Small change: Most of the changes to Holden's new VE II Commodore range are under the skin.
31 August 2010
By BYRON MATHIOUDAKIS
GM HOLDEN has revealed basic details of its VE Series II facelift, almost two weeks ahead of its official national launch on September 10.
But the 2011 model year Commodore family's full specification, technical and pricing details will have to wait until then.
Visually, the makeover is minor, bringing a new squarer front fascia incorporating revised headlight shapes, more prominent grille and bumper treatments, an 'aero lip' detail on the sedan's boot lid, redesigned alloys on some models, and four additional colours (a bright red, mid-tone grey, beige and bright yellow).
Inside, there are three distinct 'centre stacks', mouldings, decorations and illumination colours depending on base, sports and luxury grades, a more 'pilot orientated' driving position, fresh features and options, a restyled heater/ventilation/air-conditioning control centre, and an emphasis on quality and craftsmanship.
Of arguably more importance is flex-fuel capability for models fitted with the 3.0-litre SIDI (Spark Ignition Direct Injection) V6 and 6.0-litre Gen-IV V8 in an effort to cut carbon dioxide emissions.
Calling it a "major step forward", Holden says both engines can run on any petrol from 100 per cent pure unleaded, up to 85 per cent bio-ethanol (E85) for a sizeable increase in performance and up to a 40 per cent reduction in CO2 pollution compared to a regular 3.0L or 6.0L powerplant.
From top: Holden Commodore Omega, Holden Ute SSV, Holden Calais V interior, Holden Commodore SSV interior, Commodore Series II badge.Aiding the flex-fuel cause are 31 Caltex service stations that now offer "Bio E-Flex fuel" (as it is branded by the petroleum company) in Adelaide, Brisbane, Canberra, Melbourne and Sydney. This will increase to 100 sites from next year.
However, while this makes the VE Series II the first Australian-made car to offer this technology, the volume-selling 3.6-litre SIDI V6 will not go flex-fuel capable until 2012.
Even without ethanol, a raft of other improvements have lowered the sedan's consumption while raising the V6 models in the Federal Government's Green Vehicle Guide to a four-star rating.
Also contributing to the lower consumption figures are improved aerodynamics, including better underfloor air flow panels (except on base Omega), reduced trim height on Omega and Berlina, airfoils fitted to the front of the Omega, Berlina and Calais sedan rear wheel housings, the redesigned boot lid, and a more aero-friendly front undertray.
Mechanically, the inclusion of a clutched air-conditioning compressor so it does not pump when it is switched off, and a slightly lower engine idle speed on the 3.6L SIDI V6, help lessen petrol use.
As a consequence of all these measures, the 3.0L SIDI V6's combined fuel consumption average is now down by two per cent to 9.1L/100km (formerly 9.3), the 3.6L SIDI V6 owner will now benefit from a three per cent economy gain (down to approximately 9.6L/100km from 9.9) and the 6.0L V8's thirst drops six per cent (from 13.9L/100km to about 13.1).
However, there are no economy improvements for LPG models.
The Omega ute finally ditches the old 180kW/330Nm 3.6L Alloytec V6/four-speed automatic gearbox combination for the much more advanced 3.0L SIDI V6/six-speed auto pairing that the rest of the VE range equivalents received in September 2009, resulting in a 12 per cent improvement in petrol consumption.
Another development in line with the times is the adoption of the Holden-iQ infotainment system – a standard fitment touch-screen device that forms part of a redesigned dashboard.
Among its features are the ability to store CDs on an internal flash drive (not standard on Omega), along with full Bluetooth, USB and iPod/MP3 integration.
On higher-end models it will also support a new advanced high-clarity full-colour mapping sat-nav system with real-time traffic condition info and voice control.
A reverse camera is also present on all models with the exception of the ute.
Breaking down the models, the Omega gains a 6.5-inch centre screen and 16-inch alloy wheels on top of the features already mentioned.
As with previous models, the mid-level Berlina adds a chrome crossbar, its own fog light surrounds, 17-inch alloys and different interior trim.
The Calais scores a heavy chrome bonnet base, a smattering of greater brightwork throughout the body and 18-inch alloys – an inch under the Calais V-Series' wheels.
Sportier models get a "more muscular look", according to Holden, with deeply bolstered seats on both the SV6 and SS, circular air vents, a 'sports' instrumentation pack and racier cabin detailing. The SS V-Series also gets the Calais headlight treatment and its own 19-inch wheel design.

Got shipped an obviously poorly made AR receiver. I didn't want the thing immediately upon inspection. My FFL insisted I had to pay for a transfer fee whether I took it or not, Is this normal? Or should I have refused delivery and made the shipper call tag it back from my FFL? The FFL stated he essentially had to do a "transfer" either way since he had possession. Technically this is probably right I guess, but would most charge for it, is there even any paperwork in this case?
BTW, I went ahead and took possession so I can deal directly with the seller and/or manufacturer since I had to pay either way. Not sure if that was smart or not.

