Looking for an evening out with friends? A great date place? A place to pick up after work? Dominion Square Tavern can meet all of those needs– and more! As soon as you walk through the door, you feel like you've been transported to a different time and place. The restaurant has many original elements that date back to its original incarnation during the Roaring 20's. If you have a minute, we encourage you to read about it HERE. Finished? Our city is so fucking cool.
The Tavern, which offers "bistro-style dishes with an accessible French Canadian palate […] is also notably infused with a British sensibility." It it ever! White uniforms, aprons, black vests– lovely!
We were a group of 5 last week and as we were celebrating a dear friend's upcoming nuptials, we weren't really being budget-conscious. Appetizers range in price from $4-$22 and mains from $15-$42. They also have an amazing cocktail list and pretty much anything else you might be looking for (of the alcoholic variety).
For appetizers, we sampled deviled eggs ($4), a Scotch egg with Swedish sauce ($13), and some salads ($6). What is a Scotch egg? A hard-boiled egg wrapped in sausage meat, coated in breadcrumbs and baked. We suspect ours may have been fried a little… either way– awesome!
For the mains, there were: pulled pork sandwiches ($18) and Bangers & Mash ($22).
Pims all around for beverages to round out the British theme.
And for dessert– sticky toffee pudding. We were like ninjas on that shit! I couldn't even get a picture before the forks were in the food.
Next time you find yourself in need of a treat, do treat yourself!

NYC Kicks Off Summer Youth Jobs Program
A rite of passage for many teens is the summer job. New York City is helping youths in the city with this milestone through employment and learning programs.
About 31,700 youths are participating in various city-sponsored summer jobs and summer learning programs, according to New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg.
"With many young people now struggling to find employment, opportunities for summer jobs are very welcome, said Mayor Bloomberg. "These programs help working families, keep kids in school, and help students do better on Regents exams and increases graduation rates. We are grateful to the more than 80 corporate and philanthropic sponsors for their support of our City's young people this summer."
Participants are chosen by lottery. They earn the minimum wage of $7.25 an hour.
The largest program is run by the city Department of Youth and Community Development, providing young people age 14 to 24 a seven-week job placement.
The city Department of Education announced two new programs called NYC Summer Quest and Career and Technical Education Summer Scholars. Schools Chancellor Dennis Walcott said the programs are designed to prevent summer learning loss.

Thirty-two teams will soon become 16 when the World Cup group phase reaches its conclusion later this week.
For 16 teams, the dream will live on into the knockout stages, but for the likes of Spain and England, only a plane home awaits.
Even teams who have already qualified are vying for an easier draw in the round of 16.
Sides already assured of an early departure home will be playing for pride - nobody wants to finish up bottom of the group.
Here is our comprehensive guide to the permutations for the final standings in the group.
Catch up on all the latest World Cup-related news in our live blog here.
Group A
A win and a draw against their two closest competitors in the group have left La Selecao all but assured of progression to the next phase.
Only a defeat against the Indomitable Lions will prevent them from making an appearance in the round of 16.
That's not going to happen, we have seen them play.
Mexico match Brazil for their record at the competition, with a win and a draw. They've scored three, had two disallowed for offside and are yet to concede.
They need to avoid defeat against the Croatians in their final group game to make sure they progress to the knockout phase.
Miguel Herrera's side can still progress if they get beat. They would however rely on Cameroon to beat Brazil by three more goals than Croatia stick past them - unlikely.
Niko Kovac will tell you that his side were robbed in the first game against Brazil.
However, three points against Cameroon have set up their game with Mexico as a winner takes all clash.
They have had an appalling showing at the World Cup. The only attacking they have been doing is against each other.
Cameroon are going home, simples.
Group B
Louis van Gaal's side have booked their slot in the round of 16 after fending off Australia demolishing World Cup holders Spain.
A winner takes all clash between themselves and Chile, with the winner avoiding Brazil.
Only Tim Cahill has breached the Chilean defence. They are two wins from two at the World Cup so far.
The South American side face Holland in the final group game, loser potentially facing the hosts.
Two defeats from two but they have ran both Holland and Chile far in the two games.
Australia threatened to upset the Dutch when they went 2-1 up but Louis van Gaal's men turned things around to send the Socceroos home.
They are out - defending World Champions are off on their summer holidays after their game against Australia.
Tika taka got hammered against Holland and then got tore a new one against Chile.
Group C
Radamel Falcao-less but still top of the group and assured of a round of 16 berth thanks to two wins in as many games.
Ivory Coast still have a chance to qualify at the summit of Group C but if Colombia avoid defeat against Japan they will progress at the top.
Ivory Coast
A win and a loss in their first two games has left the Elephants in prime position to progress.
The Greeks are going to have to do something that they haven't done at this tournament to prevent them qualifying - scoring a goal.
They were unlucky to have been beat by the Ivory Coast in the first game. You probably didn't know that, nobody who sleeps proper hours will have.
Japan need to beat Colombia, hope that either Greece marginally win or they draw. Goal difference comes into it.
Just about alive in the competition but qualification is still in their own hands.
A point in their last game against the Japanese means it is a straight knockout between the Ivory Coast and themselves - barring a landslide Japan victory against Colombia.
Group D
Costa Rica
Surprise package, coming from under the radar, call them what you will. I bet nobody would have banked on Costa Rica qualifying after two games.
Well they have. Costa Rica coasted past Uruguay and were resilient against the Italians - they have beaten two really good sides.
Won one, lost one. If they had beaten Costa Rica we might have been in a different situation and praying on the Azzurri to beat Uruguay as well.
That wasn't to be and Italy need to avoid defeat against Uruguay to guarantee themselves a place in the first knockout round.
Exactly the same record as their final group game opponents but they are a goal lighter, meaning nothing less than three points will see them through to the knockout round.
England's tormentor Luis Suarez is back among the South American's ranks and was the difference against the Three Lions.
Football is going home. Two defeats in the two Group D games means that England will be going home after their game in Costa Rica.
Roy Hodgson's men could still have a big say on who progresses at the top of the group.
If they beat Costa Rica and one of Italy or Uruguay wallop the other, they could ensure their final group game opponents go through in second.
Group E
Les Bleus are all but through. The mathematical swing that needs to take place to prevent France going through isn't worth knowing.
But we are going to tell you anyway. Ecuador need to beat the Frogs by four goals and Switzerland need to beat Honduras equally as handsomely - not an outcome you would bet on happening.
A win and a loss in their first two games and with the way that Honduras are playing, you would have thought they would make it two wins.
You would also assume the way the French are playing, Ecuador won't be a match for them and a win will seal passage for the Swiss.
Similar to the Swiss they have won one and lost own, but lost out to them in the opening group game.
They face the French and need to win to progress. The way the Frogs have been playing you wouldn't think of it happening but you never know.
Strong-arm tactics haven't won them any points, plaudits or fans. They're off home.
But if you're a fan of mathematical miracles, they can unbelievably still make it. They need to score a shed load of goals against Switzerland and hope France inflict a similar drubbing on Ecuador.
Group F
Lionel Messi, unnoticeable for 180 minutes produced two moments of quality in two games and yes- you're right, scored two goals.
His winner against Iran in the 90th minute means Argentina have booked their passage through to the knockout stage.
Their showing against Iran would not have filled the most optimistic of Nigerian of hope.
But they went on and beat Bosnia and Herzegovina meaning they dumped the Europeans out of the competition and put themselves in pole position to go through.
Seconds away from their second point and clean sheet in as many games.
Lionel Messi broke the hearts of a nation in the 90th minute. Ashkan Dejagah could have put the Persians up earlier in the game and the group would have looked a hell of a lot different.
Bosnia and Herzegovina
After the Argentina game, a lot of people thought that Bosnia and Herzegovina would beat Nigeria and sit in pole position to go through.
Not the case though. Nigeria beat the Europeans and now their game against Iran is effectively a dead rubber for them.
Group G
Joachim Low's side smashed Portugal in their opening game and with a draw against Ghana as well, the Germans sit at the summit of Group G.
If they avoid defeat against the United States they are through as group winners.
Could we have another Spain 1982 on our hands? Their former striker Jurgen Klinsmann is the USMNT coach and they could scratch each others' back to be certain of passage through to the next round.
There has been late drama in every game the United States have played. Won one, minutes away from a draw and drawn one, seconds away from victory.
Four points leaves the USMNT on the verge of qualification and if they avoid defeat against Germany they progress.
Two games, two heartbreaking moments for the side that is used to heartbreak at a World Cup finals.
Only a point from their two matches means Ghana need Germany or the USA to win and the Black Stars need to win and improve their goal difference.
A 90th minute equaliser just about kept the Iberians in the competition, when they looked a sure-fire bet to exit the tournament after two games.
Portugal are in the same scenario as Ghana, with just worst goal difference. They need to win, heavily and rely on Germany or USA doing them a favour.
Group H
The dark horses have made it out of the group - unconvincingly may I add. Six points from six suggests job well done but they have limped along to the two victories.
Avoid defeat to the South Koreans and they go through as winners. If Algeria fail to beat Russia then Belgium can't be caught at the top.
Nobody expected the North Africans to get a point in the group stages.
They weren't disgraced by Belgium and they hammered South Korea, Algeria need to avoid going down to Russia and at the same time better South Korea's result.
Despite a hell of a blunder from Igor Akinfeev in their first game against South Korea, the Russians have their destiny in their own hands.
Beat Algeria and they are through as runners-up in Group H but if South Korea pull off an unlikely victory against Belgium, Fabio Cappello's men must beat Algeria by the same margin at least.
South Korea
A disappointing showing against Algeria means that the 2002 semi-finalists could be on an early flight home.
With Belgium still to play they need to win and dramatically improve their goal difference, as well as hoping Russia beat Algeria - just not by a lot.

