The ice dam cometh. are you ready_ – the boston globe
The writer's home was laden with icicles.
After the winter we had, our motto became: "Ice dams be damned."
My husband and I spent the summer with a parade of roofers and insulation contractors trying to figure out how to prevent our home from being ringed by icicles again.
We had icicles everywhere: the front, the side, the back. They stretched from 2 inches to two stories tall. One time I got so annoyed at one that I tried
to knock it down with a snow shovel. I nearly got speared. Don't ever try this at home.
But the icicles weren't just a nuisance. They were destroying the house. They were the telltale signs of ice dams, which form during periods of heavy snowfall followed by a stretch of freezing temperatures.
The heat in your house rises and escapes through the attic, and it melts the snow on your roof. When the melted water flows to the edge of your roof, it will refreeze and form icicles. If this keeps happening, your house will probably develop an ice dam. That means water will back up under the shingles and then try to find a way out, usually inside your house.
Your winter home checklist
A to-do list to get your home in order before the impending cold and snow.
Fixing damage caused by winter
Can your roof handle all that snow?
In our case, we went from icicles everywhere to water everywhere. We had leaks in the bedrooms and the living room, but the worst was in the kitchen, where gallons of liquid dripped through the ceiling. Buckets and towels became the new décor.
We were actually glad to see water. We had drilled holes in the ceiling so it could drain; otherwise we feared the ceiling would collapse from the weight of trapped liquid.
By the end of February, even Governor Charlie Baker admitted that ice dams were plaguing his Swampscott home. He and his wife, Lauren, tried to shovel the snow off the roof but to no avail.
"At some point, it's just easier to do the buckets," Baker said on WGBH-FM's Boston Public Radio
My husband and I finally cracked, and one Google search later we found an outfit called the Ice Dam Guys. The company was one of those traveling crews from Minnesota that had descended on Massachusetts to steam off icicles. The dripping stopped, but at a steep cost: $1,900.
At the very least, we had peace of mind the rest of the winter. No more icicles, no more leaks. Our insurance covered the cost of repairing and repainting our kitchen, but not the ice dam removal.
In terms of preventing ice dams, that would all be on us, too. We knew we had to attack the problem on two fronts: the roof and proper insulation.
The roof on our Colonial wasn't that old, so we didn't worry about having to replace it. But a previous owner had put on an addition, and we suspected the trouble spots were where the old and new house meet.
Given the way the sun hit our home, the kitchen roof — which is separate from our main roof — seemed most susceptible to ice dams. We had had icicles form over that section (complete with leaks) a few years ago.
The roofers came and went, leaving us with all sorts of proposals that would cost anywhere from $500 to $4,000. Some suggested installing commercial gutters on the back side of our house. Others recommended fortifying the kitchen roof with an ice barrier or electric heating coils. Another told us our roof was just fine; there was already a membrane underneath.
We concluded that we didn't need an expensive fix. We spent $500 to install flashing in problem areas. We had a roofer put in strips of metal around a gutter that sits between the main roof and a secondary roof, as well as around vent pipes. The flashing would do nothing to prevent ice dams, but it would provide another layer of protection during the Storm of the Century, Take Two.
Next up: insulation. Our first step was to call Mass Save, an energy audit program set up by the state, funded by ratepayers, and administered by the major utility companies. A guy came out to poke holes in our walls and inspect our attic. The verdict: Yep, we need a lot more insulation.
We weren't the only ones trying to stay dry and warm. Because of the bad winter, Eversource, our electric company, told me that requests for home-energy assessments surged 22 percent between February and April compared with the same period in 2014.
Insulating both the walls and attic typically costs homeowners $6,000 to $10,000, says Bruce Harley, a senior manager at CLEAResult, which runs energy-efficiency programs, including one as Eversource's lead vendor for Mass Save.
"If it were me, do the attic first," said Harley, who lives in the Berkshires and has also written two books on energy fixes for homes. "That is going to affect your ice issues more."
Our unfinished attic needed help. For insulation, we had fiberglass batts (the pink fluffy stuff) on the floor and in the sides. While many houses use fiberglass because it's inexpensive, it clearly wasn't doing the job.
We needed the good stuff. That meant looking at blown-in cellulose or spray foam.
A quick primer: Cellulose insulation is made up of recycled newspapers or ground-up cardboard and other sources of wood fiber that are treated with a flame retardant. It can be blown into your walls and your attic, where it settles on the floor and into gaps. You should seal the attic and ductwork before you insulate.
Spray foam is made of plastic and is the priciest option. There are two kinds: open and closed cell. Open cell has less insulating power than closed, but it is not as expensive. People use spray foam in complex attic floor plans and where they're looking to finish the space.
In our case, various contractors told us that going with cellulose or spray foam was a matter of preference; it had little to do insulation, but rather how we wanted to use our attic.
If we chose cellulose, we could no longer keep stuff up there because the insulation would be everywhere. If we chose spray foam, we could continue to use the attic for storage.
We were torn, and here's why: Mass Save offers a discount of up to $2,000 for cellulose. Large-scale foam spray insulation is not covered.
It felt wrong to leave thousands of dollars of money on the table; the cellulose job using Mass Save would cost about $2,200. Foam spray would be nearly double the price, but we like having the extra space.
I decided to get a second opinion from somebody who just went through his own ice dam-prevention plan: former state energy secretary Ian Bowles.
Bowles has done this twice — once at his old home in Jamaica Plain and more recently at his new house in Dover. He also penned a Globe Op-Ed about fighting ice dams.
Bowles is a big fan of foam spray. He has used both open and closed cell in his homes. The foam spray is costlier, but if you're serious about defending your house against ice dams, it's worth the price, he said.
When writing that bigger check, he advised, just tell yourself: "I am determined to stare down the ice dam enemy and never see it again."

