing the roll out of the Affordable Care Act [ACA], or Obamacare as it's become known, released a report Wednesday that shows the affordability and availability of health plans under the ACA. Americans who qualify for tax credits through the new federal insurance exchange are paying an average of $82 a month in premiums for their coverage—about one-fourth the bill they would have faced without such financial help.
Since October 1, 2013, the report notes, over eight million Americans have selected a private health insurance plan through the Marketplace, the vast majority of whom are receiving financial assistance—making coverage even more affordable. For many that is good news, but for others, like Ohio Lt. Gov. Mary Taylor who also directs the state's insurance department that regulates insurers, that news was immediately dismissed.
In a statement from Taylor spokesman Chris Brock to CGE, it's all too good to be true. "After promises of lower health insurance premiums for Americans and a commitment that if you liked your plan, you could keep your plan, Obamacare has failed to deliver," he said via email. "Premiums are rising faster in Ohio today than before Obamacare harming job creators and consumers at a time when our economy is recovering and growing."
According to reporting on the 28-page report, there exists wide variations among states in the premiums that people are paying for their new insurance, the amount the government is picking up and the proportion who qualify for the subsidies. The first sign-up period that started last October got off to a terribly rocky start, giving Republicans like Taylor and her boss Gov. John Kasich, running for a second term this year, plenty of ammunition to fire at the ACA as a flawed program that's only made America's system of private insurance even worse than before the ACA was approved by Congress and signed into law by President Obama in March of 2010.
The passage of the ACA is largely cited as the flash point bill that energized the formation of the Tea Party that year, a midterm election year in which the GOP won an impressive 63 seats in the U.S. House of Representatives, returning control of the people's chamber to GOP control. Since Republicans took back the House, gridlock in Washington has been ever present, so much so that Republicans shutdown the government for over two weeks last year at a cost of about $25 billion.
One statistic from the report backers of the ACA will cheer but its critics will jeer is that the new federal insurance exchange—which Ohio participates in because Kasich and Taylor decided early on immediately after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled the ACA constitutional—are now paying an average of $82 a month in premiums for their coverage, an amount that's about one-fourth the bill they would have faced without such financial help.
Brock cited a recent survey from Enroll America that said 48 percent of consumers did not try to buy coverage due to cost concerns and said what that subsidization looks like in terms of real dollars has been overlooked. In Ohio specifically, he said, HHS reported the average premium before subsidy was $372 per month and $111 after subsidy. "If that is correct, that means – on average – each enrollee is getting a $261 per month subsidy paid for by taxpayers. Multiply that by 154,000 Ohioans who selected a plan and if my math is correct, that's $40 million per month in federal tax subsidies or nearly $500 million per year in Ohio alone."
Another conservative view of Obamacare that chaffes at findings in the HHS report can be found in this report at Forbes.com, which looks at data more than 3,000 counties across the nation and concludes that Obamacare has increased 2014 individual-market premiums by an average of 49 percent.
Under the ACA this year, the government started to help pay for private insurance coverage in the new marketplaces for people whose incomes reach into the middle class for the first time—the lower the income, the higher the tax credit. Among the 50 states, California and Florida lead the way for state and federal health-care sign-up markets. HHS has previously reported that 87 percent of the 5.4 million Americans who chose a health plan through the federal health exchange qualified for some financial help.
Highlights of the report: Individuals who selected plans in the federally facilitated market [FFM] with tax credits7 have a post-tax credit premium that is 76 percent less than the full premium, on average, as a result of the tax credit—reducing their premium from $346 to $82 per month. Sixty-nine percent of individuals selecting plans with tax credits in the FFM have premiums of $100 or less after tax credits—nearly half (46 percent) have premiums of $50 or less after tax credits. Individuals choosing silver plans in the FFM tended to select lower premium plans—65 percent chose the lowest or second-lowest cost silver plan. Most individuals had a wide range of health plan choices. Eighty-two percent of people eligible to purchase a qualified health plan live in rating areas with 3 to 11 issuers in the Marketplace; 96 percent live in rating areas with 2 to 11 issuers in the Marketplace. Competition, as measured by the number of issuers in a rating area, is associated with more affordable benchmark plans (the second-lowest cost silver plan) for individuals and reduced costs for the federal government. An additional issuer in a rating area is associated with a 4 percent lower benchmark premium. Areas with a greater number of issuers also tend to offer a wider range of choices among plan types (e.g. PPOs, HMOs, CO-OP) to better meet consumers' preferences and financial needs.
Washington Post reporter Amy Goldstein wrote that the average monthly tax credit this year is $264, and that "without the federal help, the average premium chosen by people eligible for a tax credit would have been $346 per month, and the subsidy lowered the consumers' premiums, on average, by 76 percent." The result, she said, is that four out of five people with subsidies are paying premiums of no more than $100 a month, as she reminded readers that that figure does not include money that would pay for insurance deductibles and other out-of-pocket costs. The ACA put a ceiling on what the insured have to pay, a limit that did not exist before the law, and prevented insurance companies from denying coverage to people with so-called pre-existing conditions. Differences in prices among states was due to differences in their hospital industries and to how many of the health plans were lower-price HMOs, an official cited in WaPo's report said.
Meanwhile, a new study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association from a pediatrician at Boston's Children's Hospital finds an increase in the number of people who report they are in excellent physical and mental health and that this group has spent less out-of-pocket for health care, according to the LA Times.