European Factors to Watch-Equity futures rise
(ADVISORY- Reuters plans to replace intra-day European and UK stock market reports with a Live Markets blog on Eikon - see cpurl://apps.cp./cms/?pageId=livemarkets for site in development. See the bottom of the report)
LONDON, June 15 (Reuters) - European equity futures on Wednesday, marking a slight stabilisation after five previous sessions of losses that were caused by nervousness before next week's vote in Britain on its European Union membership.
Futures on the Euro STOXX 50, Germany's DAX, France's CAC and Britain's FTSE were all up between 0.4-0.9 percent.
The pan-European FTSEurofirst 300 index fell 1.9 percent on Tuesday to 1.260,14 points, its lowest closing level since Feb. 24.
Uncertainty surrounding Britain's June 23 vote on whether or not to stay in the European Union, dubbed as 'Brexit', is likely to feature among the reasons as to why the U.S Federal Reserve is expected to keep interest rates unchanged on Wednesday.
Those concerns have driven investors over to safe-haven assets such as the German bund in recent sessions.

Amazon's business model is deceptively simple: Make online shopping so easy and convenient that customers won't think twice. It can almost be summed up by the button on every page: "Buy now with one click."
Why has Amazon been so successful? Much of it has to do with Jeff Bezos, the CEO and founder, whose unique combination of character traits and business strategy have driven Amazon to the top of the online retail world.
Richard Brandt charts Bezos's rise from computer nerd to world- changing entrepreneur. His success can be credited to his forward-looking insights and ruthless business sense. Brandt explains:
Why Bezos decided to allow negative product reviews, correctly guessing that the earned trust would outweigh possible lost sales.
Why Amazon zealously guards some patents yet freely shares others.
Why Bezos called becoming profitable the "dumbest" thing they could do in 1997.
How Amazon.com became one of the only dotcoms to survive the bust of the early 2000s.
Where the company is headed next.
Through interviews with Amazon employees, competitors, and observers, Brandt has deciphered how Bezos makes decisions. The story of Amazon's ongoing evolution is a case study in how to reinvent an entire industry, and one that anyone in business today ignores at their peril.