AOSTA, Italy (AP) Pope Benedict XVI spent a calm night after breaking his wrist in his Alpine vacation chalet and is learning to cope with the cast on his right arm, the Vatican said Saturday.
Benedict, 82, will stick to his schedule of public appearances, including the traditional Angelus prayer on Sunday, Vatican spokesman the Rev. Federico Lombardi said in a statement.
Benedict had surgery at the hospital of the nearby town of Aosta on Friday to set his right wrist, fractured when he fell overnight in a chalet where he staying in the mountain hamlet of Les Combes, near the French border.
The right-handed pope will have to keep the cast for a month. Lombardi said the toughest part for Benedict was giving up writing by hand, which he intended to do often during his vacation.
"He is learning to live with a blocked wrist, this is not very easy," Lombardi told AP Television News. "The pope cannot write, do handwriting as he desired in these days. But for the other aspects, the day is normal."
Another pleasure that he is sure to be denied in the near term is playing the piano. The pope is a classical music lover and enjoys playing while on vacation.
The fracture was the first significant medical issue of Benedict's 4-year-old papacy, and doctors said Friday he would suffer no long-term effects and would be able to return to playing piano and writing once the wrist heals.
Benedict is scheduled to stay until July 29 in Les Combes. On Sunday he will go as planned to Romano Canavese, the hometown of his No. 2 official, Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, to deliver the Angelus, Lombardi said.
He will celebrate Vespers in Aosta's cathedral on Friday and deliver the Sunday blessing in Les Combes on July 26.
Benedict has spent two summers at Les Combes in recent years. He said upon arrival that he expected to rest and work during his vacation.
His predecessor, Pope John Paul II, also spent several summers here. While John Paul liked to hike, Benedict spends most of his time inside the chalet, which looks out on Mont Blanc, the highest peak in the Alps.

Best Of :: Shopping & Services
If you don't know about Centre, chances are you're old, hate rap music and have never been on a skateboard. Because everyone else in town knows well about this Mockingbird Station shop, the go-to retail spot for all things street wear and culturally up-to-date. Eye-catching graphic tees, hard-to-find sneakers, expressive ballcaps and even ceramic toys — Centre's got it all. Other things, too, like in-store appearances from musicians and artists rolling through town. Plus, it's just a cool spot to hang out in, a haven for those for which the "new" is too old and "new-new" can't come fast enough. The best part: Aside, even, from being Dallas' epicenter of all things cool, the people who work and shop here are proud of their Dallas roots. You need a shirt that says you proudly rep the D, but you're sick of wearing another sports team tee? Hit up Centre. They'll hook you up with a fresh look.
f. is for frank, but we're inclined to say f. is for freaking awesome fashion. Shannah Frank and Casey Melton create hand-cast pewter jewelry, decorative hardware and more in their Design District studio. Jewelry designs are tough but incredibly elegant and often inspired by nature — hickory nuts, sea sponges, peacocks, horse teeth, rubber, wood and more in pewter and gold- and rose gold-plate. Perhaps the most exciting aspect of f. is for frank's jewelry is the attention to scale: from oversized cocktail rings and collar necklaces to teensy, delicate charms and simple bands. Though dramatic, the pieces are executed flawlessly thanks to the duo's experience in architectural elements and design. Housewares and hospitality offerings venture into more literal territory, but are still beautifully crafted, providing new life to drawers and doors, place settings and even Christmas trees. f. also provides custom services ranging from furniture to lighting to sculptural pieces. Frank and Melton share the love by hosting DIY workshops and parties and by proving a constant presence in the local Etsy and artisan fair community.
The Wald Front Wire Basket, for about 20 bucks, has been the classic American bicycle basket for almost a century — big and sturdy enough for a load of groceries, a small dog or a very frightened cat. Don Johles Bike World has the Wald front and back steel baskets along with 10 pages of other cool baskets on its web page, from techno to retro, including the Sunlite Quick Release Rattan Basket, which looks a lot like the basket Miss Gulch used when she took Toto away from Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz. Good selection in the brick-and-mortar store too.
This is an easy place to miss, so you need to slow down and really look for it. In an old yellow house tucked way back on a long gravel driveway between the Taco Bell and Goody Goody Liquor, Sunshine Trees is a longtime survivor from the semi-rural hippie days of Upper Greenville. Founded in 1965, Sunshine's main specialty is bonsai — the tiny Japanese miniatures grown in bowls — but they also carry a line of exotic citrus, miniature lime, orange and lemon, that can survive well, if properly tended, on apartment balconies in Texas. Some of the plants at Sunshine are imported from Central America and Asia, but more are grown from seed in a 7,400-foot greenhouse that is open to the public. Even if you're not in the market for a tree, this is a cool place to visit on a slow weekend.
In Dallas we have no shortage of antique stores/old-skin-flake collectors. But we only have one Junkadoodle. Bettyann and Jimbo's Junkadoodle is a collection of the unusual — furniture, art, lamps, knickknacks, tiny floppy hats, oversized stiff hats, etc. — but it's a special collection. Seriously. Their shit is good. In other stores you'll pick up the nude-y ashtray, touch its nipples, giggle and put it back. But in Bettyann and Jimbo's you'll pick up a far more sophisticated version and realize you need to own it. Like now. That's the difference. B&J's is well-curated, easy to navigate and on the way to Love Field. Every now and then they even hold a flea market out front. And in his spare time, Jimbo will teach you to dance. Formal dance only. None of that booty bumpin'.
Still mourning the demise of Ahab Bowen? Rejoice, for Michael Longcrier is risen and has taken his baubles, bangles and bow ties to Dolly Python, which is owned by his protégé Gretchen Bell. This is value-added for a longtime favorite among vintage shoppers and now there's another treasure to hunt for in racks full of fabulousness — look for tags with "AB." Dolly Python is a vortex of vintage, full-immersion shopping. The clothing racks pull you in — perhaps a circa 1970s hostess skirt, a vintage Elvis Costello T-shirt or a pair of gem-encrusted white plastic sandals. Then, an irresistible magnetic pull draws you through the cluttered aisles. Pause to flip through the vinyl at Big Bucks Burnett's booth, fondle a ceramic cowboy, consider some bad art, peer at photos of someone's dour long-forgotten ancestors. Bet you can't leave empty-handed.

