Philip and Cat's home: An Ikea shoe room and more
1. The Shoe Room
"I thought I might share the shoe room I built for my fiancée seeing as it drew a lot of interest when I first put photos of it up on Facebook.
While she was over the moon at having a room dedicated to her many shoes and boots, six months or so later and after we got engaged, I decided that she deserved better. So off to Ikea I went again. A few meatballs, a splash of paint and some wiring later and I'd upgraded her shoe room with lots of downlighters (Grundtal spotlights), glass shelves (Billy), a belt rail (I can't find the name) and a bag rail on the back of the door (Grundtal hanger).
While there's not really that much hacking going on here other than the tenuous hack link of using book shelves as shoe shelves, I figured it may be of interest to others and may inspire some other men to follow suit and in the process get an exorbitant number of brownie points with one's other half."
2. Bedroom Mirror
"My fiancée wanted to have a greenish theme to our bedroom and got a bed throw and some cushion covers to start things off. She wanted a big mirror to go over the bed's headboard but wanted it to have a hint of green and didn't really want it looking too modern. The rest of our house is very modern so she wanted something a bit 'older' looking for the bedroom. We got a Hemnes mirror from our favourite meatball suppliers and then modified it a little.
She painted the inner edge with some light green paint and then used some 'antiquing' paint on stuff that makes the paint under it crackle a little to give it the finish she wanted. It was very simple but we think it looks really nice now."
3. Hall Mirror
"For some reason the builders of our house thought the perfect place for a big ugly doorbell and the house's thermostat would be right in the middle of a big long corridor wall. In order to hide it, we bought two Molger mirrors (although we only needed one piece from the second pack). I simply mounted the mirror backwards in the frame and used the base piece from the second pack as a replacement top piece (since Ikea have it designed that you slide the mirror in from the top afterward so for our needs the top lip would have been missing).
I bought some hefty cupboard hinges from a local hardware store and a little metal L-bracket and mounted mounted the mirror to the wall. The hinges are more than strong enough to hold the mirror but I use the L bracket to hook the mirror on when closed so as to make sure that it is level. So now it just looks like a chunky mirror yet we can open it up to change the thermostat when we need to."
4. Under Stairs Storage
"Nothing groundbreaking here but since it involved using a dremel to cut metal it may be 'hackworthy'. Our house has a cupboard under the stairs on the ground floor. It didn't have any shelves in and had no lighting. Basically, it was an utter mess. Ikea didn't have anything that fit our needs. The Broder system was the closest match since it had shelves big enough but even in its shortest form, it was too tall. We bought a couple of shelves, three posts and a height extension rod and I cut the post lengths down to size so that we could fit in one long Broder deep shelf and one short one. I also added some faithful Grundtal spot lights which I wired in to the main lighting for the hallway. The end result is a far better use of space and is much cleaner looking than before."
5. Kitchen Storage
"This was by far the most work of the lot but definitely worth it in my opinion. The space above our fridge freezer had become a rather unsightly dumping ground for random bottles and general stuff. I wanted something far tidier looking and far more practical.
The answer came in the Pax shelf we had left over, lying in the garage left over from and from the many many plain white Billy shelves we've now got after I upgraded the better half's shoe room with glass shelves. After a lot of measuring I worked out that I could fit four Hutten wine racks on one side of the Pax shelf and I could use cut down Billy shelves on the other side to create some shelving. After putting it all together with some metal brackets from a local hardware store, I painted the wine racks, added a Grundtal countertop light (the same as throughout the rest of the kitchen) and bolted it to the walls with three very large heavy duty brackets.
One edge of the Pax shelf had MDF showing as did one of the inner edges of the Billy shelves. I used some white edging strips left over from when we redid the rest of the kitchen to cover these up and they fit perfectly. I'm really happy with the result and love the way the light works through all the different colours of bottles. Our cat, Molly, obviously helped me build the thing. She was obsessed with the sawdust for some bizarre reason.
I hope some of these may be able to inspire others. When you start to think about how you can hack things, walking around Ikea becomes even more fun. You start to see so many more uses for things than originally intended!"