Lauren Snouffer and John Holiday Featured in Ars Lyrica Houston's A VIENNESE NEW YEAR, 12/31
Ms. Snouffer was recently seen as Phénice and La Gloire in Armide with Mercury Baroque in Houston and Paris, Clorinda in Monteverdi's Il combattimento di Tancredi e Clorinda with Juilliard415, and soprano soloist in Kurtág's Messages of the Late R. V. Troussova with AXIOM.
Ms. Snouffer's other roles include Ruth Baldwin in John Musto's Later the Same Evening, Minnie in Annie Get Your Gun, Florestine in John Corigliano's The Ghosts of Versailles, the Dew Fairy in Hansel and Gretel, and Princess (#1) in Conrad Susa's Transformations.
Ms. Snouffer spent the summer of 2012 covering the role of Agnes in George Benjamin's Written On Skin with the Aix-en-Provence Festival and will revisit the piece in 2013 with Maggio Musicale in Florence; the Royal Opera, Covent Garden; and the Vienna Festival. She completed undergraduate studies at Rice University, where she sang Zerlina in Don Giovanni, and earned her master's degree at Juilliard. Future engagements include her Lyric Opera of Chicago debut in 2014.
In repertoire encompassing George Frideric Handel's 'Giulio Cesare in Egitto' to Jonathan Dove's 'Flight' and beyond, countertenor John Holiday's expressive and richly beautiful voice has made him an increasingly sought after artist, possessing a "vocal instrument that threatens to equal the name artists in his range." (Herald Times)
In the 2012 – 2013 season, Mr. Holiday makes his Carnegie Hall debut as soloist in Bernstein's 'Chichester Psalms' with the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra under Robert Spano, as well as in performances for audiences in Atlanta. He will also join the roster of the Metropolitan Opera to cover Nireno in 'Giulio Cesare' under Harry Bicket in David McVicar's new production. Mr. Holiday made his company debut with Portland Opera in Phillip Glass's 'Galileo Galilei' in the 2011 – 2012 season and will reprise his roles in the same work at the Cincinnati Opera in the summer of 2013. He was soloist in Handel's Messiah with the Cincinnati Chamber Orchestra and performed with the Chorus of Westerly (Rhode Island) in their concert of Purcell's Come, Ye Sons of Art. He was also seen in a benefit concert at Dallas Opera having recently been the first place winner of the Dallas Opera Guild Vocal Competition.
Recently, Mr. Holiday was an apprentice artist at Santa Fe Opera where he covered the role of Corrado in Peter Sellars's production of Vivaldi's 'Griselda'. Additionally, he was seen as Tolomeo in 'Giulio Cesare in Egitto' at the College Conservatory of Music in Cincinnati, soloist with Bourbon Baroque in Louisville, and soloist in Handel's 'Messiah'. A career highlight includes an invitation by Pope John Paul II to sing as soloist for High Mass at St. Peter's Basilica and the Sistine Chapel in 2002.
In addition to the Dallas Opera Guild Vocal Competition, Mr. Holliday recently received a first prize from the Sullivan Foundation for 2012 and was also awarded fifth place in the Palm Beach Opera Competition in 2011. In 2007, he was the first place winner in his district of the Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions. From 2004 to 2006, Mr. Holiday was a first place winner of the TEXOMA region of the National Association of Teachers of Singing.
In addition to the classical repertoire, Mr. Holiday excels in jazz music having opened for Grammy award winner Jason Mraz in concert. He is a graduate of the Meadows School of the Arts at Southern Methodist University, where he earned his Bachelor of Music in voice performance and received his Master of Music degree from the University of Cincinnati-College Conservatory of Music.
Ars Lyrica Houston: A Viennese New Year, is slated for Tuesday, December 31, 2012 at 9:00 p.m. The annual gala will be held afterward at 10:30 p.m. in Zilkha Hall at the Hobby Center for the Performing Arts, 800 Bagby St., Houston, Texas. For subscriptions and single tickets, call 713-315-2525 or visit Arslyricahouston.org. For more about Ars Lyrica, find them on Facebook and Twitter.

My Perfect Color Palate
I love these colors. I'm so drawn to them. They make me happy. 90% of the things I make for Hello Cupcake include the colors teal, lime green and yellow.
So it's safe to say….I want to include them in our wedding colors!
I still don't have a plan of how I will be using each of these colors, but they'll be there! What do you think?

Spider-Man celebrates Obama as "nerd-in-chief"
By Claudia Parsons and Karina Huber
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Barack Obama will be "nerd-in-chief" when he takes office as U.S. president this month, according to Marvel Comics, which is putting him on the cover of its next "Spider-Man" comic.
The special edition of the weekly Spider-Man comic features a six-page story about the superhero saving the day when an imposter tries to take Obama's place as president. It is due to hit newsstands next Wednesday.
Marvel editor in chief Joe Quesada said the idea for the "Spidey meets the President!" edition came from a statement from Obama's campaign listing 10 little known facts about the Democrat who will be America's first black president.
"Right at the top of that list was he collected Spider-Man comics," Quesada told Reuters in an interview on Thursday.
"I was inundated with tons of fan mail saying 'Have you read this?'" Quesada said. "I was just floored, absolutely floored, to find out that the future commander-in-chief was actually going to be the future nerd-in-chief."
Excitement about Obama's election has already fueled a boom in memorabilia, from posters to front pages of November 5 newspapers announcing his victory. The Spider-Man edition, likely to become an instant collectors' item, features Obama on the cover, smiling and giving a thumbs-up.
Spidey hangs upside down behind him whispering in his ear: "Hey, if you get to be on my cover, can I be on the dollar bill?"
The story is set on January 20 in Washington, where Spidey's alter ego, Peter Parker, is on assignment as a photographer covering Inauguration Day. Continued...


text: Got my SRP '02 WRX yesterday, as part as a little change of pace in life, new city, new school, definitely gotta get a new car.I'll be heading for the mountains of NC come august and will start hunting out a personal version of pikes peak. Had to sell my first car, an '01 Audi A4 2.8 V6 quattro because she was getting tired and repair expenses were piling up, kept stock for my whole ownership (read: repair bills on german cars ). My new Subaru came couple extras, boost guage (idk if this is stick or not) , Fujita CAI ( previous owner couldn't find the stock one, anyone WTT?), HKS 3" exhaust with a giant 4.5 tip (luckily this isn't installed) and 2 10" pioneers and an 800 watt amp. I have done a fair amount of research and I know I need a new UP, like yesterday, honestly I'm inclined to hunt a STI one out so I can keep it close to stock until I can afford some tuning. When I move I will have a roughly 1,000 sq ft basement/garage and will be living with a very mechanically inclined friend with a MIG welder, I can't wait to see what I can do with this baby and fair amount of creativity, I have dreams of skidplates and pushbars and maybe a set of Forester struts to deal with the curbs and snow. Included are the first pictures of the new Subaru and one picture of the old girl on her last day with me.

wall bowed while finishing up trim
hi, this is my first post, and my husband is doing the work. We had our basement walls all torn down and drywalled (took two times, cause the first guy we hired was a nut and did everything wrong so we had to do a tear down and hire another guy, my husband is doing the finishing) anyways there are a few spots where the walls are bowed and my hubby put on the trim and they were forgivable, we could caulk them, but where the 5 stairs are going into the basement, the last bit of trim for the basement, the walls are very bowed and he put on the trim, and it looks very wonky, and not something he can live with, any suggestions??? i will post a few pictures, thanks very much!!!

here is a picture
Doesn't look to me like the drywall is really the problem. The studs behind the drywall aren't right.
There are people here with 100x more knowledge then me, but I'm not sure of any way to correct this problem short of (at least) shimming the studs and getting an even surface for the drywall.
yeah, this area by the stairs wasn't redone, thats how it was when we bought the house in march, its just very frustrating when we spent the time and money on redoing the basement and trying to finish up and find the walls as bowed as they are, hopefully someone can help!!
Looks to me like you may need to pull off the base and 'skim coat' the wall.
Use progressively longer trowels to add mud to the 'hollow'. No telling how many coats you might need.
You may need to source out a plaster's 'darby' to reach across 2 or 3 stud spaces.
If it were me I'd either leave it alone or fix it with "skim coats." The stairs will make the effort a lot more challenging. Since you will be using a lot of mud: get the sandable "setting type" joint compound. It is a powder and a bit harder to mix than the stuff in 5 gal buckets, but it sets up fast which will be a huge advantage when building a fairly thick coat.