Song: At The Hop
Tuning: Standard
(Transcribed by FrostG)
Note: All chords standard except F which I think sounds best played as:
X 3 3 2 1 1 (is standard bar chord without the root note)
Note also that the chords for each verse and each refrain are the same
So I'll only write them out once!
(And between verses)
[Verse 1]
Put me in your suitcase
Am F
Let me help you pack
'Cause you're never coming back
No you're never coming back
Cook me in your breakfast
And put me on your plate
Cause you know I'll taste great
Yeah you know I taste great
Am G
At the hop its greaseball heaven
With candy pants
And archie too
[Verse 2]
(same as verse 1)
Put me in your dry dream
Oh put me in your wet
If you haven't yet
No if you haven't yet
Light me with your candle
And watch that flames grow high
You know it doesn't hurt to try
It doesn't hurt to try
(same as above)
Well I won't stop all of my-y pretending
That you'll come home
You'll be comin' home some day soon
Put me in your blue skies
Oh put me in your grey
There's gotta be some way
There's gotta be some way
Put me in your tounge tied
Make it hard to say
That you ain't gonna stay
That you ain't gonna stay
Wrap me in your marrow
And stuff me in your bones
And sing a mending moan
A song to bring you home
yeah good work. i saw devendra do it on youtube once n i think he played the Cs with a G bass note too. had his mate playin an bin too, haha
The F after "candy pants" should be a Dm. Could throw in an F on "too" before the final G of the bridge, but I think it sounds better to stay on Dm until the G.

Need Appliance Repair Help? Ask a Technician for Answers ASAP
I just swapped the entire cluster top and bottom... that should put the top controls now working for the bottom oven and vice versa, I hope. Should I try it and see if the top oven now has the previous problems of the bottom? I guess the only thing we haven't swapped is the elements...
I do have a multimeter but am not the world's best electrician.
okay... the top oven still controls the top oven and now the way it is wired it heated up once but won't maintain the temp. The bottom oven on the other hand when set to 350 heated up past 500 so I shut it off.
My bet is that there is something fishy with that original bottom thermostat which now won't reheat the upper oven. Do I start my crap shoot with replacing it and seeing what happens?

The four of us engaged the enemy army. Or rather, Gil and Sesus engaged the enemy army, while Shadow and I flew the corvette into the camp. Sesus shouted orders to Gil, who inevitably became distracted swatting at a cybernetically-enhanced human. After getting cut up a bit, Gil uppercutted him into the air, and the fall knocked him out.
Meanwhile, Shadow and I snuck into the enemy camp and attacked Krishna Wapasha, Geir's traitor Sidereal. After a short, but difficult battle, we were able to knock him out. Barely conscious ourselves, we escaped back to the corvette with the captured Sidereal.
Sesus and Gil then chased after the enemy general, a Solar. They weren't able to catch him before he reached the convoy leaving the camp, and he emerged in an Oricalchum warstrider. After a short battle, the warstrider was scrapped, but the Solar survived, and nearly incapacitated Gil, but he was hit with a lucky blow and completely squished.
Once the fighting finished, Geir finally arrived. Wooo. He allowed us to leave with Krishna to perform the interrogation ourselves. Some investigation using pattern spiders revealed that the artifacts shipped from the dig site eventually went to Nechara, part of the Republic of Chaya, after going through most of the east.

Oklahoma State started on its own 39-yard line and the Wildcats forced third down before Joseph Randle picked up 14 yards for the first down. Three plays later, quarterback Wes Lunt found Blake Jackson for a 28-yard reception and it only took a few more plays before Lunt found Tracy Moore for the nine-yard touchdown as the extra point made it 7-0 with 13:03 left in the first quarter.
Arizona tried to get something going with a 13-yard pass to Dan Buckner, who caught one for ten yards two plays later. Three plays after that, Austin Hill caught a 15-yard pass to Oklahoma State's 30-yard line. Unfortunately, Matt Scott was sacked and the drive stalled, as the Wildcats eventually turned it over with an incompletion on fourth down.
Oklahoma State started with 21 combined yards in three plays before Jeremy Sith gained 18 on the next two. After a holding call, Lunt found Moore for a 30-yard touchdown, as he beat Shaquille Richardson for his second score of the game.
Two plays into Arizona's drive, Oklahoma State defensive tackle Calvin Barnett was called for two personal fouls that put Arizona at the Cowboys' 30-yard line. After two short runs by Ka'Deem Carey, Richard Morrison caught a 12-yard pass and two plays later scored on a 15-yard reception, as the UA cut it to 14-7 with 5:19 left in the first quarter.
Two plays into the Oklahoma State drive, Joseph Randle fumbled and Jake Fischer recovered, giving the Wildcats the ball at the 29-yard line. The Wildcats got to the 11 two plays later when an Oklahoma State defender was called for a late hit on Dan Buckner. The drive then stalled and on fourth and goal from the three-yard line, John Bonano nailed a 21-yard field goal to make it 14-10 with three minutes left in the first quarter.
Arizona finally forced Oklahoma State into a three and out due in large part to a holding penalty. Arizona took over on the Cowboys' 37-yard line with an 11-yard pass from Scott to Tyler Slavin. Two plays later, Terrence Miller caught a six-yard pass to end the first quarter. Scott got sacked on third down and Bonano came in and made a 46-yard field goal to make it 14-13 in favor of Oklahoma State.
Arizona's defense held once again and the drive started on its own 27 with a nine-yard pass to Taimi Tutogi. Two plays later, Hill grabbed a 33-yard pass. The drive then stopped, forcing Bonano to come in and attempt a 24-yard field goal as the make gave the Wildcats a 16-14 lead with 11:46 left in the first half.
The teams then exchanged possessions before Oklahoma State got the ball back on its own 38-yard line after a ten-yard punt by Scott. The Wildcats proceeded to stop Oklahoma State for the fifth straight series and a penalty gave the Wildcats the ball on their own 34.
The UA started the drive with an 11-yard pass to Hill followed by a six-yard run by Scott. Carey then gained five yards in the air and followed with seven on the ground. Two plays later, Hill caught a 21-yard pass and three plays after that, Scott found Slavin for a ten-yard gain to the one. Carey was able to score on the ensuing play and the extra point made it 23-14 with a little over three minutes left in the first half.
The Cowboys tried to put up some points before the end of the half as Lunt found Moore for a 13-yard pass and Randle followed with a seven-yard run. Two plays later, Smith ran for 15 yards and after a five-yard reception by Randle, Jared Tevis came up with an interception off a tipped pass by Jonathan McKnight, allowing Arizona to go into the half up 23-14.
Arizona started the second half on its own 25-yard line with a 12-yard reception by Carey that had a personal foul added onto it. Three plays later, Scott found Morrison for a seven-yard run then gained the first on a three-yard run on fourth down. Two plays later, Buckner caught a 13-yard pass and gained 11 more two plays after that.
Oklahoma State then forced a third down and blitzed, but the offensive line picked it up and Scott found Carey for a 13-yard touchdown as the extra point made it 30-14 with 9:59 left in the third quarter.
Needing an answer, Randle gained 18 yards on a reception two plays into Oklahoma State's drive. Three plays later, he gained 13 on the ground and Isaiah Anderson followed with 17 yards in the air.