ROut out a vent hole in the top and bottom of the mirror frame. Problem solved.
wow, all these ideas are so creative. i really like ikea furniture and sometimes decorate them myself. with wallpaper
pictures in my blog
love the shoe room! what is the ideal size of billy bookcase to use for shoe rack? thanks
Love the wine store, love the shoe room. Very inventive. My wife could do with a whole wing for shoes. She still only has two feet though..
I really like the wine storage with white backlight…
just cool………
Anonymous, I only just saw your post, sorry I didn't reply sooner.
140 pairs of shoes, sounds familiar! Is it shoes or boots? Shoes are certainly a lot easier to deal with since they're so much smaller! If you've got any spare wall space available then maybe you could use a few Benno type DVD/CD storage solutions. Using Benno as an example, you could store 140 pairs of shoes in about 2.5m worth of units assuming just one pair 'box' area. Or you could use Billys but have more shelves (this would probably involve drilling extra holes for the shelve mounts though, I don't know why they leave such big gaps).
F, I'm a one woman man I'm afraid! What kind of space are you dealing with? To make the most of space I'd probably start with a bunk bed or bed-over-desk type thing and modify it from there to make it fit just right. The MYDAl thing could be a good base to start with since it's unpainted wood if you modified the bottom bunk for other uses such as a desk space instead. The MÖRRUM and STORÅ loft bed frames also look very interesting.
That story about the Icelandic couple who installed a cheap Ikea kitchen in their million dollar apartment in New York cracked me up.. Rich people are so funny!
First of all does your wife lend you out? LOL Trying to convert an area of dead space into a sleeping and living area for a pre-teen grandson. Got any good ideas?
The shoe room!!
I have a serious problem… My girlfriend owns 140 pairs of shoes (yeah, srsly) and I try to figure out a good way to stash 'em as most them are never worn. Anybody got an idea? Space is the limiting factor.
Love the overfridge storage. That would have been handy in past homes, but our current kitchen has a lovely overhead cabinet with vertical dividers which is ideal for storing cookie sheets, muffin tins and a pizza stone and a large open spot perfect for less often used small appliances like waffle iron and slow cooker.
I am thinking our liquor situations could be handled with a hack for the several expedits we have. We need a wine rack and a scotch storage space. Wine glass storage would be good too. Have seen a couple of posts that might be helpful already!
Hi sma11cat!
Get yourself a dremel (either order online buy from most hardware stores). You can get them for about £30 in the UK, $45 in the US etc and they're perfect for hacking things up like this. Mark up the broder post with a pencil to the height you want to cut to on all four sides and then use the cutting disks (you'll use a fair few, I used about 3 disks per broder piece if I remember correctly) that come with the Dremel to gradually cut through. It takes a little while and will cause a lot of dust (probably best to wear some glasses and an air mask just in case) but it gets the job done. The cuts are pretty clean this way but if you wanted to round off the edges you can always use one of the other Dremel accessories to do so.
Hello! I am trying to cut the broder post as well and am wondering if you could offer any tips on how to cut, what tool to use, how to round off the edges at the end, etc.
beautiful! Thanks for the inspiration
Inspiring indeed. I love your house. You have an incredibly good taste and combine everything so well. Wow, your bedroom is sooo nice. And your closet is a dream of any woman. Seriously, your house is fab.
Awesome job!
w-o-w…cat is a super lucky lady!
i really like the ideas, thanks for the nice article, ikea!
Thanks for all the feedback everyone!
Thanks DJinny, I think I might just do that and add an extra hook rack in the middle of the door under the other one. I might also do the same under the belt rail on the left of the room. I found another stash of handbags in the spare room after taking those photos so could do with the extra space!
AJ, it's a Samsung fridge, the model number is RSH1DBRS although that was a year and a bit ago so there are probably newer ones now. We love it, just bear in mind that you'll have to run a thin water pipe to the back of the fridge so as to supply the ice machine and water water chiller.
Mr Magic, the wallpaper was from Focus, a DIY store that I'd never heard of before. They've got a great selection of wallpaper and stores all over the place. Here's the wallpaper we got: http://www.focusdiy.co.uk/Country-Designs/Arthouse-Sara-Duck-Egg-Wallpaper/invt/247419 I'm afraid we don't have a virtual tour of the house although I'm very flattered that you asked! The rest is still a work in progress – plenty more trips to IKEA needed!