- Registered users only
This paper draws attention to the central role played by the Ethiopian state in reconfiguring contemporary (agro-)pastoral conflicts in its semi-arid lowlands. Contrary to primordialist and environmental conflict theories of pastoralist violence, we shed light on the changing political rationality of inter-group conflicts by retracing the multiple impacts of state-building on
pastoral land tenure and resource governance, peacemaking and custommary authorities, and competition over state resources. Based on an extensive comparative review of recent case studies, post-1991 administrative
decentralisation is identified as a major driving force in struggles for resources between transhumant herders in Ethiopia's peripheral regions.
Our analysis emphasises the politicisation of kinship relations and group identities and the transformation of conflict motives under the influence of the gradual incorporation of (agro-)pastoral groups into the Ethiopian nation-state. Ethnic federalism incites pastoralists to engage in parochial types of claim-making, to occupy territory on a more permanent basis and to become involved in 'politics of difference' with neighbouring groups.

Between Flagstaff and Sedona, in the Coconino County, the scenic route has plumes of smoke rising into the sky as a wildfire races over the dry and rocky terrain. Reported today, May 24, hundreds of firefighters are working to keep residents and other communities safe, as weather conditions continue to change throughout the day.
According to news reports, the fire started Tuesday night in the area known as, Oak Creek Canyon, charring 450 acres. But within 5 days, the fire has now spread to more than 7,000 acres. It's a sad week as the Arizona wildfire charges through the popular tourist scenic area, nestled along the Mogollon Rim, best known for its picturesque scenes. What firefighters worry most about is keeping the fire at bay; not letting is cross state route 89A, because more than 300 homes would be in its path.
As the fire continues to char through the brittle peaks and valleys, the Arizona wildfire is now being called "The Slide Fire," as it shifts "just north of Slide Rock State Park." Firefighters have their hands full as they wade through the rocky terrain, chop back brush, and use common firefighting methods known as, "burnout operations," said Tony Sciacca, a firefighter commander. Investigations are ongoing for the start of this fire and reports indicate it may have been started by a person, not by mother nature. Arizona is known for their thunder and lightening storms, which have caused some fires, but this case is leaning toward human fault. Small town businesses and residents in Northern Arizona typically count on and look forward to this holiday; instead they are forced to focus on evacuation orders. Some business owners decided that government officials waited to long implementing fire restrictions, and wished they would have acted sooner.
Yesterday, owner's of Wanderlust Brewing Company, located in Flagstaff, Ariz., published an open letter on their Facebook page to the Coconino National Forest and the City of Flagstaff, describing their concerns.
"Several of our surrounding forests (Prescott and Tonto) have already taken the steps to implement [fire restrictions], and they are NOT currently battling a 7,500 acre blaze with a firefighting force the size of a small town." The letter goes on suggesting they should've taken earlier measures to protect their communities, until waiting till it's too late, and should have taken safer actions rather than worry about revenues. "The decision you made, no matter what the factors were, neglected the most important factors, and this is the people who live and work in this town." This open letter has since received more than 300 likes, and 42 comments. Henry Teller wrote, "I can't hit LIKE enough … wish all local business would write similar letters. Thank you Nate!" And within hours of this being posted miraculously a Coconino County-wide fire ban went into effect immediately Friday, May 23 at 10:30 a.m., according to a Coconino County news release.
The ban includes: "all open fires, campfires, and other pyrotechnic displays on private and public lands in the unincorporated areas of the County," and other restrictions are included.