March 23, 2011
Although Tennessee's coaches have done everything possible to prepare for spring practice, spotty weather forced the Vols to adjust their gameplan on the second day of UT's 2011 spring session Wednesday.
"We had a lot of adversity today," head coach Derek Dooley said. "We went outside, inside, outside and back inside so it was sudden change, but it was a good lesson. We had a little rain and got some wet ball work. It was a good beginning to start conditioning the mind when things don't go as planned."
After defining UT's first practice of the spring Tuesday as `smooth' and `crisp', Dooley was pleased with how his team handled the adjustments on day two.
"They didn't take a step back but a lot of the change disrupts routine," Dooley said. "I mean it when I said it. It's good when things get a little disrupted because you have to get it back quick. You can't let the momentum shift on you. Overall, each day is going to get a little harder because the multiples get bigger and bigger. The more stuff you put in on offense and defense and the more variables there are, the more you're thinking and the execution starts breaking down."
The Vols, who spent the first two days of this week in helmets and shorts, will strap up pads Thursday.
"I hope it's a physical practice," Dooley said. "I told them today that I've never seen one team win a conference championship that wasn't physical. It doesn't happen. They need to go to bed tonight with a physical mindset tomorrow. It's going to be day one of turning us into a physical football team."
Quarterback Tyler Bray amassed freshman records of 1,849 passing yards and 18 touchdowns in 2010, but it remains to be seen what his sophomore year will bring after UT's three leading receivers from a year ago, all seniors, are gone.
Despite the youth of Bray and his young core of receivers, no one is taking it easy on them.
"We're putting everything on him and those guys are doing really well right now," Dooley said. "Each day, there's more and more and more. We're not really limiting Tyler (Bray), Da'Rick (Rogers), Matt (Milton), Justin (Hunter) or any of those guys this spring. This spring is going to be for really trying to put as we can on them and see how they respond to it."
Thus far, they've responded to Dooley's liking.
"I've never seen a good team and good players become champions and work the minimum," Dooley said. "It requires a tremendous investment when they leave this building. A lot of people don't like to hear that. Those guys have taken over the role of knowing it's their passing game. When you take that kind of ownership, it puts pressure on you to go out there and perform and it puts pressure on you to prepare. I think they've been handling it real well but we'll see. Time will tell."
Defensive back Prentiss Waggner set a school record by returning three interceptions for touchdowns in a single season and earned Second Team All-SEC honors from the AP in 2010. But he isn't taking anything for granted.
"Every year I prepare like I'm competing for a job," Waggner said. "Last year was only my first year playing. Every year, I just have to take with a chip on my shoulder. All of us in the meeting room are just pushing each other and making each other better."
-Defensive back Marsalis Teague, who missed two games last season due to turf toe, is still rehabbing from that injury but said Wednesday that it's much better.
-Center James Stone, who snapped with his left hand last season, is currently in the process of switching to a right-handed snap. Stone has been inconsistent early on while adjusting to making calls but that was expected, according to Dooley.
-Vols fans can order 2011 season tickets by visiting uttix.com or calling (865) 656-1200. UT opens the 2011 season vs. Montana at Neyland Stadium on Sept. 3.

Hi, there, this is Robert. I am a fiction writer and write for teleread.org and the idiotprogrammer weblog. I encourage readers to join this group. The price of admission is pretty low: share a favorite book..and if you can think of one, a literary quote!
Ok, this sounds easy. Now I'm having trouble thinking of something to say:
My favorite book/book is easy: Restless Nights and Siren: A Selection by Dino Buzzati . They are delightful comic fantasy short stories. Also, they are hard to find. The good news is that Catastrophe (another story collection) by Buzzati is coming out very soon.
Hello1 Just joined up...
One of the better books I read this year was Michael Chabon's The Yiddish Policeman's Union.
Hope to see some more activity in the group!

Im not trying discredit Keith or anything (as he has more knowledege than I could ever hope to even read) but I use the Cobb AP with my 20G setup and have used it since stage 1. And if you look at Cobbs cars and others, in the hands of the right person it can be used to pretty high levels also.
But like mentioned above its about personal choice and how much you want to spend.
That's twice you have pointed out something I should have added....LOL
I guess I should have stated that a little better than I did. With the AP you can get custom tunes done as you mod the car more. From the sounds of it you aren't looking for 11,000,000,000hp so as it comes out of the box should be good for you.
Lol, its alrite. No harm no foul. One of these days I will be as knowledgeable and remember as much as you have forgot. At least you are far to the AP and dont totally bash on it or discredit it. I think the OP just needs to really read about both and see which they are more comfortable with. Either way, both are great for the car, and for the driver enjoyment.
id really like something i dont need a computer for because i dont have internet at my house. i only get on it at work and i dont think theyd like me downloading to much on this computer.. does the cobb ap have all of the off the shelf tunes on it when you buy it.. the website listed stock stage 1 adn 1+ also stage 2 and 2+. it looked like the stage 2+ would be what im looking for it says aftermarket intake and turbo back exhaust.. any other programmers a good plug and play?
Ok, is it a K&N typhoon intake or K&N drop in filter? Two very different things. The latter is fine with any OTS map. A K&N typhoon intake will require a protune. Why? You might ask. Because they only support AEMs intake and the Cobb SF intake.
COBB Tuning . Subaru WRX AccessPORT . Map Listing
loaded/downloaded to my computer or car? and is opensource a plug and play? cobb can be with off the shelf tunes right?
Open source isn't plug and play easy. It takes some more leg work, but it doesn't mean that it sucks.

Cell Phone Road Rage Incident Gone Viral [VIDEO]
Road rage is seriously not cool. But I have to admit, I'm kind of on this guy's side.
This dashcam video captures a fender bender apparently caused by a distracted driver attempting a left turn across busy traffic. The victimized motorist stomps out of his car, and you fear he's about to beat the other driver to a bloody pulp. Instead he is more concerned with smashing the stupid cellphone that maybe caused the accident. See for yourself.