Wow! Can I get a boyffriend like you in an IKEa store? it would come very handy! lol! you impressed me quite a lot!
Really like the wallpaper in the bedroom… where did you get it from? (I'm UK too…)
Do you have a house tour set of pics somewhere, like flickr or picasa?
Very cool hacks…
Marry the man instantly CAT! I posted this to my girlfriends and that is what they said.. and the omg the shoe collection is gorgeous was the other
great job!! Hubby isnt a handyman
Phil – that's awesome. What brand of fridge do you have? I'll be shopping for one soon.
I love the above fridge storage – I have the same problem and the same fridge so will be trying that one out thanks.
Great shoe room – if I didn't already have 2 full pax shoe drawers I'd do that one too!
My girl friend would love the Shoe Room. Nice decoration.
You so creative and it loks so awesome
Hey Caitlin, thanks for catching the typo. Corrected.
something i do so my purses dont all clogged up like that is that i put another hook rack about at the middle of the door… that way i have two rows, and i put the longer ones in the bottom… i can close the door properly, and in your case, when you want to go in the closet!!
very good ideas, of course that shoe room is dreamy!
For the thermostat problem, you can drill little holes arround the mirrors, or something like that…
Thanks for the inspiration!
Amazing! I have a feeling Phil would be getting marriage proposals left & right if he weren't already engaged. Awesome job.
And no, I don't think she has too many pairs of shoes. Different outfits, different styles…I'm sure some of the boots are comfy ones she can wear all day & some are for going out where she knows she won't have to walk very far (and of course those are always the hottest ones!).
OMG how many pairs of boots and purses does that woman have?!
Caitlin, you're right – egg on my face.
Really nice!! I really love the look of the wine bottle storage!
Though Phil, since you mention "she", you have a fiancée, not a fiancé. A fiancé is a male that is engaged to be married (in this case, you) while a fiancée is a female that is engaged to be married.
Can you get prices for these walkin wardrobes and where can i get wlkin wardrobes like on this web site http://www.walkinwardrobestore.com
AJ, I checked the temperatures up there before I built the thing. The fridge freezer is only a year old and is pretty darned energy efficient. I've put my hand in the gap behind the fridge and above it and there's no heat there. In fact, if anything, the top face of the fridge (which is aluminium) is actually cooler than the rest of the room. I wouldn't have done this with the fride we had in our old house though, it was as hot as a radiator on the back.
Great work !!!
Thanks for sharing
Very nice hacks! Love the shoe room – may do something for my GF when we move into our new place.
I am slightly concerned about putting the bottle rack above the fridge though…after all, that is where the heat from the coils on the back of the fridge rises to (and it can get QUITE warm up there, especially if boxed in – I've had loaves of bread go moldy in just a day because of that)), and frankly that heat will ruin any decent wine. Not sure about the heat stability of liquors, spirits etc, but I can't think it's very good for them, either.
this is awesome. cat is a very lucky girl.
Thanks everyone! I'm really happy with how all the hacks turned out, I really hope these can inspire people to do similar things. I know a lot of people have small cupboard type walk in rooms for storage in their houses – the shoe room idea would work in pretty much all of them and is pretty simple (albeit time consuming) to do. The trickiest part of the shoe room build was getting the double width billy shelves through the door – I had to half assemble it in the room whilst upright. :-S
Justin and Barb, I know the thermostat won't work quite as well. However, it's never been that accurate anyway and a 5 degree change won't make much of a difference to it. Our house is pretty warm already and we hardly ever have the heating on. When we do use it it tends to be a case of being on for an hour at max and then off again. The thermostat never really had a chance before to detect the change in temperature in time. We haven't noticed any problems so far. If, for some reason, it does end up playing up then I'll drill a line of holes in the bottom and top of the mirror casing so as to allow the air to circulate more.
Anonymous 1, trust me, I'm the lucky one to be marrying her, she's definitely the better half in my opinion!