Illamasqua Human Fundamentalism vol. 2
I am a little bit behind with news from Illamasqua…sorry. Anyway, you probably know by now that the Human Fundamentalism collection got new products in addition – 2 lipsticks and 4 eyeshadows.
I already said how crazy I am about Eurydice lipstick and I am waiting for it to arrive in mail <3
Too bad it is impossible to capture a this beauty on a photo because it is so bright, almost neon. Other lipstick is called Liable, it is beautiful tomato red, with orange undertone.
I must say that the new eyeshadows have better texture than the others, they are smoother, more pigmented and easier to apply. And matte!
L – R: Inception, Vapour, Hype, Fledgling.
Not bad, huh?
Of course I had to try Eurydice while I was in store. For the short period I had it on my lips, I must say that it isnt quite as drying as I expected and it has good staying power. This is going to be my favorite lipstick this summer!
What do you like or don't like from this collection?

So I was sleeping in today at my apartment, and I just got done having some drywall work done because the ceiling in my bathroom was leaking from the apartment above. And the Drywall guy was fine yesterday, but today I wake up to someone in my apartment who is talking loudly and wondering around. He doesn't knock or state that he is maintenance, so I didn't know what the heck was going on.
So I get up out of bed and check to see who the hell is in my apartment wondering around, I see there is a bucket of paint, so I figure out it is just a maintenance guy. But when I go out to my living room, he is sitting there, on my ******* couch eating my ******* food. When I confront him about it he says that it is his own food that he is eating and not mine. I tell him to get to work or GTFO, and that I will be calling my landlord about this.
I can only imagine what would have happened if I wasn't here today. I'm not racist but the guy was Mexican and I could hardly understand anything he was saying. I think i scared the **** out of him, but I don't really care.
Just a story I thought you would all enjoy.

WOODLAND, Calif. - Senior Katie Rulon of the UCLA women's water polo team has captured MPSF Co-Player of the Week honors, as announced Monday by the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation (MPSF). Rulon led the Bruins (15-3, 4-0 MPSF) with nine goals in three games over a two-day span last weekend.
Rulon, who has scored in 17 of UCLA's 18 matches, totaled three goals in an 11-5 MPSF victory over No. 7 California on Saturday. After scoring one goal in a 22-3 rout of Cal Lutheran in the morning, Rulon followed with a season-high five-goal effort to lead the Bruins past Cal State Northridge, 9-3.
The senior attacker from Point Loma, Calif., has totaled nine multiple-goal games this season, including one five-goal performance (March 8) and one four-goal effort (Feb. 7, vs. Hawai'i). Rulon enters this Thursday's match against No. 9 UC Irvine with 36 goals, the second-highest total on the team.
Rulon currently ranks ninth among all MPSF scorers in goals per game, averaging 2.00 goals per contest (36 goals, 18 matches). One year ago, Rulon led the Bruins with 62 goals.
Rulon becomes the third Bruin to earn the conference's weekly honors this season. Seniors Tanya Gandy (Jan. 26) and Brittany Fullen (Feb. 16) have also been named MPSF Player of the Week.
No. 3 UCLA returns to action against No. 9 UC Irvine (11-4) in a non-conference match at the Bruins' Sunset Canyon Recreation Center. Game time is 3 p.m.

Google Swarmed by Short-Term Option Bulls
Schaeffer's Investment Research
GOOG fans are buying soon-to-expire call options.
Option bulls took a shine to
(NASDAQ:GOOG) this morning, with the stock up 2.3% at $907.25 as of 11 a.m. EDT, after touching a record high of $911.76 earlier. Within the first 90 minutes of trading, GOOG saw roughly 55,000 calls change hands -- nearly four times its average intraday call activity -- as traders gamble on more upside this week.
Garnering the most attention have been the May 900 and 910 calls, which have seen around 6,200 and 6,600 contracts cross the tape, respectively. Most of the calls have traded on the ask side, and volume has exceeded open interest at both strikes, underscoring our theory of newly bought bullish bets.
By purchasing the 900-strike calls at a volume-weighted average price (VWAP) of $9.45, the buyers' profit will increase the higher GOOG soars beyond $909.45 (strike plus VWAP) through the end of the week, when May-dated options expire. Meanwhile, the more ambitious bulls bought the 910-strike calls at a VWAP of $5.15, indicating a breakeven of $915.15. In either case, the maximum risk on the purchase is the initial premium paid for the calls.
Bolstering Google and fueling today's call activity was a report that the company signed licensing deals with
Sony Music
(NYSE:SNE) and Universal Music Group, and will
soon launch a paid music service
to rival Spotify. In addition, traders are likely optimistic ahead of Google's
annual software developers' conference
, slated to kick off this morning in San Francisco. Last year at the conference, the company unveiled Google Glass.
Whatever the motive, today's appetite for short-term calls runs counter to the trend. In fact, Google's Schaeffer's put/call open interest ratio (SOIR) stands at an annual high of 1.39, implying that near-term traders haven't been
put-skewed during the past year.