Reviews for Cranberry Sauce
"This is a great basic recipe. I've followed it exactly with excellent and reliable results, and I've used it a starting point for my own versions (using different juices)."
"So easy and so good, why would anyone eat cranberry sauce out of a can?"
"I never really liked cranberry sauce until I tried this recipe from scratch... It has the perfect amount of sweetness."
"I have always hated cranberry sauce from a can. It tastes good but bad texture and looks rather unappealing. This recipe was so fast, easy, and inexpensive I can't imagine why anyone would ever buy canned cranberry sauce again. My entire family loved this, it was so good! It had a great texture with some cranberries still slightly intact, overall delicious!"
"So simple to make and very tasty. There is a hint of raspberry and it's not too sweet like so many store bought varieties."
"Added a touch of cinnamon and used orange juice instead of cranberry juice (we ran out)--delicious and easy!"
"This was quick, easy, and delicious!! Got rave reviews at Thanksgiving, but would would be great with chicken as well. Will definitely make again!!!"
"I made this recipe and took it to our family Thanksgiving celebration. Everyone liked it but my 92 year old grandma thought it was too sweet. Maybe she likes the cranberries a little more tart. I thought they were a perfect blend. It did not coagulate like I thought it would, but here is what I did with the leftovers. 1. We had breakfast for supper tonight. I made waffles and placed the cranberry sauce on the waffles with some home made cinnamon whipped cream. 2. I made kolache's (my other grandmother's no fail recipe!) I used the cranberry sauce for the filling. YUMMO! I was able to place one berry and some of the sauce in each kolache. I can't wait for my dad to try them tomorrow. Maybe not the same as Grandmas, but the dough definately brings her back to me! I will make this recipe many times now that I have found my favorite."
"I had to make cranberry sauce for my 4yr olds class party. I doubled this and it came out great! Truly simple and delicious!"
"easy to make and delicious! SO much better than canned cranberry sauce. I had 2 requests for the recipe."

Rust, clear through front fender.
As I am going over my new (to me) 2002 Wrangler, I started picking at the rust bubbles that formed on the passenger fender...well,
I ended up picking away a good three inches of rust, clear through. Is this worth repairing, or is a new fender easier to paint and throw on?
Also, how common is rust on the body panels? I do live in New England, but, I just wanted to know.
I think it would just be way easier to replace the whole thing. Fenders are easily available. I got alot of my parts from ebay dirt cheap.
Rust like that is not uncommon when Jeeps arent cared for in states that use salt...more important however is what your frame looks like....I would replace the whole fender and get that cancer totally out of there, but I would also throughly inspect your frame, if there is body rust there may well be bad frame rust as well.
Sorry to hear that...post up pics on here so we can look at it and give recommendations....also inspect the rest ( of the frame) with a hammer and a screw driver for soft spots.
Did you buy from a dealer?
And as the spot on the frame...here she is.
I checked and the rest of the underside looks pretty good.
That doesnt look good...it is a common place to have a problem however. I can almost guarentee you that you have problems elsewhere. You basically have a few options. Since you purchased this for just over $2000 you arent in bad shape...you can replace the frame, or part it out. Some guys will tell you just to fix it and I guess you may be able to however it wont last long until other problem areas crop up. If it was me, I'd part it out and pocket the extra money or put it towards another cleaner Jeep.
Sorry I wasnt trying to be harsh its just when I see rust like this on one spot of the frame other spots are usually looming even if not visable right away.
If you want to work with the Jeep then you have two options. Have the frame hole fixed, get a new fender. Clean off the frame( wire brush etc) and por-15 it on the outside, then eastwood internal frame coat it in the inside. This should yield you a decent amount of time before having to do any other work to the Jeep. The other option you have is to replace the frame. You really arent in a bad spot because you didnt pay that much...If I was looking at these two options and wanted a few years out of the Jeep I would go with option 1, its under $500 to fix (mostly man hours).
Good Luck!!!
I should also add...you will want to make sure that this gets washed often in the winter...this is why this problem happend ...harsh winters lots of salt and people dont wash there cars because they know it will get dirty right away...take it through a car wash reguarly just make sure they spray the underbody.
Also...pull your carpet up and take a look at what the floor pans look like, especially in the driver and passenger side front...odds are surface rust or rot is starting there and will be easy to stop and take care of with a little sanding and primer/bed coating.
Justin, thanks for the advice. I pulled the carpet the other night and found a little rust starting; surface rust really. I pulled the plug and took a wire brush to her, and she's solid. My plan is to wash, prep with Marine Clean, POR-15, paint with bed liner, then buy a set of good quality (deep) mats that form fit the foot wells.
Good call....that doesnt look bad at all....I have been meaning to bedline mine for a month or two now...have the interior stripped out with just deep rubber mats in the front and its not a bad way to go...on the plus side no moisture will build up without the carpet so you wont have to worry about rust again.
It is also nice for when a 5 gallon bottle of water falls over and breaks while you are driving... it goes right out the drain plugs...happened to me this morning:D
your rusty frame isnt too bad. in fact, your frame looks pretty decent. rust in this area is normal and isnt the slightest indicative of issues anywhere else.
my control arm was completely rusted off the frame when I finally got mine fixed.
there are 3 ways to fix it.
find another frame and replace the bad section of your frame with it. this is the best option, and most difficult. good like finding a good frame.
the option I took was to have 4 steel plates cut and welded to the existing frame, one on the inside and one on the outside. this is a very good option. it allows to steel to be welded not only on the edges, but along the bottom of the frame increasing its strength.
the last option works ok. have a c-channel fabricated up and slides over the frame. this option works, but because you will only be able to weld the ends its not as strong as the others. its not good for hardcore offroading.
these guys make the c-channel: This website is currently unavailable.
but like I said, your rust isnt bad, you have a couple of years to think about it.
Hey! What did you do about the first of these photos? My Jeep TJ has the exact same thing going on. Taking it to someone in the next couple days to get something done for my inspection but would be interested in solutions from other people.
I am on the East Coast of Canada so we have a lot of salt on the roads in the winter and in the air year round! :doh:
I had (past tense) the same issue, when I picked up my jeep last summer, I thought my fender was simply surface rust. I've repaired and repainted on previous vehicles so it wasnt an issue for me. But upon closer inspection this winter (as repairing was gonna be a spring time event) I had a closer look and I could almost push my finger thru without effort. So unfortunately this required welding patchs which I don't have the right tools to do or location.
I talked to my local body man who has worked on a previous truck, quoted me 400$ to weld in patches, repaint/clearcoat both fenders. I did the math, two new shipped fenders would run me with shipping 800$ to my location as I live in a remote area. So I got my appointment, and here are the results:
Ground down my welds. Then used aluminized body filler (doesn't absorb water) to get my finished corner radius, and fill in any low spots.
Sand... prime... repeat!
Masked off the entire fender, then used a can of custom factory color from Napa, followed by a can of clear coat. The color isn't perfect, but it's close enough for me.
Over all she came out pretty good. I can see one small area where the fender flare attaches, that has a little dip to it, but over all I'm happy with how it turned out.
Great job. I really like the way it turned out. My 97 had such bad rust on the two fenders I just replaced them with a set I bought painted off of eBay. But I did a ton of other rust repair on the body and found it to be very rewarding. Yours is awesome, no one will ever notice the color difference if you don't point it out to them.
Nice job fixing it. Mine was so much worse I had to replace both fenders. Your frame is bad in the same spot mine was. I bought the pre fabbed safe-t-cap section from morris 4x4 center for $150 and took about 2.5 hours to install. Gad you didnt part it out. I know a few people that parted jeeps and you end up with about $2000 cash and a bunch of parts no one wants. Not to mention the job it is to try to rip one all apart. Nice job!!
The only thing I'm peeved about the job the body man did was the color isn't quite perfect match to the faded paint everywhere else(tho he went by the color code so its not really his fault) and a paint blister showed up 7 days after the job was done on the passenger side fender. In the right light its quite noticeable but the guy acknowledged the fact and will try to fix it right once his regular work load diminishes in a few months.
Both jobs look awesome! :thumb:
I took my Jeep to someone today who quoted me about $400. Also can't seem to get body parts shipped to me without some serious cash. Taking it for a second opinion somewhere tomorrow. If I didn't need it done in time for my inspection (up at the end of the month) I might try and do a bit myself although I haven't got any of the tools I'd like to learn to do some stuff myself!
My grandmother did a basic mechanics course when her kids were all in high school, so I figure with a bit of patience I should be able to learn a little too! :)
Look for a Certifit location close to you. I had a quote for fenders, in stock for pick up, for 75.00 each.
Pretty simple nuts and bolts replacement, and paint you can try yourself.
But awesome job on redoing yours to the OP
Just did this to my TJ this job is a biiiiiiitttttttccccccccchhhhhhhhhhh! Took me all week between work and school