Definition of faze
transitive verb
: to disturb the composure of : disconcert, daunt Nothing fazed her. Criticism did not seem to faze the writer.
faze was our Word of the Day on 06/09/2014. Hear the podcast!
Theme music by Joshua Stamper ©2006 New Jerusalem Music/ASCAP
Examples of faze in a Sentence
You'll never succeed as a writer if you let a little bit of criticism faze you.
the collapse of part of the scenery didn't faze the actors one bit, and they just carried on
Phase and faze
Phase and faze are homophones (words pronounced alike but different in meaning, derivation, or spelling) that may easily be confused. Despite the similarity in pronunciation, these words bear little semantic resemblance to one another.
Although phase can function as a verb – it is found especially in combinations such as phase out, phase in, and phase into, meaning "to end, begin, etc. in phases" – the word is most commonly encountered as a noun, in which it typically carries a meaning related to steps in a process, cycles, or stages of development (as in "phases of the moon").
Faze is generally used only as a verb, and means "to daunt or disconcert." It often appears in negative expressions such as "it didn't faze her a bit" or "nothing fazes him."
Did You Know?
Faze is a youngster among English words, relatively speaking; it first appeared in English in the early 1800s. That may not seem especially young, but consider that when faze first showed up in print in English, the works of Shakespeare were already over 200 years old, the works of Chaucer over 400 years old, and the Old English epic Beowulf was at least 800 years old. Faze is an alteration of the now-rare verb "feeze," which has the obsolete sense "to drive (someone or something) away" and which, by the 1400s, was also being used with the meaning "to frighten or put into a state of alarm." Feeze (fesen in Middle English and fēsian in Old English) is first known to have appeared in print in the late 800s, making it older than even the oldest extant copy of Beowulf in manuscript.
Origin and Etymology of faze
alteration of feeze to drive away, frighten, from Middle English fesen, from Old English fēsian to drive away
First Known Use: 1830

Recently named by enRoute Magazine as "one of the world's 5 best wine regions you've never heard of," the Similkameen wineries are starting to get some of the attention they deserve. This little patch of vineyards and orchards in the hot, dry and sunny Similkameen Valley is turning out some stunning grape and fruit wines. Set amongst the dramatic backdrop of craggy mountains, it is not surprising that wine lovers are starting to take notice.
The Similkameen Valley has been growing fruit and grapes for many years, but it is only recently that there has been a rapid expansion in the number of wineries. Prior to this, many of the grapes were sold to Okanagan wineries and contributed to a number of award winning wines. Now the awards are piling up for wineries in the Similkameen! Dozens of medals have been awarded to Similkameen wineries over the past few years at major national and international competitions. Eight of the Similkameen wineries have joined forces to form the Similkameen Wineries Association (SWA) to help put the spotlight on the exciting developments in this region. Cerelia, Clos Du Soleil, Eau Vivre, Forbidden Fruit, Orofino, Robin Ridge, Rustic Roots, and Seven Stones are working together to welcome everyone to the beautiful Similkameen Valley!
There are currently over 600 acres of vineyards in the Similkameen and a large number of orchards. In fact, the region is considered to be the organic capital of Canada with an estimated 42% of all crops grown organically. This is due to the ideal conditions of dry heat, long hours of sunlight and the famous wind that whips through the valley keeping out pests and diseases.
Part of the reason the Similkameen is making such diverse and interesting wines is the complexity of the local soils. Soils have been deposited from retreating glaciers, meltwaters, floods and streams. Wind-blown soils, alluvial fans and coarse rocky material have been broken down from the surrounding mountains. These soils and the different elevation and aspects of the vineyards and orchards allow successful wines to be made from aromatic whites to full-bodied and complex reds. The sun-drenched, sweet fruit is the perfect basis for an endless array of fruit wines.
It's worth the 20-minute drive from Osoyoos or the 30-minute drive from Penticton to the Similkameen to discover this hidden gem. With all that is happening in the Similkameen, you can bet that this region will not be unheard of for long.

Embassy Series Presents Music of the Vilna Ghetto Experience
On Sept. 15, The Embassy Series opened its new season with a series of moving tributes in conjunction with the Lithuanian government's declaration of 2011 as The Year of Remembrance for Victims of the Holocaust, with performances in Washington, New York City and Vilnius, Lithuania. The evening featured acclaimed baritone Jerome Barry with award-winners pianist Edvinas Minkstimas and violinist Peter Sirotin. "It is truly amazing that despite the great calamity befalling the Jewish people in Vilnius, they still did lead an inspired life replete with theater and musical presentations," Barry said, who founded the Embassy Series in 1994 as a way to promote cultural exchange through "musical diplomacy."

Does anyone know about a Pug Chihuahua cross? I'm looking @ this pup to purchase and only have a days to decide.
This is a big decision to add a dog to your family. We know we want a cross breed, a small dog no bigger then 10 lbs. Don't want a long haired dog. We have boys age 5 & 8. This pup I'm looking at is a Pug Chihuahua cross (mom pug 12 lbs / dad chihuahua 7lbs) breeder indicate that pup should be no bigger then 8 lbs. How is this cross temperment? Please help, and info would be great. I have been reading and looking for about 2 weeks now. And thinking as a family to get a dog for 6 mos. my cats are 13 & 12 years old.