ON the next play, Smith ran it in from ten yards out and the extra point made it 30-28 with 4:54 left.
Arizona did not take long to get going, as Scott found Hill for a 44-yard reception. Carey then gained 15 on the ground and Morrison caught a nine-yard reception. Two plays later, Scott scored from eight yards out on a keeper and the extra point made it 37-28 with 3:16 left in the third.
Oklahoma State tried to match it on its next drive with a 42-yard pass from Lunt to Stewart followed by two carries for a combined 11 yards by Randle. Three plays later, Jackson caught a 16-yard pass and a personal foul put Oklahoma State in field goal position. Arizona was able to force that field goal, as the 25-yard make made it 37-31 to end the third quarter.
Oklahoma State tried to get the lead on its next drive starting with a 20-yard pass to Stewart. Two plays later, Anderson caught one for 12 yards and Arizona was able to force third down. On third down, Arizona pressured Lunt into a bad throw and Jonathan McKnight came up with the 48-yard pick six as a two-point conversion pass to Tutogi made the game 45-31 with 10:24 left.
Arizona was able to force a three and out before it took over on its own 25-yard line with 8:53 left in the fourth. Unfortunately, nothing got going for Arizona and the Wildcats punted to Oklahoma State's 20.
Oklahoma State needed a score badly and instead, Lunt threw an interception to Tevis who took the ball back to the Oklahoma State 33-yard line. Carey gained five yards to start the drive and two plays later, was able to score from 25 yards out as the extra point gave the Wildcats the 52-31 lead. Oklahoma State was able to answer starting with a 19-yard pass to Jackson. Three plays later, Smith ran for 23 yards and then Lunt was able to find Moore for a 22-yard touchdown.
Arizona recovered the onside kick and Carey would later add another touchdown, as the Wildcats sealed the deal.

Arsène Wenger admits he has not yet decided on the possibility of Ryo heading out on loan in the January transfer window.
The 18-year-old enjoyed a successful three-month stint with Feyenoord in the Eredivisie last season, scoring three times in his 12 appearances.
Reports have suggested that Wenger may allow the Japanese youth international out on loan at the turn of the year - but the boss is not so sure.
"No, there is no truth in that at the moment," said the Frenchman. "I will decide that at the beginning of January."

'I decree': Farm policy by fiat
It's hard, messy work to make U.S. farm and food policy. But last minute, quick decision on farm policy is not the answer.
Oh, the mail we get
Letters, telephone calls, and emails from Maryland to Montana arrived daily to comment and question, debate and deflate.
A Christmas awakening
More than 40 Christmas Nights later, I have not forgotten two calves named Mary and Joseph and Howard's priceless gift of simple giving.
On the road: New York City
If farming and ranching is really about food, then farmers and ranchers should be at the forefront of New Food, not in the lead ranks of the Old Guard.
Do mosquitos matter: Is genetic research a good or bad thing?
A powerful new gene-editing tool called CRISPR/Cas9 is big news in the animal and plant agriculture world.
Never heard of CRISPR? You will
Few sectors of the global economy are more hooked on gene modification technology than agriculture.
My best Thanksgiving choice
Forty years ago, 1975, a relatively mild central Illinois fall ended with a sledgehammer of a snowstorm the night before Thanksgiving. I remember it well because, as both a student and farmhand at the University of Illinois that year, I spent Thanksgiving Day milking Holsteins and pushing snow off the cow lots.
Co-ops like CHS at tipping point
Ag co-op giant, CHS Inc. says it needs to update bylaws to ensure locals "operate on a cooperative basis or be an organization primarily owned and controlled by a member cooperative."
Crop insurance goes global
Nations shift ag subsidies from direct farmer payments to indirect farm income guarantees, and two-thirds of all nations with crop insurance programs now subsidize its purchase.

I'm supposed to race an S2000 tonight. THis is a very important race for me, lots of bragging rights on the line. The driver of the S2000 is a girl on top of it all
Anyway, I have a 2003 WRX with UTEC stage 1, blitz exhaust, and RFL BOV. I also have 18" wheels for that matter, making it a tad bit harder to launch. I have killed several mustangs lately, including a 95 5.0 cobra and an 02 GT w/ drag radials, intake, pullies, catback, and gears.
I'm worried about the S2000 though just because of her crazy top end power. I've heard that she can drive pretty decent, but she just put on some new 17" wheels and tires, and the new tires are kind of ****ty, so they may not hookup as well as the S02's used to. THe S2000 is bone stock.