x2 on the good job, though I would have used as an excuse to get non-factory fenders, like the metalcloaks.
I needed the welding practice.http://www.usa-nfl-houstontexans.info/28.jpg
difference if you don't point it out to them.http://www.usa-nfl-houstontexans.info/28.jpg
Here is a better picture with everything mounted back on correctly.
You can see where the paint is a shade off.

A Prairie Home Companion with Garrison Keillor
Santa Barbara Bowl
Santa Barbara, CA«archive page
Guy Noir
Listen (MP3)
Listen (RealAudio)
TR: A dark night in a city that knows how to keep its secrets, but on the 12th floor of the
Acme Building, one man is still trying to find the answers to life's persistent questions… Guy Noir, Private Eye.
GK: It was June and I was in California, Santa Barbara, where Los Angelenos go if they win the lottery, and I was called in by a man named Cappaletti----
FN: My family owns a very beautiful seaside estate in Santa Barbara, Mr. Noir, and this family of ignorant redneck trailer trash---- these savages ---- have moved in next door to us, and---- we need your help.
GK: I try not to get involved in disputes between neighbors ---- they make a Supreme Court confirmation look like a Sunday School picnic ---- but ----- how could I turn down a trip to Santa Barbara? (ROMANTIC MANDOLIN PULSATIONS) I'd met a girl in Santa Barbara once. She was riding down the beach (HORSE HOOVES ON SAND) on a Golden Palomino, riding into the surf (SURF, GULLS) and singing-----
(SS SINGS: Love your magic spell is everywhere,
Love your fragrance fills the evening air
GK: And on the memory of that song, (STING) I flew into Santa Barbara on Zodiac Airline----
TR (DOPER, INTERCOM): Hi. My name is Jeff and I'll be your pilot. Thank you for flying Zodiac…..where our aim is to change your view of time and space. As you may have noticed, we are in a circular holding pattern over the coast for the simple reason that the 7th chakra of this aircraft needs re-alignment and there is a really really strong energy field at this particular polarity and so we are circling and drawing power from it and then we be landing……. (STING, BRIDGE)
GK: The Capalettis lived in an enormous castle on a cliff behind a high wall and a gate where door-to-door salesmen were buzzing their intercom-----
TR: Hi. Got some accessories for your Jaguar
SS: How about some heirloom tomatoes?
FN: Hey hey hey. Need your pool cleaned?
GK And next door, in a similar castle, lived the Montagues, and you could tell from the barbed wire and the guard dogs (SFX) that there was a dispute. Both houses were built into the cliff and to somebody from the flatlands, the houses didn't look safe. There were boards nailed to the slope to keep it from sliding. And each house had an enormous helium balloon attached to the roof for additional support.
GK: I went into town and I discovered that the Montagues had made their money as producers of Scottish hip-hop music. (HIP HOP BASS, THEN BAGPIPES), and every morning Mr. Montague went down to his wine cellars in the cave and tasted his wine----
TR (SCOT): Aye, laddie, aye wi' nae speak wha' I dinnae ken, and many a mickle maks a muckle and a wee doch'n dorris and hoo mu' wood can a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood, hey? And this is not a bad wine for a Scotsman, nae? I dinna think so.
GK: His winery was called Recuerdos de la Montecito and the Cappaletti family had a winery and theirs was called La bellezza del mattino di primavera, although they had made their money with a morning TV show called "Shame & Disgrace"----
FN (SLIMY): Today we're going to be talking with women whose families do not sit down to dinner, they stand at the kitchen counter and eat out of take-out containers, and also they're going to show us their cellulite. Coming up later……(STING) -----
GK: Two families who'd earned hundreds of millions of dollars, appealing to base instincts, and now lived in neighboring castles on a cliff in Santa Barbara, and made wine, and one day the Montagues' castle slipped a little bit (GROANING OF HOUSE, SHIFTING. SCOTTISH ALARM) and they attached a chain to it (WORKMEN SHOUTS, BIG ENGINE) and towed it back about 15 inches (ROAR OF CRANE) and the Montagues accused the Cappalettis' peacock of pecking at the cantilevered columns beneath it (BIRD CRY) and the Montagues retaliated by playing Led Zeppelin (SFX) and the Cappalettis fought back with a laughing hyena (SFX) and the Montagues started drag-racing in their driveway (MOTOR ROAR, SQUEAL OF TIRES) and the Cappalettis bought a herd of bison (SFX) and meanwhile the Amtrak train from L.A. (SFX) was going by every day (TRAIN PASSING, CROSSING, DOPPLER) and that loosened the cliff a little and each day (SLIGHT CREAKING) the two great houses slid a few inches and bulldozers had to be brought in (SFX) and new helium balloons were tied to the roofs (BALLOON RIGGING) and finally the two castles had to be filled with helium themselves which meant that the Montagues and Cappalettis talked funny----
TR (HIGH VOICE): I'll stop it if he does.
FN (HIGH VOICE): The moment he stops, I will stop too.
TR (HIGH VOICE): As soon as he stops and apologizes, I'll forgive him.
FN (HIGH VOICE): I want an apology and I want him to pay my expenses.
GK: And they got so engrossed in their feud, it took them months to realize that their children were missing.
TR (HIGH VOICE): My Ronnie. He's run away.
FN (HIGH VOICE): Where's Julie?
GK: It happens so often that children of feuding families fall in love. Someone you disapprove of ---- your kid is going to be attracted to. I found Ronnie and Julie down in the wine caves. They had bonded.
SS (TEEN): It's ridiculous. I'm ashamed of them.
TR (TEEN): It's not your fault.
SS (TEEN): I just don't want anybody to think that I'm like that, just because I'm their daughter.
TR (TEEN): I don't. Think you're like that.
SS (TEEN): You don't?
TR (TEEN): I don't.
SS (TEEN): Honest?
TR (TEEN): Honest.
SS (TEEN): They're so full of anger.
TR (TEEN): I know.
SS (TEEN): I don't think you're like your parents either.
TR (TEEN): Good. Because I'm not.
SS (TEEN): Maybe we were adopted.
TR (TEEN): Maybe.
SS (TEEN): They're full of anger and we're full of love.
TR (TEEN): Right.
SS (TEEN): Oh Ronnie.
TR (TEEN): Oh Julie. Marry me.
SS (TEEN): Sure. Why not? Wheeeee. But what about our parents? They'll have a fit.
TR (TEEN): We'll have to leave home and go somewhere where our parents will never think to look for us.
SS (TEEN): Minnesota.
TR (TEEN): Perfect. (BRIDGE)
GK: They were in the underground cavern, and somehow they raised the temperature down there to the point where the barrels started bursting their corks (SERIES OF EXPLOSIONS, WINE FLOWING) and the cave was knee-high in Chardonnay and the peacocks got into it (PEACOCK INTOX) and the bison (DRUNKEN BUFFALO) and they stampeded (SFX) and the ground shook and (CREAKING) suddenly two enormous castles became a reef. (LANDSLIDE)
And there was nothing to be done. Ronnie and Julie had taken off in an old pickup truck (SFX) and the Montagues and the Cappalettis were left to ponder a bitter lesson: those whom you cannot tolerate may be the ones who will marry your children. (STING, BRIDGE)
SS (DORIS): Hi there.
GK: Who're you?
I'm a woman. W-o-m-a-n. Let me tell ya again.
I'm a woman...
GK: What can I do for you?
SS (DORIS): I don't know. Surprise me.
GK: Why are you standing with your arm around me?
SS (DORIS): Because my parents were always afraid I'd take up with an older man. The May-December romance. They hated the idea. They made me promise to stay away from older men. And now I am older. And I find you irresistible. You big hunka burning love you. Kiss me, fool.
GK: I don't think so.
SS (DORIS): I see thinning hair and a sagging chest and a pair of love handles, I get all excited.
GK: Gotta run. Sorry. (RUNNING FOOTSTEPS) I headed for town and I could see the train was coming (WHISTLE) and I ran for the crossing and it's headlight was waving in the air and I could see the crossing arm start to come down and I put on a burst of speed and I made it---- (CROSSING BELLS) just as it went by. (TRAIN PASSING)
SS: A dark night in a city that knows how to keep its secrets but one man is still trying to find the answers to life's persistent questions…..Guy Noir, Private Eye.