- This question is closed.
Temperment is going to be highly influenced by the way you raise the dog.
It will probably be a bit hyper/high-energy.
May have skin allergies, may not. It's hard to tell which traits a mixed breed will take from each parent.
Good luck.
P.S. Two weeks is not that long to make a big decision like taking on another family member. If you are unsure, you should probably wait.
Scarlet answered on 11/5/07. Helpful? / 2
I'd like to add that there is no way the breeder can guarantee that the dog will be no bigger than 8 pounds. If the mom is 12, the pup could get up to 12, maybe even 14 pounds. And the personality will depend on how the puppy is raised. Pugs and pug mixes tend to be very high strung, and you will need to be prepared to handle characteristics of both the chi and the pug, which could mean skin problems, breathing problems, hypoglycemia, etc.

Yes, I had a darling chihuahua pug mix. She passed away from old age. But, she was absolutely wonderful, & I am still looking for another one just like her! I miss her terribly! She was so cute & full of herself! The eyes were what always touched me the most. No luck so far for me finding another one, so let me know if you come across any like this please! I settled for Pollyanna that is on my profile here!

Do not buy a dog under pressure. That is not the last Pug/Chi cross that will ever live. Take your time on this.
I wanted a dog for a long time before we found our girl Cass. Take your time, this is a huge decision.
How about adopting a rescue dog, where you know something about the temperament?
We have three young boys and a cat. We went w/ a 2 y.o. JRT who was in a rescue foster home for several months. They knew her very well and selected her for us from many dogs.
We really felt like he was custom-picked for us. It is working out great.
Good luck!
Cass answered on 11/5/07. Helpful? / 1
I'm not sure about that cross breed. i have a shih-poo.
they are great with kids and so smart. She was suppose to be 7 lbs. but she's been 5.75 for about a month or two.
good luck, main advice, do as much recerch as you can and make sure it's what you want. plus, it could turn out to be larger or a dog then you wanted. They can't really tell you how big it will be!
Chloe Chanel answered on 11/6/07. Helpful? / 0
I would reconsider the idea of a cross breed and go with a shelter dog if you are looking for a mutt. You have no idea what you are getting when you buy from backyard breeders. They will tell you anything to sell you their dog. The dog could be great or it could be larger and high strung then what you are prepared for. The "designer dog" craze is creating a lot of unhealthy pups and unstable adults. To better understand the quality and traits of a dog you need to go to a reputable breeder for a purebred dog. If that is not an option or to expensive then think about rescuing an older dog, then you see the personality first hand.

text: Went to Braman Cadillac of Miami because my lumbar stopped working. They said they would not accept my 3rd party bumper to bumper warranty. Went home and called Cadillac to find out why one dealership can have this policy when every other dealer accepts them. I talked to Mercedes on the phone. She contacted the service manager, he called me 30 mins later and set up an appointment for me for Thursday morning. I am thankful that Cadillac customer service is absolutely outstanding even when certain dealerships are lacking. To take it to another dealership would be an hour drive away so Thank you Mercedes of Cadillac Customer Care! :)

Do your employees dread change? That's natural, but it can hinder your business's ability to turn on a dime and put you at a disadvantage in today's constantly evolving marketplace. If your employees aren't embracing change, maybe you need to alter your approach to helping them deal with it. Try:1. Abandoning your point of view. Instead of battling change-resistant employees, try to "switch" sides. This doesn't mean resisting change, but simply seeing it from their point of view.2. Joining together. Once you see change from your staff's perspective, you'll have a better idea of what's standing in the way. You—and they—will feel more like a team and can work together to deal with the change.3. Adjusting the "golden rule." Don't treat employees the way you want to be treated—figure out how they want to be treated and what matters to them. When you engage them based on what they care about, you'll be able to win their support for change.

text: I have a 1995 Suburban 5.7 with about 241,000 miles on it. Since I have bought this thing I have almost replaced everything on it to make it run. Fuel pump, fuel pump sending unit, fuel filter, alternator, battery battery cables, cap, rotor, EGR valve and a starter. Every time I come here I usually get my answer by reading the posts doing a search. This times different. I cannot find what I am looking for. Here is my problem now. The truck turns over but will not fire. I am getting spark, I also am getting fuel. I pulled the cap ( no moisture under the cap) to see if the rotor was turning or maybe lagging to see if it was a timing issue. Looks fine. The spark plugs look fine but ( split fires) I was think about replacing them with some E3s for better ignition and wires because it is the only thing I have not done. It is a little warmer up here at the moment so I am not sure if it has to do with the weather? The only thing I can think of is the TPI flooded the vehicle really bad and I need to pull all the plugs is that possible? A direction is what I am looking for if anyone could help that would be great thanks for your time.