New York City hotel opening: Inside the Refinery Hotel
The design of this New York City hotel in the Garment District plays on the building's industrial and retail roots.
New York City hotel opening: Inside the Refinery Hotel
Though it looks original, the lobby's groin-vaulted ceiling is a new addition that plays on the building's neo-Gothic style. The architects commissioned Museum Editions in Tribeca to create the installation of 500 millinery tools behind the front desk.
Screened off from the lobby with leaded-glass panels, Winnie's Tea Lounge takes its name from Winifred McDonald, who owned a ladies' tearoom in the building in the early 20th century. Though the decor references the past—with smart plaid-patterned walnut paneling—small plates and cocktails will be on the menu instead of the titular drink.
In the guest quarters, custom-made furnishings subtly reference the garment industry for a look that's more sophisticated than steampunk: Wall coverings riff on linen fabric, super-soft bed throws mimic burlap, and coffee tables are modeled on early-20th-century factory carts. The oversize floor lamp was inspired by a Fortuny photographer's light from the same period.
Beltlike straps on the headboard aren't a kinky accoutrement—in another nod to garment manufacturing, they secure a leather pad to the steel and walnut panel. Luxurious touches like built-in brass reading lamps and Frette linens offset the functional look.
The desks are reproductions of vintage Singer sewing-machine tables.
Bathrooms mix grand hotel luxury—a marble mosaic "bath mat," old-fashioned brass taps from British company Lefroy Brooks, walk-in showers with room for two—with a more functional aesthetic reflected in the variation on subway tiles and a sliding steel-and-glass door.
Opening in June, the 3,500-square-foot roof is a year-round destination, comprising three distinct spaces: an indoor bar with a fireplace, a semi-open atrium featuring a retractable skylight and a fountain, and an outdoor deck. To lend the space some gritty NYC cred, the architects used wood salvaged from the building's dismantled water tower to build the ceiling and an interior wall.
Don your vintage fedora and head to this fashion-conscious New York City hotel in the Garment District. Stonehill & Taylor Architects, the firm behind the 1912 building's conversion and design, took inspiration from its neo-Gothic architecture, as well as its former life as a hat-making hub: In the headpiece heyday, garment manufacturers and milliners toiled on the upper floors while the ground level was devoted to showrooms and a genteel tea salon for shoppers. "It created this duality, almost an Upstairs, Downstairs kind of thing," explains Stonehill & Taylor principal Christina Zimmer. "We thought that was really interesting and brought it to bear on our new hotel." (The firm's CV also includes The NoMad Hotel and Ace Hotel New York.)
With exposed pipes, concrete ceilings and oak floors, the rooms have an industrial aesthetic that echoes the former factory space, while the public areas on the ground floor are more—dare we say it—refined. Eating and drinking options include an elegant lobby lounge, American bistro Parker & Quinn and—bumping up the number of great rooftop bars in NYC—a sprawling indoor–outdoor space with a direct view of the Empire State Building. 63 W 38th St between Fifth and Sixth Aves (646-664-0310, refineryhotelnewyork.com). Rates start at $399.

Happy Thanksgiving!
This is my favorite time of year. I love all the fall colors, especially the leaves. Currently visiting in Bethesda, Maryland where all the leaves are red, orange and gold on the trees, slowly falling off. There are heaps of leaves on the side of the roads where people have raked them. You don't see that in Florida. Hope everyone has a nice holiday and safe travels.

Grommet / Eyelets
I call them grommets, the package says eyelets, but I am challenged to say the least in applying them to fabric. The first couple I tried did not stay together, this is the third attempt and I can't get the tool out of the grommet. Is it me or does anyone else have this problem? I will be off later to buy more and check out alternatives. I am trying to design something and definitely need a grommet. Just one is all I want and it doesn't look like it's going to be easy.
I bought a snap press as snaps never worked for me either.

Candle Mat Swap
This is the candle mat I made for my swap partner. She wanted purple in it, but I could not work the color in with my charm square pack. I did back the candle mat with purple and also made her this little snap bag filled with candy. I also included a little Mary Englebret journal. Hope she likes it!

Today I was with Effie helping mom weed her garden when we saw Dad pull into the driveway. Me & Effie ran up to greet him but we were so excited we got tangled up and I fell in front of the back of the truck and suddenly felt an awful pain, mom came running & crying, she held my head & dad carried me into the house & put me in my bed. Mom talked to me but I started to drift away and the pain started to fade. Next thing I knew I was floating away and opened my eyes and I was in a beautiful place. I saw mom way below crying and Effie and Sterling were crying and looking for me. I miss mom and I know she is having a hard time losing me, we were so bonded. I love you mom and am glad you rescued me and gave me love. I`ll be here waiting for you.
Love, Bart
Hi All,
My name is Bart I`m a Red Merle miniature Australian Shepherd. I was in a place called a no kill shelter with so many other dogs and I was very shy and tried to get enough food but it was difficult. One day one of the people who took care of all us dogs caught me and told me someone was here to take me home. I didn`t know what that meant and was scared, I didn`t want to leave my sister. I was taken into a room and my new mom picked me up I tried not to be too scared. Then the other person brought my sister out and showed her to my new mom and asked if she would take her too, She said yes and we both got put into a clean comfortable box and a few hours later we were in our new home. We got a bath that night and it felt so good to be clean and have food that we didn`t have to fight for. I also have a big brother named Sterling and there are 5 kitties too.
I will add more but I have to share mom with the rest of the fur family.