Anonymous 2, she doesn't own *that* many….. well ok maybe she does. None of them are ridiculously expensive though, not high end designer expensive. Most of them are pretty cheap – she just likes having them. In comparison, I have two pairs of shoes that I alternate between. There's a similar ratio going on in terms of clothes. I get one single width Pax wardrobe half filled with drawers. She gets a double width Pax wardrobe, a six drawer Malm chest and a fair amount of spillover space in the spare bedroom's wardrobe. Then again, the ratio is inverted when it comes to gadgets and macs. The garage, attic and my office are full of all sorts of electronics!
Cat owns ways too many shoes.
What Justin said.
Thermostats contain sensors that measure the air temperature surrounding them, and judge whether your heat (or a/c) should be activated according to that temperature. It's particularly important if you have a setback thermostat.
Lovely hacks, overall. The shoe closet is a joy to behold.
Your thermostat won't work correctly if it isn't ventilated properly. It probably thinks the room is 5 degrees hotter than it actually is.
This comment has been removed by the author.
I love all these "hacks". Wish my handyman hubby had some time to do some around our house.
cat – marry him now, like today
Those are incredibly inspiring!
Especially that shoe room. If it's one thing I own a lot of, it's shoes and clothes..

Wow love this Candy
Sep 3, 2017 | By Dawn
My friends and I love this. One day me and friend eat 1 box that day. Your kids love it
Absolutely delicious!
Nov 10, 2016 | By Evagelia Lyras
These are the best! I do not like candy canes but I buy them every year for my students and they just love them. They look forward to them and they start asking me if I will get them again this year. They all say that these are much better than "regular" candy canes. I do wish the miniature ones would once again be available - they were much more cost effective for me since I buy a bunch so that each kid gets one.
Dec 4, 2014 | By Elisabeth Wilkins
I am so happy to have found these here...thank you Natural Candy Store for bringing in corn-free treats so my child can have "separate but equal" treatment during the holidays. It makes her feel included, when so many aspects of ALL holidays revolve around food, this is one thing she can have that looks just like all the other kids'. Yes, the mint taste is mild. That makes them more kid-friendly, and I prefer them as well.
Jan 29, 2014 | By Renee
The candy canes have a mild peppermint flavor combined with a strawberry cotton candy flavor. The level of sweetness in just right with it being towards the low end. The box never made it to the party as me and my son devoured them.
barely perceptible mint flavor
Dec 26, 2012 | By Heidi
I am happy about these being organic and natural. I am willing to pay more if organic peppermint oil is expensive. The Pure Fun brand of peppermint candy was much better, but, alas, they can no longer be found. I wish there were an enhanced flavor option. I can't do the Red #40 and titanium dioxide, so I wonder if I'll have to do without peppermint candy.
Dec 17, 2012 | By C
2.5 stars. I can almost not taste the peppermint at all-- they do have a nice smooth, mellow sweetness, but... no peppermint! That is key to a candy cane! Also, some bites had a funny aftertaste I think from the brown rice. Finally, they are distinctly pink, actually a funny sort of mauve color. They will not look like "everyone else's" candy canes. The included mango chili lollipop I got as a free sample was awesome though :)
love it

Just Fabulous
Nov 23, 2011 | By Littlebear Yellowbanks
I like that these canes are vegan.My loves these canes because they are sweet n mint,not bitey.The hint of mint and the syrupy brown rice make these canes over the top in all ways.
Best Candy Canes
Nov 21, 2011 | By Jennifer J.
These are our favorite candy canes! My kids, who don't like spicy candy canes, love these. The mint is just right. It's subtle and delicious and not too strong! These are very addicting.
Jan 15, 2011 | By Zadu
These are too much sweetness without any cooling pepermint. Don't get me wrong. These are delicious candy canes but I think they missed the most important ingredient of what makes a candy cane special. Pepermint oil. There's only some very mild flavor of pepermint along with other delicious flavors that would complement nicely if there was real pepermint oil added. Then these would be a 5 on the rating scale
I love these Candy Canes!
Dec 4, 2010 | By Leah Price
These are the best candy canes I have ever had. They smell just as good as they taste. I am so grateful they are organic, gluten free, and red dye free. I didn't know how we were going to have Christmas without candy canes. My son has already eaten two boxes and I've had to hide the rest from him. Delicious!!
Perfect Pink!