Ethanol Could Be Damaging Engines
STATE COLLEGE, CENTRE COUNTY- It seems to be the norm at auto shops. At Stocker Chevrolet in State College, mechanics say customers using the ethanol blend are coming in more than ever. "A lot of the times they will limit the horsepower on the engine,"Jeffrey Wagner, Automotive Technician said. The shop says it is usually older cars, not made to run on ethanol with the problems, but mechanics say some newer cars are also coming in and it is costing customers. "Probably might cost a customer somewhere in the neighborhood of $250 to $300 dollars for the fuel and the labor to do it," Wagner said. Now that the EPA approved a blend of 15 percent of ethanol in gasoline. Penn State fuel science professor Andre Boehman predicts there will be more problems. "It will create a problem if you have a vehicle that can't run on E-15 and you give it E-15,"he said. Boehman says some cars will also experience problems. "Small engines in particular are not to be using E-15 because of compatibility problems with weed wackers and chains saws and small equipment," he said

Date of Stay: July, 2011
Nice campground, right in town. Many spots are seasonal, and getting in, and out can be interesting (down long street, hills on entrance to the street). Great views, great sunsets, easy walk to marina, downtown. Some noise from Hospital cooling towers, and right next to treatment plant. But, these are minor issues for the view, and location. Would stay again.
Date of Stay: May, 2011
I stayed here Monday, and Tue, at begining of season, Very Quiet, peaceful. Staff very friendly, helpful. Tight, downhill entry road, gravel road after arrival on lake front sites. Nice lake views from upper level.

The Eastern religious practice of Tantra emphasizing ritual, meditation, and visualization is the subject of the second exhibition in the museum's new Focus Gallery. Tantra in Buddhist Art features twenty works of art that illustrate the spiritual practices of Tantra in the Buddhist context and document its spread across Asia from the seventh to 17th centuries. Inspiration for this exhibition began with a magnificent piece from a bequest to the museum. Hevajra was part of a gift from John and Maxeen Flower and is the defining piece of Tantra in Buddhist Art. We spoke with Sonya Rhie Quintanilla, the George P. Bickford Curator of Indian and Southeast Asian Art, about how she built the exhibition around Hevajra and the history of Tantric Buddhism.

Anchor roller
I have a Hunter 33.5 with in deck roller furling. There's not space to put an off the shelf anchor roller on the deck. Anyone have any suggestions???
How about something like this?

Anchor roller
That's a really interesting idea.......thanks. It's definitely got possibilities.
What did you have in mind, what is your ideal outcome, and what are you willing to do in the way of making changes?
You might find some ideas here:
My boat has a fairly narrow foredeck and roller furling...and I was able to put a bow roller in that has worked quite well for the last three seasons.
Advice on anchor roller design
I'm in the same situation: I have an Albin 7.9, with roller furling installed right at the point of the bow. There's no room underneath, and very little to either side (a little more than enough to run the chain through). I've though about fastening a wooden platform to the foredeck, installing bollards to control the movement of the chain and rode, and mounting a conventional roller, but wood rots, and there's little surface area to fasten the platform to. An alternative is to have one built out of stainless. Yet another is to mount one to one side or the other, but aft of the furler, which would mean having the anchor stick out some distance to the side - that doesn't seem very safe. I wouldn't mind seeing some other ways of dealing with this.

Are spices bad for a cat?
I've got a cat that loves spices, especially nutmeg, so much so that I have to put them in a high cabinet he can't get to. He rubs all over them, and starts purring and drooling, like when he gets into catnip, but amplified. Even a grocery bag that brings my spices home gets him excited, and will swipe at me and his brother if they come near. I know nutmeg is a hallucinogen to humans, but can a little harm cats? What about other spices?

Lots of cats have these strange addictions. I babysat a cat who would knock over Olive Oil cans, just to get into the oil.
here's what i found about cats and Nutmeg in particular
"Nutmeg. You may not realized this but high levels of nutmeg can be toxic, even fatal. The toxic principle is not well understood. Signs of toxicity include tremors, seizures, nervous system abnormalities or death."

Why don't my cats like each other anymore?
My cats used to get along really well. Then Amara had kittens four weeks ago, and now things have changed. Kallie dislikes Amara to the point that she hisses all the time and will walk across the room to slap Amara. Amara can just be sitting in the same room and Kallie will go crazy. What happened, and is there anything that I can do to help them get along again?

- Cast your vote for which answer you think is best!
The hormones a female cat has when they are pregnant, in labor, and nursing are very strong and change everything from her behavior to her scent. It's not at all surprising that Kallie was upset to see her friend going through these changes and suddenly having these kittens around, who Amara is probably fiercely protective of. She may be jealous that Amara has kittens and she doesn't or she may be annoyed by them and blame her for their being there!
Hopefully if everyone gets fixed and the kittens are adopted out things can get back to normal with hormones and strange new little cats out of the picture but they may hold grudges for a long time. If possible keep Amara and the kittens away from Kallie until the kittens are gone and Amara is fixed and then very slowly reintroduce them, starting with exchanging their scents by rubbing a clean cloth on each of them and then exchanging the cloths. Then work up to supervised visits until you feel it's safe to leave them alone.

I'd like to hear your thoughts on the Steeda mount. It came with 2 sets of bushings correct? What ones did you decide to use?
Hey everyone, I'm a pretty new member here, but I have been reading and enjoying everyone else's builds and figured I'd post my own. So far I have plastidipped my wheels, tinted the windows @ 30%, installed the Buschur Racing filter (green filter), and as of today, put in a Steeda RMM. I haven't logged everything like some of the other forum members but from now on i will attempt to take pictures and post a write up whenever I do something. Also, I have recently picked up a Gopro Hero3 black edition and I plan to make some videos in the future using the car mount.
I will be posting updates as my love affair with this awesome car continues =D
I'd like to hear your thoughts on the Steeda mount. It came with 2 sets of bushings correct? What ones did you decide to use?
Pooz, Yes the kit comes with 2 sets of bushings, the 70s are pre installed when you receive the kit. I went with the 88s and while there is definitely an increase in vibration, it is by no means unbearable. You can only really feel it when you are idling or first start up the car. When you are driving its pretty non existant unless you need to down shift. I like feeling it actually, kind of makes you feel more connected imo.
Ordered Rok Blokz mudflaps and a valentine one over the weekend. Will post a write up and pics of install when I get them =)
What is a valentine one ?