What products you you used to clean/condition your leather? I would like to fine something that doesn't leave a shine especially for the dash.
I have used Lexol products for years.
Last year traded in a 2006 Acura RL and a 2004 Toyota Landcruiser with 95,000 and 150,000 miles respectively. The Landcruiser especially endured small kids and 3 dogs for the entire time it served us. Not a crack in the leather.
For the dash I used Meguiar's Interior Detailer. No gloss.
I have been using Zaino's Z-10 Leather in a Bottle for years on my cars with great success. It keeps the leather soft and protects it while leaving a nice leather aroma. :cool2:
If you dont want to mail order stuff thats 3x more expensive then just pick up Lexol leather cleaner and the conditioner as well. You'll spend about 5.00 on each bottle and they'll last at least a year. It's good stuff, if you follow the directions you'll notice a cleaner/softer seat within minutes.
Does the Lexol leave a shine? I want to avoid that for the leather dash.
No, there isn't that dreaded silicone wet shine.
The Lexol stuff gives off a matte, very very light shine. Some would say it's too light and doesn't shine at all but that's how I prefer my interior to look......8 years old, no shine, no cracks, no splits, still soft etc.
My cars are cleaner then anything out there haha.
Ditto that!Quote:

I particularly like that you put it on (sometimes use my hands to apply it directly) and it gets absorbed without needing any buffing. The post application aroma is just like when your leather seats were brand new. :cool2:
Thank you for the recommendations!
How often do you recommend treating the leather items?
Can you use it on the steering wheel cover? Of course this is a moot point because i already did it.
I forgot to add this earlier, the top dash pad is leather (not the vent grill) isn't it?
I found Griots Leather care the best, does not make slippery and smells great while cleaning and adding back

Angel Financing for Entrepreneurs will give you the information you need to understand how angel investors think, as well as how to identify investor expectations, understand the investment analysis process, and prepare for post-investment requirements. Written by Susan Preston, an experienced angel investor, worldwide speaker and consultant on angel financing, and former Kauffman Foundation Entrepreneur-in-Residence, this hands-on resource, explains the factors that determine how private equity investors spend their money and what they expect from entrepreneurs. For example: Most venture capitalists do not invest in seed or start-up financing rounds Investors typically require seasoned management, with successful start-up experience Investors are looking for entrepreneurs with passion for their ideas and the willingness to take and apply sound advice Business plans must be well-written with detailed financial projections that extend 3–5 years Investors are looking for a clear path
Fool's Gold?: The Truth Behind Angel Investing in America (Financial Management Association Survey and Synthesis Series)
The stereotype of the "angel investor" is a retired wealthy entrepreneur who sees potential, asks tough questions, takes a large stake, and in a few years makes a massive return in an IPO. This outsider fills the gap between the venture capitalist and the professional investor, swooping in with cash and expertise to bring dreams to fruition.
Unfortunately, Shane observes, this figure bears no relationship to reality. In Fool's Gold, he draws on hard data from the Federal Reserve and other sources to paint the first reliable group portrait of the lionized angel investors. Surprisingly, he finds that they are fewer, contribute less, and involve themselves in fewer start-ups than the conventional wisdom suggests. Most angels typically still have their day jobs, make investments of ,000 or less, and take little or no role in assisting entrepreneurs build their companies. Few of the companies they put money into arrive at IPOs, let alone massive returns. But angels can play a crit
Angel Investing in Early Stage Ventures: A guide to selecting and managing investments
This Kindle book of 153 pages is designed to help high net worth individuals become successful Angel Investors.
Angel investing involves active mentoring and coaching of an early stage management team towards a successful exit or additional funding, probably from a venture capital firm. This book sets out a comprehensive and rigorous process which will help the Angel generate deal flow, evaluate investment proposals and manage the investment and subsequent harvest. The book also provides a useful guide to managing operational risks in the venture.
Many high net worth individuals are reluctant to invest in early stage entrepreneurial ventures because they are unsure of how to evaluate the investment or to manage their involvement. Even those that do undertake a limited number of investments are unsure how to best structure the deal or when to intervene to ensure their investment is protected.
This book sets out:

Winning Angels is a practical, hands-on guide to angel investing, which includes tools, tactics and strategies for high-tech, low-tech, and every other kind of early-stage investing.