The skin is the largest organ of our body. It protects us from the environment and regulates our body temperature. Skin is made up of millions of cells. Each day thousands of these cells die, fall off, and are replaced by new cells from beneath the outer layer of skin.
As we age, this process begins to slow down. Dark blotches and other signs of aging and sun damage begin to appear. Our skin may become dull and begin to form wrinkles.
What do the stars of Hollywood use to keep that youthful glow?
The answer might surprise you. It's not facelifts or laser resurfacing, but a painless, non-invasive lunchtime procedure known as Microdermabrasion. With Microdermabrasion, you can have a treatment and return to work immediately. Microdermabrasion is performed by our doctor for patients in our region to create softer, smoother and healthier looking skin.
If you are unhappy with age spots, acne scars, stretch marks, fine wrinkles or flaking skin, you might want to consider Microdermabrasion. Microdermabrasion has been used in Europe for years. Now this exciting procedure is one of the top non-surgical, no knife, cosmetic fixes in the United States. It is helping men and women everywhere experience remarkable improvements in skin texture regardless of skin color. Microdermabrasion treatments combined with our skin care products are a safe, comprehensive approach to skin care.
How it works?
Microdermabrasion is the term used for a procedure that applies minuscule grains to buff away the surface layer of the skin, known as the stratum corneum. The procedure can be understood as "sandblasting" but obviously on a less aggressive scale.
The skin is comprised of two layers, the epidermis and dermis. The epidermis is the layer closest to the outside world. It is made up of a set of dead cells layered on top of one another that are in the process of maturation. The uppermost layer of the epidermis is the stratum corneum. The stratum corneum is our outer shell, the shield or wall that protects our lower skin layers and keeps all but the microscopic molecules out. The stratum corneum is also where all our imperfections show, such as wrinkles and blemishes.
Microdermabrasion takes place at the level of the stratum corneum. To go any deeper would be extremely painful and harmful.
We offer two types of microdermabrasion, crystal and diamond tip, both of which are conducted with a hand-held device. The minuscule grains mentioned before are actually crystals. The most commonly used crystals are aluminum oxide, sodium chloride and sodium bicarbonate. At our clinic we use aluminum oxide as it is proven to have the best results and our cases have validated its effectiveness. The hand-held tool propels an even and steady high-speed flow of crystals onto the skin, gently buffing away the stratum corneum without affecting or harming the lower layers of skin. The device has a vacuum system as well, which allows the crystals to do their work while simultaneously collecting the dead cells, debris, and used crystals for disposal.
The diamond tip microdermabrasion, more commonly known as "diamond peel", is a newer tool that uses a single disposable or reusable diamond tip wand instead of the crystals. In other words, it is crystal-free. Diamonds are considerably harder than the crystals used for microdermabrasion. Aluminum oxide is the second hardest mineral after diamonds. We use the diamond tip for individuals with acne scars or darker spots. Furthermore, since diamond tips is crystal-free it is unlikely to leave teeny annoying grains in your eyes, nose, ears, or mouth. Excluding the aforementioned details, the diamond tip works the same way as crystal microdermabrasion. In fact, many individuals cannot see the difference between the two in regards to results, as they both achieve equally positive results. It is a matter of preference.
Is Microdermabrasion safe?
Yes. Microdermabrasion is non-invasive. The procedure only removes the outermost layer of dead skin cells to reveal the fresher and younger cells beneath. Regardless of your skin's condition, fine lines and age spots may be reduced or erased, and acne scars and stretch marks will become less noticeable. After effects of the procedure are minor, such as mild redness or swelling. Some individuals do not experience any redness or swelling. It all depends on how sensitive your skin is.
Why choose Microdermabrasion?
Microdermabrasion takes less time than other more invasive procedures. There is no downtime or discomfort, and you can resume normal activities immediately. What's more, results are immediately visible. Best results are achieved after a couple of sessions, contingent on your expectations and severity of skin imperfections.
Who are the best candidates for Microdermabrasion?
The best candidates for Microdermabrasion are those patients that:
- Cannot afford to take time off for healing from a chemical peel or laser procedure.
- Don't want to put off their outdoor activities like golf, tennis or skiing.
- Have skin sensitivities to chemicals or make-up.
- Have acne-prone skin that has not responded well to other acne remedies.
- Have superficial acne scars, sun damage, and/or blemishes.
- Are younger and whose skin is showing early signs of aging.
Maintaining the results of Microdermabrasion
Maintaining healthy looking skin is a daily task. Always wear SPF of at least 30 or more to protect your skin from the sun's harmful rays. Keep your skin hydrated and fresh with daily cleansing and moisturizing using specially formulated skin care products. Ask your skin care specialist about recommendations for your skin care products.
Dr. Gul Zikira recommends follow-up sessions to help maintain your results or achieve better results. Ask us about our money saving treatment packages.
What are Microdermabrasion treatments like?
Microdermabrasion treatments are not aggressive; they are slow and progressive, and best of all, they work! Most patients find Microdermabrasion treatments to be quite relaxing. The treatment is like a "superficial skin polishing" using micro-crystals vacuumed through a delicate hand piece. In as little as 35 minutes, this gentle, abrasive technique efficiently produces satisfying results. Following the treatment, we may treat your skin with specially formulated creams to further soften and moisturize your skin. Treatments are applied through a course of weekly or bi-weekly sessions, ranging from 2 - 12 weeks.
How soon will I see results with Microdermabrasion?
Immediately! After our aesthetician performs your first Microdermabrasion treatment, your skin will have a fresh pink glow. It will look healthier and feel smoother and softer. Your improvement will continue throughout your treatment program.

Hello from Ontario
Hi All,
My wife and I bought our first house a year ago, it's a 4-level side split built in 1966...plaster over gypsum walls, plank subflooring, old plumbing, some aluminum wiring, inadequate insulation/VB, a roof replacement, and a previous not-so-careful DIY'er owner have kept me busy. Pretty standard things when owning a home I'm sure. I've been lucky to have learned a lot about doing my own work from my dad growing up.
I joined this forum because I have a roof leak and have found many helpful threads here to help me...looking forward to reading and learning a ton more!
Welcome! Hope we can all be of some help to each other.

50 Cent – Financial Freedom Music Video
You can't front! 50 Cent is consistently dropping new heat and he's done it again! His latest track Financial Freedom sounds like he channeled Get Rich or Die Trying 50 Cent. The music video has no video vixens, no cars, nothing! Its just a hungry 50 Cent and if he continues down this path, I'm certain his album will be a hit.

I've lived in apartments all my life, so it was with great pleasure that I accepted the offer to housesit for some friends.
The 10 days I spent there were wonderful. I loved having a washer and dryer at my fingertips, the quiet street, the starry skies at night and the meticulously maintained grounds of this planned community.
But my favorite part of the housesitting experience, hands down, was the pool.
Now, I have to share a bit of irony. I've been the editor of Pool & Spa News for seven years, and though I've swum in municipal pools thousands of times, I have limited experience with more private facilities.
This pool was open only to residents of the community, and there was a feeling of familiarity between all guests. As a gathering place, it attracted people across the full spectrum of life: Small children played in the shallow end while teenagers gleefully competed to make the biggest splash. Some parents took pleasure in teaching their kids how to swim while others enjoyed reading quietly. Older residents sat in the shade, sipping cool drinks and playing cards.
It was a tiny piece of heaven in the middle of suburban America.
I've loved pools since I was young, and have always believed they play an important role in family life. However, it wasn't until I sat on that deck and watched wonderful memories literally being created in front of my eyes that I understood how our amazing product unifies otherwise disparate groups of people.
Pools represent everything that's good in life. Friendships are formed, lovers find each other, and laughter comes easily. How lucky we are, even in tough times, to be in the business of water. This miraculous substance can carve a giant canyon out of the earth as easily as it can shape one small, happy community.