Good news! Just got home and found out my Rok Blokz got here today!
Pretty quick considering it originally said they would take about a week to get here. They seem to be quality so far, a little stiff but should protect the skirts better than nothing. They also came with a bunch of stickers, that I more than likely will not be using. And a peppermint was in the box... for whatever reason.

Is there a surface that gets more usage than a school playground or oval?
Our expert team will transform your dull asphalt or muddy oval to a fun, bright inviting play area.
New generation synthetic grass is hard wearing and long lasting, ensuring many years of enjoyment.
We are experts in converting these sad areas to beautiful synthetic grass multisport surfaces:
Design options are endless, we can mark out traditional play areas with netball, basketball, 4 squares, tennis, volleyball etc. Our skilled technicians can also create colourful designs, chess boards , hopscotch or work to your vision. Many of our surfaces are fully approved by F.I.F.A , A.F.L. and Cricket Australia.
Grassports are able to create any logo or crest in a suitable grass product for any application on a sports field or leisure area.
Safety in the school ground is paramount and if play equipment is installed we have special rubber underlay's to comply with Australian Standards for critical fall heights. Many schools have noticed an enormous rise in outdoor activity and a corresponding fall in visits to the first aid room. Many schools install a multipurpose long pile grass (filled with rubber crumb) to provide a soft area for football and soccer, with a two or 3 lane running track around the perimeter. Great for fitness.
Local communities also find usage of the fields a benefit for after hours such as Futsal, Vic Kick and Kanga Cricket.
Your Individual School Crest or Image Creation
Supply your image, choose a size, and a digitally created "tufted grass" piece will be manufactured and installed by our experienced team.
Results speak for themselves!
Hello Bernard, I'm writing to tell you how thrilled we are with our tennis court refurbishment. The standard of work is excellent and it's been a pleasure dealing with your entire team. Thank you also for the sound advice you provided during the design phase. We will get a lot of use from our combined badminton/volleyball posts. Please pass on our appreciation to the team.

Covering Kitchen Wall Tile
1 Attachment(s)
Hello. I am just finishing up my bathroom project. It had tile all over and it was a nightmare to remove all the tile. It was on there with with wire nailed to the studs with mortar/concrete?
I am not going to go through this again. I need a quick fix for the kitchen. Please see the picture. I have all new appliances coming shortly and new cabinets. I will be putting in a hardwood floor. Cabinets are going to be arlington white, which is a off white/ivory/vanilla color.
See the picture of the current kitchen (ugly)
I was thinking of covering the tile parts of the wall with this:
I will be removing the back splash tile and will be replacing that with new tile. With the paneling I am not sure about finding moulding that will be able to overlap on the tile because of the thickness. Also they had this ugly yellow tile going into two of the arch entrances into the kitchen.
To the left of the picture and behind where I took the picture is the half wall with the yellow tile. I will try to get a more recent photo so you can see exactly how it is.
Hi Ryan,
Glad to hear you're getting rid of that kitchen. Please do not install that panelling anywhere in the kitchen. Use it in your basement or garage if you must.
Although we don't know how the kitchen wall tiles were installed yet, I will bet they were just adhered to the wall. It should be completely different from the bathroom. Easiest way is the remove part of the drywall once the cabinets are gone and replace with new wallboard. In areas where that's not practical you should be able to remove the tiles using a wide putty knife with hammer. This may remove some of the surface paper, be careful not to remove too much. May need some minor patching after.
I will check this out today and see how it comes off where the backsplash is. The paneling I was only going that route because my wife like the country look and thought that would look nice with the cabinets we are getting. I will look further into this and supply a picture also.
Just a thought----It is customary to remove the old cabinets--then remove the old plaster or drywall in the back splash area----
Then upgrade the electrical and add wiring for under cabinet lighting (if desired)
Then replace the drywall----
I find having a nice fresh wall makes the future work faster and better looking and well worth the effort.
If the cuts are located properly there is little finished taping needed---Mike---