Half Bathroom Makeover Before and After
Today I wanted to share with you some Half Bathroom Makeover Before and After photos. I have had this bathroom finished for some time but I have hesitated to put up photos because there is no natural light in there! So bear with me, I've edited the photos as best as I could!
Let's start with the floor. Here is the floor before. The wall was a neutral tan color with standard baseboards and tile flooring.
We decided to remove the tiles and refinish the existing concrete for a more modern look. We also chose higher baseboards with a neutral gray color wall.
This are the mirror and lighting fixers before.
I simply spray painted the mirror black.
We also updated the lighting fixtures (please excuse the glare!).
As far as decor goes, I found this Target mirror at Goodwill for next to nothing. Although I liked the blue, it didn't match my décor.
I decided to spray paint it metallic silver and hung it behind the bathroom door.
This was a photo of a side table I posted on Instagram (I'd love it if you followed me!! I post a lot of thing on there that I don't on Facebook and on the blog). I found it for $7.00! It is sturdy and the perfect size for bathroom storage.
I sanded it, painted it, and added new hardware.
That's it! I hope you like my mini half bathroom makeover before and after photos! In case you missed it, I'd love for you to check out my dining room makeover reveal.

The 8th TV movie called, "Jesse Stone: Benefit of the Doubt" (CBS) aired on Sunday May 20, 2012 from 9 to 11 p.m. It is the last & final TV production adapted from the novels written by Robert B. Parker. It surrounds Jesse Stone who is the police chief of a small town called Paradise, Massachusetts. Unfortunately, Jesse was put on suspension by the town council. He's been consulting with the Boston police & trying to deal with his alcohol problem.
"Benefit of the Doubt" stars, Tom Selleck (Jesse Stone), Kathy Baker (Rose Gammon), Kohl Sudduth (Luther 'Suitcase' Simpson), Gloria Reuben (Thelma Gleffey), Stephen McHattie (Captain Healy), William Sadler (Gino Fish), Saul Rubinek (Hasty Hathaway) & William Devane (Dr. Dix).
"Doubt" opened with many outside scenes of Paradise. A car explosion kills the new police chief named William Butler & his re-instated deputy named Anthony D'Angelo. The town council asks Jesse to return to investigate these two deaths. They also give back Jesse's favorite baseball cap that says, "PPD." (Paradise Police Department).
Captain Healy from Boston Police fills Jesse in on what happened. Both of the dead men were burned beyond recognition after the explosion. Jesse finds that a bomb exploded from under the car. Healy tells him that it is a state homicide case where Jesse has to watch his footsteps. Deputy Rose & Suitcase both quit after Jesse was fired.
Jesse visits Jim Gammon who tells him that his wife Rose sold their house, took the kids & left town. He also tells Jesse to find her himself. Jesse is now all alone at the office. He replays the phone message that brought William out to the secluded spot where he was killed. He also goes through the page calender on the desk used by William. He tears out the page written with numbers & letters on it.
Jesse goes home & drinks his usual glass of scotch as Reggie sits there watching him. He falls asleep on his bed & Reggie finally lays down next to him. Was it a dream? Because the very next morning Reggie is seen in his dog bed on the floor. Jesse then takes Reggie back to the scene of the car explosion to look at it again.
Jesse always asks questions & pieces together what people tell him. He doesn't like to speculate because he does not want to be wrong in homicide. He has his instincts too, but has to confirm facts before he solves any crime. Small town gossip says William Butler was dirty & that is what got him killed. Jesse is determined to find out if he was or was not dirty.
Does deputy Rose & Suitcase return to their jobs to help out Jesse? Can Jesse solve these deaths with so little evidence? Was William Butler a corrupt police chief? You can buy the DVD of "Jesse Stone: Benefit of the Doubt" or download it from online at "Amazon.com."