California Employment Law
Have California Employment Law Questions? Ask a Lawyer.
Hello and welcome to JustAnswer.
I'm very sorry to hear about your situation and hope I can help.
If you can get a statement or an affidavit from your coworker that confirms that you did immediately ask about the keys and your manager actually had them at that point and then hid them, that would definitely benefit your case. It's even better to have him present at the hearing to support you. That would change the situation from a he said/she said situation giving you unbiased support of your version of the events and would go in favor of you being terminated through no fault of your own rather than through cause.
Your employer appears to be arguing that you broke a reasonable employer rule by failing to lock up your computer and drawer in the past and misplacing your keys. The employer would need to prove that this was a reasonable rule and that you understood it to be one. (Normally this means that they would need written documentation in an employee handbook or proof that you had been advised).
The primary thing that would be working against you is that you had been written up in the past for not locking up your computer and your drawer, so it's likely you would have been aware of some rule regarding keys.
Also, if there's any reason to suspect that your manager treated you differently due to discrimination based on a protected characteristic (such as sex, race, national origin, or ethnicity) that would also significantly help your case.
I hope you found the above information helpful.
Please don't hesitate to ask me any follow up or additional questions, as I want to be sure you're as prepared as possible for your hearing.
Thanks and best of luck!
i Had a written from the previous manager and there's a begining date and ending date from 07/09/2012 to 09/09/2012 and the new manager and I got fired on 01/30/2013. I have not had any written warning from the new manager but got fired a week later after the key incident. would this new information help?
Hello Olga,
Unfortunately, if there is a record of your write up from the previous manager (although the dates on it had expired), it could still be used against you by the current manager after the alleged 'key incident.'
However, since you were initially granted unemployment benefits, your employer bears the burden of proof that you were actually terminated for misconduct (violating a reasonable employer rule), so the standard of proof and your witness' (co-worker's) statement will definitely help you in establishing that you were terminated through no fault of your own and not for cause.
hi Joseph,
I still have a couple questions for you. My hearing date is tomorrow I got 2 witnesses 1 who can confirm that my previous manager was treating me unfairly (discriminated), where harassing me because they will com to my cubical contently pull my draws even while I still wrapping up a transaction and whenever someone else is in the same situation they will just ignore it. Pressure after pressure till a start getting sick.
The 2 witness has been terminated wrongfully has well she said that the manager has lied about a written warning but they ignored it and she got fired after 9 years of service and she is disabled. I heard him saying that he was happy she was gone because she had filled once for disability leave.
the date of our audit on of my coworker who is friend to the manager left his drawer open. they locked it quick for him and never address it to him
Sure, please let me know what your questions are.
(I didn't see a question in your response, just more information regarding your hearing and witnesses).
A few days after i got terminated i called the HR that i was terminated for the keys that my manager has hidden from me and she told me that was not what showed on my filled he had said that for performance issues, and for customer complaint, refuse to give service to the customer..... which was wrong my numbers showed after I left my sale were 100%. He had lost his keys and gone on vacation and the assistant manager found it. I was around I witness that. Would these information help more to defend my case. which one would be at my advantage?
It could be helpful to your case, but it wouldn't be too important if your employer is alleging that you were let go for another reason at the hearing. It would definitely be helpful to have your witnesses present since they can provide evidence that you also possessed good customer service skills and did not have any performance issues.

Search for missing girl in 5th day
ST. JAMES - It was five days ago that Talaija Dorsey, 12, went missing in St. James parish.
On Saturday, rescue crews focused on the waterways between St. James and Jefferson parishes. St. James sheriff Willy Martin tells News 2 they also spent the day following up with family members and people who knew the family. They also followed up on tips they got overnight, but nothing has come of them.
"I am mad right now, I'm mad cause if he is the one he was man enough to take her from home he is man enough to admit what he has done and give my niece back, giver her back to us either way we want closure, we need this closure," said Dorsey's aunt Elizabeth Davis.
Dorsey was last seen Tuesday morning at about 5 a.m. at her house. A friend came to her house and asked for her, and when Dorsey's mom went to look for her, she wasn't there. Since then, Sheriff's departments, state police and the FBI have all joined in the search.
When Dorsey went missing on Tuesday, deputies sized a white 2001 four-door Chrysler Concord that they believe is connected to the case. Since then, they have released a flyer asking if anyone recognizes the vehicle and can give information about where they saw it.
John Celestine, the fiance of Dorsey's mother, was arrested during the investigation on obstruction of justice charges. A family member told News 2 one of Dorsey's slippers was found in Celestine's van.
The sheriff's office said a $2,500 reward is offered for information which leads to the arrest of the people responsible for Dorsey's disappearance. Tips can be called in to 1-855-TIPS-247 or by texting TIP SJPSO to 888777.

Bird Gods
From ESPN writer Jayson Stark, commenting on Yadlier Molina's game-winning home run last night:
"But not even Endy Chavez could leap high enough or far enough to keep this ball from landing in the Cardinals' Game 7 pantheon."
So the Cardinals have a temple honoring all of their gods -- or is it just all of their "Game 7" gods? -- just over the left field fence in Shea Stadium? Why would the Mets allow that? No wonder they lost!
Of course that is to take Stark literally. But what would he mean figuratively? The home-run ball has now become one of the Cardinals' gods? Or perhaps it just landed among the Game 7 gods, maybe hitting one of them right in the pantheon? Ouch!
Dick Blumenthal Before He Dicks You
On the radio today, I head Connecticut Attorney General Dick "Is There a Camera Around I Can Jump in Front of?" Blumenthal declare: "The electrical industry in Connecticut is now a regulatory black hole."
Does the Dickster have any idea what a black hole is? Does he mean to say that the mass of regulation concerning the CT electrical industry is so dense that it will suck all nearby regulation into it?
Sign on the George Washington Bridge:
"Occupants must remain in disabled vehicles."
Is that supposed to be a definition or a law? If definition, it's true enough -- an occupant is someone who is in the vehicle. If a law, it's remarkably hard to find a violator -- someone who exits the vehicle is no loner an occupant, and so can go wherever they want!