Well I started taking the tile backsplash off. Behind the cabinet above the store, the tile goes up to the ceiling/overhang.
Tile around the window left and right side were easy to come off. The walls are plaster. The tile on the right wall are not coming off easy. They are ceramic tile with the 1-1.5 inch mortar and chicken wire. The plaster is just crumbling when I still the crow bar behind the tile trying to pry it. Any suggestions/easier way to get the tile off? The layer from outside in is tile->mortar->chicken wire-> plaster wall-> studs. Usually I only saw it with the chicken wire directly to the studs.
I don't want to have to replace the plaster with drywall I am running out of time and $ with this project. Plus side is, this will all be covered with the new backsplash and cabinets. The arch ays into the kitchen are not squared they are all rounded at the top which is beyond my expertise. I will also probably run into an issue like I did with the bathroom. Removing the plater and then when I got up to the ceiling that plaster broke off so I had to replace the ceiling. I will not be doing that this time. But the tile that is still standing on the other half of the walls will be completely visible. Debating to cover them or remove them (tile).
Also there is a over hang that was covered (seen in picture above) with paneling. This over hang is to short for the cabinets I got, I know I can build it out more. I was thinking of removing this but it seems really solid. I hit it with the hammer and it dented it?? I would think its plaster but who knows with this house. If I remove the over hang am I asking for more trouble?
I can see that you don't like drywall work----but you are running out of time---it would be a lot faster to simply cut out the old plaster---tile and all---shim out he studs so the drywall matches the plaster and call it done---
Some one here might have a faster and simpler solution---by I gave up om trying to salvage the old wall coverings long ago---Mike---
Hello. I had to rest of the tile where the cabinets were removed within an hour. Came off in two big piece, plaster just needs patching. Now the walls in the kitchen is another story. The main reason to remove this tile is #1 it just ugly #2 the went in the arch ways with it... So I began in the arch was chiseling prying etc. for 2 hours. Still is intact removed about 80%. (just one side of the arch way) Started a way was getting no where so I put a hole in the wall and figured I would try prying the plaster and tile off together. It is not going anywhere. I called it a night for tonight. It seems the the walls where the backsplash was with the cabinets was defiantly mortar but the other walls that are half tile has a darker look, looks like cement and it is not coming off easily.

"The cards came printed on heavy paper and the colors were bright and fun. I ordered them for my daughter's birthday. Everyone that saw them loved them. The picture on the card made them even better. I would buy from tiny prints again."
"This invitation was perfect for our superhero themed birthday! Tiny Prints always has what I need! The paper quality is nice and thick and I love that I could customize the hair color to match my daughter's brown hair. I'm always sure to save a copy for my her memory book. Shipping came sooner than the estimated arrival! Just be sure you read the card size. I had assumed it was 5x7, but it was more like 4x6 - not that that's a problem as everything fit and looked great!"
"Beautiful card and I'm always impressed with the turn around time of Tiny Prints. So wonderful for a busy mother who is running behind on birthday planning"
"This card is perfect for my little Thomas the Train obsessed son and his third birthday party. Be sure to review your card before you order because I erased the "3" in the middle of the red dot on the train and didn't realize it until it was too late. But otherwise it is an absolutely adorable card."
"I picked this card because I thought the graphics were best for a 5 year olds party. The text spacing was limited but the customer service department was excellent at warning me of issues and correcting my mistake. I was surprised that it was so small (I had envisioned a larger card) and I would have liked to put a little text on the back. But, it'll be a fine invite for this party!"

Paul McCartney and Heather Mills divorce near end
By Paul Majendie
LONDON (Reuters) - Paul McCartney learns on Monday just how much of his Beatles fortune will go to his estranged wife in a divorce settlement that could set a legal precedent about the short-lived marriages of the super-rich.
After one of the most acrimonious divorce battles in show business history, Judge Hugh Bennett is to hand out his judgment at London's High Court but, despite much media clamoring, his final ruling could be kept confidential.
Heather Mills, 40, whose marriage to the 65-year-old McCartney lasted less than four years, sacked her lawyers and represented herself in the case against McCartney, whose fortune has been estimated at 825 million pounds ($1.6 billion).
Media estimates of what Mills might get have varied wildly from 200 million pounds down to 25 million pounds.
The judge could decide to impose a gagging clause on the warring pair.
"This is a short marriage and will set a precedent for judges," family and divorce lawyer Vanessa Lloyd Platt told Sky News on Sunday, underlining how closely the legal profession would be reviewing the decision.
She warned that the couple, whose case was heard behind closed doors with even the court windows blacked out, could face the full glare of publicity if either decides to appeal. Then the cloak of confidentiality would be lifted.
"Both sides have 21 days in which they can appeal. Then we would never hear the end of it," Lloyd Platt said. Continued...