Apr 13, 2010 | By Cindy
These are fantastic! The kids love them, they're just the right size. I'm only giving it a 4 because it is more pink than red, so the kids notice that slight difference. Other than that - perfect! A Christmas re-order must every year!
Pretty Yum
Dec 18, 2009 | By Liz
I found these not NEARLY as strongly mint flavored as regular candy canes and lacking that, as another reviewer said, "peppermint punch" which I found myself missing as I'm fond of candy canes/starlights. However, these were quite surprisingly good. The flavor was much more mellow and subtle, even. Didn't completely satisfy my peppermint craving, but they tided me over. And the texture was identical to standard candy canes. While the taste was decent, due to how pricy these are, I would only recommend these to someone who had allergies or certain dietary restrictions; they're quadruple the cost of regular candy canes in the height of the holiday season.
Our Candy Canes!
Nov 30, 2009 | By East Coaster
I am rating these a four only because if you are used to regular candy canes, you will notice a slight difference. These don't have quite as much of the peppermint punch. However, these are delicious, and our children love them! Due to a combination of food allergies and healthy choices, these are our candy canes of choice!
Oct 2, 2009 | By Kris
We love these delicious candy canes. Thank you for providing such a healthy alternative that tastes better than the unhealthy ones.
Best ever!
Jan 4, 2009 | By Laurie
Having a child with dye allergies certainly is challenging at times. Finding these candy canes was perfect! Our entire family enjoyed them very much. So wonderful to find Pure Fun products, nice to know a company actually cares about goodness.
Merry Christmas!
Dec 25, 2008 | By Jacobsen Books
Delicious, sweet peppermint flavor with rose pink stripes. This delicious, naturally colored candy looks handmade.
Dec 18, 2008 | By Michael
These things were pretty awesome. They taste similar to commercial candy canes, but are much more smooth in texture and taste. I was happy to actually have candy canes that did not make me sick :) Also, they're fun to swirl in your mouth.

BRU Workstation, BRU Desktop, and BRU Personal Edition are the high-performance UNIX backup and recovery utilities designed for maximum reliability, speed, flexibility, and ease of use.By making UNIX backups easy, fast, and safe, it's much more than just a replacement for typical backup utilities.
BRU is a complete solution with a multitude of options. BRU has provided "Backup You Can Trust" for UNIX systems since 1985, and for Linux systems since 1994.Your data is your most valuable computing asset.Feel confident knowing your data can be reliably restored when using BRU.
Exceptional Reliability
-Data Verification.BRU ensures that your backup is correct by verifying archives in two different ways, using checksums or by performing a bit-by-bit comparison with the original file in contrast to tar-based solutions.
-Anytime Verify� allows you to re-verify your data at anytime.
-Error Detection and Recovery.BRU detects and recovers from most errors that occur while reading or writing.Unlike other utilities which stop on errors, BRU makes several attempts to read and recover the maximum amount of data from damaged archives.
-AUTOSCAN�Verification.BRU will automatically scan each archive tape and verify it for errors immediately after it is written.Customer-proven detection of problems caused by hardware or software errors works like an "early warning system" to detect problems before they become serious-like a tape drive that is just starting to fail.
-Sparse Files.BRU will properly backup and restore large sparse files.
-Long Pathnames.BRU will backup and restore files with pathnames up to 1023 characters long.This is useful for networked systems or for filesystems with deep directories.100 characters is the limit of other backup utilities.
-Automatic Execution Logging.Because backups are serious business, you want to know immediately if anything went wrong.BRU automatically writes any warning/error messages to a special execution log file.The file also contains time-stamps of when BRU started and stopped.
Complete Flexibility
-Quick File Access (QFA) on select platforms provides faster access to files on tape to shorten restore times.
-Unattended Backups.A special background mode lets you schedule BRU to run under cron, allowing backups to be performed overnight.
-Support For Any Type of Device.BRU is device-independent and works with any native OS supported storage device.If your system can see it, BRU can write to it.
-Handles Special Files.BRU will backup and restore all types of files, including special device files, links (symbolic and hard), pipes, empty directories - all the files that are skipped by utilities like tar.BRU will backup and restore every file on your disk.
-Faster Crash Recovery.Since BRU will backup and restore all files, this saves time and makes it easier to restore your system in the event of a crash.