Against all odds, Katniss has won the Hunger Games. She and fellow District 12 tribute Peeta Mellark are miraculously still alive. Katniss should be relieved, happy even. After all, she has returned to her family and longtime friend, Gale. Yet nothing is the way Katniss wishes it to be. Gale holds her at an icy distance. Peeta has turned his back on her completely. And there are whispers of a rebellion against the Capitol - a rebellion that Katniss and Peeta may have helped create.Much to her shock, Katniss has fueled an unrest she's afraid she cannot stop. And what scares her even more is that she's not entirely convinced she should try. As time draws near for Katniss and Peeta to visit the districts on the Capitol's cruel Victory Tour, the stakes are higher than ever. If they can't prove, without a shadow of a doubt, that they are lost in their love for each other, the consequences will be horrifying.In Catching Fire, the second novel of the Hunger Games trilogy, Suzanne Collins continues the story of Katniss Everdeen, testing her more than ever before... and surprising readers at every turn.
First Thoughts: As soon as I was done with The Hunger Games I put the jacket back on and shoved it in the box and immediately took out Catching Fire. The cover follows the same pattern of the first one with the Mockingjay, perfect representation of the books. I didn't even need to read the synopsis to want to read this but it is good and if someone picks it up they would definitely be interested in picking up the first book if they hadn't already.
Writing Style: The writing is pretty much the same as my first review. Still no complaints.
Characters: Katniss is still Katniss. She didn't let the Hunger Games destroy who she was and ends up fighting for her life as well as the people she loves again. This time it's more towards them than towards herself, she already considers herself marked for death and doesn't want to bring anyone down with her. She is courageous and strong. I love Peeta in this one more than the first. He knows the truth now but continues to stand by her side. No matter what happened in the first book he still loves her and will risk his life to save her.
Final Thoughts: Not as fantastic as the first one but it was still pretty awesome. I never expected all that to happen. I am still just thinking about it and just reeling. I can see why this series became such a hit and i can't wait to read the last one to see how all this comes together.

Have you gotten the visit for Olympic drug testing yet?
We've been on that program—USADA [United States Anti-Doping Agency]—for about a year, but I haven't gotten drug tested yet. They haven't come to my house yet, knock on wood …
Why knock on wood?
Well, just 'cause it's such a hassle. You have to give them a time—an hour every day when you will be at your house, and they can just show up whenever they want. I have seven to eight in the morning, so I know there's a good chance I'll be at home sleeping. But basically, they can come into your house and pretty much take over—totally exploit your space. I think I must be kind off the radar though, maybe because I've never been to the Olympics and never did too well in the Grand Prix.
How do you feel about your chances of making the Olympic team?
It's going to be tough, but I've definitely been trying to put the work in. No matter how you look at it, the U.S. is stacked and everybody knows that, but I feel like I've been focused on pipe for the last eight months or so. And it's tough to focus so much on that because I love to ride everything. But I feel like it's worth it to buckle down and take the time now and give it my all. I feel like after last season, I put myself in a good position to make it happen, which feels good, because last time around I wasn't ready.
And you've got some new tricks going into the season.
Well, yeah, you saw the New Zealand Open, everyone knows about the doubles. That's what's happening. And we had that pipe in Mammoth, so I got to learn a couple there. For me, it's just getting my head around those tricks, getting the rotation down—it's just fully committing to those new tricks. And it's so scary, just because I haven't really done these before—just the fact of doing two flips, it's pretty hectic … I feel like when doing a double on a jump it's a lot easier to save yourself, but in a pipe, there's such a small zone to land it right. You've gotta really dial that shit in. Mine aren't a hundred-percent dialed in yet, but …

Yes, the iron in breastmilk is absorbed better than most iron, but I will say that a lot of exclusively breastfed infants are a little anemic at one year. I'm a dietitian for WIC (women, infants, children nutrition program), and I see it more than I would have thought. We don't check the mother's iron at that point, it would be interesting to see how many mothers of anemic babies are anemic themselves--but most of the mothers weren't anemic postpartum.
I don't think you should stress about it too much, but it's not a bad idea to keep giving him a little bit of cereal, or else other iron rich foods as he gets older. If he doesn't like plain cereal, try mixing it with fruits and veggies that he does like. (This would also boost his calories, if you are concerned about that) As someone mentioned upthread, beans are a good source of iron, so hummus is good. My year-old niece loves black beans, so that would be a good idea when he is ready for finger foods. You could also give him baby food meat starting around 8 months, you can mix that with fruits and veggies too if he won't eat it plain (I wouldn't blame him for that, pureed meat is kind of gross!) Like I said, I don't think you should worry about it too much, but it is good to be aware of.
I think what you are doing is great. Breastfeed him when he wants, and then feed him solids a few times a day and let him eat what he wants. He'll be fine. Also, I would like to point out that 30th percentile is totally within the normal range for weight. Anything between 10th and 90th is fine, and unless he's dropped in percentile, he is just fine and there is nothing to worry about.

Mosquito Control
The Regional District's mosquito control program has been in place since 1974. From March to September each year, between 200 and 250 properties are checked for mosquitoes in Areas A, B, C, D, F, G, and H as well as Osoyoos, Oliver, Penticton, and Summerland.
Regional District technicians check stagnant (still) water bodies for mosquito larvae as well as for the predators that eat the larvae. Once each larval/predator is complete, larviciding sprays are applied where required.
In accordance with B.C. Ministry of Environment habitat guidelines, the RDOS uses Vectobac 200G, a 'non-toxic', 'organic' pesticide. Because each rainfall can lead to a new hatch of mosquitoes within a week, District staff try to check all properties that will likely produce mosquitoes each week.
The Regional District of Okanagan Similkameen has worked to implement integrated pest management (IPM) principles, and has developed appropriate principles and policies. For more information, please click on the links below.
2013 Pest Management Plan

Blind Boy Fuller
In spite of Fuller's recorded output, most of his musical life was spent as a street musician and house party favorite, and he possessed the skills to reinterpret and cover the hits of other artists as well. In this sense, he was a synthesizer of styles, parallel in many ways to Robert Johnson, his contemporary who died three years earlier. Like Johnson, Fuller lived fast and died young in 1942, only 33 years old. Fuller was a fine, expressive vocalist and a masterful guitar player best remembered for his uptempo ragtime hits "Rag Mama Rag," "Trucking My Blues Away," and "Step It Up and Go." At the same time he was capable of deeper material, and his versions of "Lost Lover Blues" and "Mamie" are as deep as most Delta blues. Because of his popularity, he may have been overexposed on records, yet most of his songs remained close to tradition and much of his repertoire and style is kept alive by North Carolina and Virginia artists today. ~ Barry Lee Pearson