Many things lose their excitement as they become more familiar but playing football is not one of them. Not, at least, for Matt Taylor. Coming to the end of his 10th season in the Premier League, West Ham United's reliable man feels the buzz of top-flight competition more sharply than ever.
Taylor, 32, is nearly at the end of his contract at Upton Park and is loving his renewed role in West Ham's recent run. They host Hull City on Wednesday night, sensing that two wins will probably be enough to keep them in the Premier League for next season, and three certainly will be.
This, then, is a very big game and the prospect of running out, under lights, in a full ground, with so much at stake clearly means the world to Taylor, even more now than it did first playing for Harry Redknapp's Portsmouth 10 years ago.
"When you're younger, you probably don't appreciate what you're actually doing," Taylor reflects after training at Chadwell Heath, West Ham's Essex base between Ilford and Romford. "The older you get, to be running out at Old Trafford, Chelsea or Upton Park, to be in that position as a professional footballer, you appreciate it. The older you get, you realise it's not around for ever.
"When you're younger you don't think that far ahead, because you're trying to get to the next stage of your career. The older you get, you appreciate everything you have and everything still to come."
Taylor certainly has an eye on the future, already coaching youth teams at his former club Luton Town and working on his badges this summer. But his playing days are not over yet, and he has been as important as anyone to West Ham's new year resurgence; a run of four wins and one draw which dragged them, almost implausibly, from the relegation zone and into the top half.
It all started at Stamford Bridge. On a Wednesday night in January, West Ham went there having just been beaten 9-0 by Manchester City over two legs in the League Cup and, even more damagingly, outclassed 3-1 at home by Newcastle United in the League. They needed to tighten up and so manager Sam Allardyce brought Taylor in, not at left-back but in a narrow midfield three protecting the defence.
"We went into that particular fixture believing that we could get something from the game," Taylor remembers. "There were probably a lot of people from outside the club who thought we couldn't get anything."
Allardyce had a plan and it worked perfectly. Taylor, Kevin Nolan and Mark Noble occupied Willian, Oscar and Eden Hazard far more successfully than many other midfields have this season.
"You can't go to Chelsea and try to play expansive football because they will destroy you," explains Taylor. "I don't think that's being disrespectful to us, that's being honest. So we didn't go there and play open. We all got bodies behind the ball, the shape was very good.
"The way Chelsea play is that their attacking players play slightly infield. Willian and Hazard don't play wide. Because of that we bunched up the midfield and were strong in there, and when they got it wide we defended crosses when we had to come into the box."
West Ham escaped with a clean sheet and a point, and Allardyce felt such vindication that he famously spoke in his post-match press conference of having "out-tactic- ed" Jose Mourinho. "We were resolute in defence and we defended for our lives," remembers Taylor. "We were given a game-plan by our manager and implemented it in a professional way."
Mourinho complained about "19th-century football", but two days after this interview Arsenal went to Stamford Bridge without an obvious plan to stop Chelsea and they were beaten 6-0. That stalemate was a triumph.
"It gave us that little boost," says Taylor, who is now established back in the team having hardly played in the first half of the season. "We went on a good run, we picked up good wins and we were solid." They won their next three games 2-0, and those four straight clean sheets made West Ham look like a true Allardyce side again.
"One of the things that stands out here for the gaffer is that he prepares you and gives you all the information you need for the fixture," says Taylor, "and providing you with that information is vitally important, because as players there is a tendency for it to go in one ear and out the other."
That is not the case with Taylor, who is seriously considering coaching when he has stopped playing and is receptive to seeing what works best. "As a player, you look at things that work with certain managers and you try and implement them yourself, if that was what you wanted to do."
As soon as the season is over on 12 May, Taylor and his team-mate Joe Cole will start working on their Uefa B Licences. But Taylor is already working hard, having taken Luton Town Under-15 and Under-16 teams on Thursday evenings for the last 18 months. Some of the same coaching staff are still there who taught him when he was on the Youth Training Scheme at Luton in the late 1990s. "They've been really good for me," Taylor smiles, "the club have a fantastic youth set-up."
Taylor played three seasons as a teenager for Luton in what is now League One and League Two before Portsmouth signed him, and he knows that for the next generation of players the best beginning is in competitive football. "There's no better start for young footballers than playing against other footballers where it's their livelihood at stake. That is how they pay their bills, that's how they pay their mortgage. So everything they do leading up to the game is spot-on.
"There is a space for youth football, but competitive football allowed me to have a platform to achieve what I have achieved within the game and have what I would say is a decent career."
My other life: Carp fishing
I've got three kids and I don't have a huge amount of time to do what I want to, purely and simply because life is just so busy and I'm constantly on the go. But if I did have a couple of days to spare, I really enjoy carp fishing. Last summer I went to France for five days with a couple of mates, we went to a lake called Fishabil, which is about six hours from Calais. I really enjoyed that and had a brilliant time there.

"Play Like a Champion"
The NDA Volleyball program is featured in the Green Bay Press Gazette.
Congratulations to the players and coaches! Good luck on your journey!
Coaching Philosophy
Our motto "PLAY LIKE A CHAMPION" for the volleyball coaching staff at NDA is not only about the way we approach the opportunity to work with the student athlete in preparing for competition, but is also a description of the way we, as coaches, and our teams want to be preceived off the court as well. We will compete very hard with the expectation to win, but we will be gracious when we do not.
Too often, in today's competitive environment, we can get too caught up in competitive moments and lose sight of the athletes incremental improvements day