Some have done over 100 deals each, while others reaped rewards on investments in companies such as Apple Computer, Amazon.com, RealNetworks, idealab!, StarMedia Network, Kozmo.com, returning on occasions several hundred times their original investment. Winning Angels reduces the art of angel investing into a science, and opens the doors to those angels who have limited experience, while augmenting the experience of seasoned investors. Entrepreneurs will benefit by reading and reflecting on the contents of the book before they seek funding. They will gain access to the mindset of winning angels, and how best to win them over, as
What Every Angel Investor Wants You to Know: An Insider Reveals How to Get Smart Funding for Your Billion Dollar Idea
WHAT IF YOU HAD AN ANGEL ON YOUR SIDE? "Terrific advice from a master of the angel investing game. Brian Cohen reveals the art and craft of raising angel money. An investment in this book will pay off a thousandfold." — DR.

They deliver more capital to entrepreneurs than any other source. And they often receive an incredible return on their investments. They're angel investors, some of the most important–and least understood–players in business today. The United States has close to three million angels, whose investments in startups exceed billion per year. Some of our most successful companies were funded by angels–companies like Ford, AOL, and Amazon.com. But until now, little has been written about these angels, due in part to their preference for anonymity. Angel Investors provides an inside look at who these angels are and how they operate. It also shows would-be angels and entrepreneurs how best to find each other.

Lacrosse Making Strides in the Fight Against Breast Cancer
Oct. 15, 2012
CINCINNATI- The University of Cincinnati lacrosse team helped support breast cancer awareness by taking part in the American Cancer Society of Greater Cincinnati Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walk which was held at Yeatman's Cove at the Cincinnati riverfront on Sunday Oct. 14, 2012.
"It is a way to move to life off the field and let the girls realize that there is more to life than school and lacrosse," continued Oliver.
Head coach Gina Oliver will begin her first season as head coach of the Bearcats after five seasons as an assistant coach at Duquesne University. Oliver's squad features veteran returnees in attacker Marissa Pierson, who led the team last season with 28 goals, and goalkeeper Jennifer Walsh, who started all 16 matches in 2012. UC also returns sophomore midfielder Megan Bell who notched 21 goals as a freshman.

Ok created a spin off threadhttp://www.etiquettehell.com/smf/index.php?topic=129341.0
And of course, it's ALL OUR FAULT that the patron didn't call first to see if the DVD was in or not.I understand the man's frustration (I wanted to see the complete series of Boris Karloff's Thriller and it's gone) but to scream at someone about how THEY wasted MY time because I was too important to call first and find out if my desired item was really in? That's special to the max.
The OP & family are halfway across the country or something--they'd have to get someone to do that for them, and there's no way to be sure she wouldn't get a crowbar and pry the hasp off.And I second Hillia's nervousness. That's one reason why I suggested that Mom say, "just move it into that extra bedroom," to redirect Sis. Heck, it might be easier and actually effective to hire someone to move it into a spare bedroom; then you know it's in there, and there's no reason for Sis to keep seeing it and having it bug her. I don't know if the stuff in the garage is really in the way--it may be a territorial thing on her part. But even if it is, moving it all into the smallest bedroom might remove the "reminder" part. The other option might be to move it all into a storage unit, and make Sis pay rent to Mom & Dad that's equal to the storage-unit rent. (I wouldn't want her paying it directly; she could just stop, and the stuff would be seized.)
I nominate a relative of mine. One of her siblings came back from a multi-year overseas job assignment. And its his birthday. so they're having party this weekend for him. i'm going too, and will stay with them. We, as in relative, me, other relative and his DW had plans to go to dinner friday to celebrate.She emailed us today, asking if we'd be upset if she bailed since her exbf asked her to do something. I was livid. first of all, the whole ex situation irks me, as she's acting like a teenager, secondly, and more importantly, we had plans, plans which you want to bail on since you got a better offer.However, i think i shamed her a bit. she asked if i got the message, i said yes, but why don't you just come after work since you can't take the day off. she then said, but ex invited me to do this. i said before or after the dinner invite. and how if it were me, i would have told ex, sorry its my siblings b-day, and we've made plans to celebrate, so i can't do activity with you.she then went, oh, his actual birthday is friday? like maybe if it hadn't been, it would have been ok to ditch us all.
The city park's fbook page shared a resident's status as a way of trying to help them out. One homeowner who lives a block east of the park has been doing some work to try to fix up their house and increase their curb appeal. Part of that involves, well fixing the curb in front of their house. Apparently two people came by and drew their initials in the wet cement after dark last night and the people who own the house are saying "you (guilty party) owe us some manual labor to fix it or we will be providing a police report." What's disconcerting is that there are some replies saying "oh get over it, you could easily do the work yourself instead of bothering the police with it!" or "Come on you guys, who hasn't done this? It's a long standing tradition!" Unfortunately, I doubt anyone's going to come forward. I asked my boys if they knew anyone with those initials but they didn't. The owner of the house said it's going to cost them a great deal of $ for the rental of the equipment as well as time, which will be added to, with this little prank.
Or you could do like my father did when he poured a bit of sidewalk out front. He carefully and neatly wrote the initials of the neighbors' kids (and mine ) along with the year, on one side. It's still there 40 years later.When I had some concrete poured a few years ago, I was looking the job over and resisting the urge to write my name. Then I realized this was my concrete; I can do anything I want. So, I'm immortalized there too.
My parents and I have an inside joke about leaving cryptic messages for future owners of the house to find (eg, "The treasure is in the attic" or so on). When my parents had the floor redone on the porch, they asked the workman if they could possibly put a message in the concrete before it dried and the tiles were placed on top. Sadly he advised them against it as it could prevent the tiles from sitting right. We were all rather disappointed.