Men's Olympic Ice Hockey Odds 2014
Defending gold-medal winner Canada, silver-medalist United States and homestanding Russia could very well wind up side-by-side at the medal ceremony in Men's Olympic Hockey. Canada is the overwhelming favorite at 2/1 odds, but there are other contenders who will challenge for the hardware. Since we are in Sochi, Russia, failing to medal at home in 2014 will be viewed as something close to a disaster for the Russians. The bigger ice surface always presents challenges for North American players and it will dictate how teams fare because that lack of speed will get exposed on the bigger ice. The teams with the faster skaters are not to be overlooked. Below is my preview of the Top 3 countries along with a sleeper pick who could steal a spot on the podium. The Olympics get started this Friday and Bovada has all your 2014 Olympic Betting Odds.
For team Russia the talent is definitely there to challenge for gold, particularly at forward. Alex Ovechkin and Evgeni Malkin are clearly two of the best in the world, and Pavel Datsyuk isn't far behind. Semyon Varlamov is the likely choice to start in goal and can be a brick wall at times. Sergei Bobrovsky. The Blue Jackets goalie has been on fire as the Olympics near. He'll likely start as Varlamov's backup, but if the Avalanche star falters, Bobrovsky seems more than ready. Illya Kovalchuck disappointed some U.S. fans when he bailed on the Devils and signed with SKA St. Petersburg in Russia's KHL. He may get an opportunity to do it again if the nations meet on the Sochi ice.
When you look at the overwhelming talent available to Canadian coach Mike Babcock, it seems the odds are good we'll hear "Oh, Canada" at the medal ceremony once again. Crosby cemented his status as a national hero with the gold-medal winning goal in Vancouver and leads the team into Sochi. But Nash, Chicago's Jonathan Toews, the Islanders' John Tavares and a host of other great forwards mean it's not all on Crosby and the Canadians can send out line after line capable of lighting up the goal. With Doughty, Keith, PK Subban and others in front of Luongo it's not going to be easy to score against the defending champs either.
Tampa Bay center Steven Stamkos recently rejoined the Lightning at practice as he continues to recover from a broken leg. Stamkos says he'll be ready to go in Sochi, but Canadian officials have the right to replace him on the roster if they don't agree. Reguardless they have the talent to win gold without him, he's just a bonus if he's good to go.
The Swedes are plagued by injuries, leaving question marks on the roster, but they are set in goal with Rangers star Henrik Lundqvist and Henrik Zetterberg leads a potentially dangerous group of forwards who could find the medal stand. Sweden has replaced an injured Detroit Red Wings forward with a healthy one. Gustav Nyquist was given a spot on the roster on Monday to replace Johan Franzen. The 24-year-old Nyquist has been a key player lately for the Red Wings and that likely helped him earn a spot for the Sochi Games. Marcus Johansson of the Washington Capitals and Patrick Hornqvist of the Nashville Predators, both of whom have more points than Nyquist this season, were also potential candidates to play for the Swedes. Franzen was ruled out to play in Russia because of a concussion.
Want to dominate the books in the 2014 Olympics with some of the best Olympic Picks Experts in the business? Then sign up right now and get Olympic Picks Free!
After taking Canada to the brink four years ago, the Americans still boast a lot of talent. Patrick Kane is always among the NHL points leaders and was clutch in last year's Stanley Cup win for the Blackhawks as well as the Vancouver Games. Ryan Miller, the MVP of the 2010 U.S. team, returns to mind the net and Ryan Suter is among the NHL's best defenders. Team USA will get a big boost if Suter's Minnesota Wild teammate Zach Parise returns from injury in time to wear the red, white and blue.
2014 Olympic Ice Hockey – Mens Gold Medal Odds:
Canada – 2/1
Russia – 9/4
Sweden – 9/2
Finland – 11/1
Czech Republic – 12/1
Switzerland – 33/1
Slovakia – 40/1
Norway – 200/1
Latvia – 400/1
Austria – 1000/1
Slovenia – 1000/1
2014 Olympic Ice Hockey
When: Wednesday, February 12, 2014
Pick: Russia – 9/4
The Bottom Line: Canada is always the favorite, but with the Russians on home ice they are, and will be, favored to win gold. They are stacked will guys the can produce goals at a rapid pace. They must finish in the top of their group to avoid playing better countries. We recommend you sign up with Bovada to receive a 10% sign up bonus heading into the 2014 Winter Olympics.

Costume Information
|Cost :
|Impulse buy. I love it though. I even cut my hair to be her! Haha.
Also because my boyfriend loves Haruhi, this was my little present to him. <3

This outfit is so epic~
You suit her, as well. Especially due to hair and eye colour :D

You're still so clearly the best Haruhi <3333

Poor Donna Troy, she's currently lost somewhere in comics limbo having yet to re-surface since DC Comics did their big New 52 reboot. Can I mention yet again what a freaking awful name that is by the way?
She was originally Wonder Girl, took on the mantle of Wonder Woman for a brief period and that's probably what doomed her. DC doesn't treat their second generation legacy heroes very well. What seems to happen is they get squeezed out by the return of the originals and their sidekick status is also lost because the newer sidekicks are retained.
From a cosplay perspective Donna Troy is something of a tough one because she has a costume that is intended to look like we are staring into space and seeing stars. Which is tough to replicate in real life. So a lot of credit should go to The-Cosplay-Scion for this interpretation. It's perhaps a little too sparkly but it's an impressive approximation of that costume.
I like the pose and expression on her face here too. Donna Troy is after all a warrior.

LAREDO, Texas (AP) — Police in Laredo, Texas, say a mother who was turned down for welfare benefits killed herself and shot her two children after a seven-hour standoff at a government social services office.
The situation unfolded Monday afternoon.
Investigator Joe Baeza says woman was upset because she had been denied benefits and took a supervisor at the office hostage. The worker was released and wasn't injured. Police were talking with the woman by phone just before midnight when she hung up and three shots rang out.
Her 10-year-old son and 12-year old daughter were hospitalized Tuesday in San Antonio.
Authorities said the woman had recently moved to Texas from Ohio.