-CRU� (Crash Recovery Utility) creates custom boot disks to easily manage a bare metal total system restore.CRU is available for Intel Linux and SCO versions.
-Protective File Restore.Restores files only from the backup tape that is newer - protects you by NOT overwriting files that have been recently updated (unless you force it to overwrite all files).
-Easy Integration.Dozens of options and environment variables make it easy to include BRU as a shell script or menu system.With BRU, you can do backups your way - exactly how you want to do them.
-Point-and-click interface for file and directory level backup and restore, fully scriptable from the command line.
-Translate-on-Restore�.Rename or move files when restoring.
-Root-only Restore.Restores just the files in the root directory, excluding files from other filesystems.
-Smart Restore�.Restore active shared library and executable binary files without crashing the system.
-Multiple Volume Archives.With BRU, archives can span more than one tape, allowing you to do backups of any size.
-Faster Backups.BRU is "tunable" for peak performance, so you can run your tape drive at its maximum rated speed.
-Back Up Live Filesystems.It's not necessary to go into single-user mode.
You can backup all the mounted filesystems or choose individual filesystems.
-Incremental/Differential Backups.Sometimes you don't want to back up everything.You can save time (and tape) by backing up only the files that have changed.Other options let you select by owner or type of file.
-Raw Data Partitions.Backup and restore raw data partitions (often used by database programs like Oracle).
-Select by Directory Depth.With this option, you can specify how many directory levels you want, which enables you to backup or restore ONLY the files in a directory, but NOT the files in the directories below it.
-Include/Exclude Files.You can direct BRU to include or exclude certain files or directories in a backup (or restore).By specifying certain patterns (wildcard or regular expressions), you can perform customized backups.
-Data Compression.BRU can save space on your archive tape by compressing data as part of the backup operation.Files are usually compressed by 10% to 90% (depending on the type of data).Like all BRU data, the compressed files are saved in a special error-detection format.Compression is done in memory (no temporary disk space is used), so files of any size can be compressed. BRU speeds up the backup by not attempting to compress files that are already compressed.
-Works with all tape drive formats, removable disk technology, disk-files, MO, DVD and more.
Smaller Network Support*
-Network Backups.BRU supports many different network protocols, including NFS, SMB and NetAtalk.BRU also properly backs up filenames that include strange characters and spaces*.
-Remote Tape Drives.Write backup data across the network to a tape drive located on another machine*.
Reliable Tape Management

Gevalt! My fundamental human right to practise my religion without government interference has been violated! I raise my voice, or more realistically, I press my computer keys in protest and indignation.
My outrage is directed at the abolition of the one-cent coin. The penny, like the ancient "pruta," is to be no more.
Jews associate their daily prayer services with the giving of tzedakah. In my synagogue, the Adath Israel Congregation, as in almost every shul, a pushke, a charity box, is circulated during the service so that the worshippers, while praying for their own needs, may perform a meritorious deed by giving a little to charity. It is a token gift, requiring no cheque or credit card, though I must mention that one of our daily worshippers drops a five-dollar bill into the box each morning.
My contribution is much more modest. Like the majority of our worshippers, I extricate some coins from my pocket. However, the amount of my small gift is calculated on the basis of "gematria," the numerical values of a Hebrew word that guide my gift in a mystical way.
I take out my coins and combine several coins to amount to 36 cents, which is twice "chai," "life," a silent prayer for life and health for my wife and me. Or I may find a quarter and three pennies, for 28 or "koach," strength, a blessing that I certainly need. Sometimes I make it 32 cents, the number value of "lev," the heart, symbolizing my prayer for the health of my heart that I cannot take for granted.
So you see that I need pennies. I cannot do without one-cent coins. I can compose 30 with a quarter and a nickel, and 30 is "lamed," which is a word related to learning and teaching, but I need a little more choice.
I therefore appeal to the government to rescind this haughty abolition of the humble penny. If that is not possible, then I demand the introduction of a new 18-cent coin, to be called the "chai," possibly with the images of Queen Esther and Mordechai (not the editor of The CJN).) I will then use two of these every morning for double chai, or as an alternative, combine one new coin with a dime for 28 which means "koach", strength. Or I would combine our new coin with three dimes, so that it would amount to "moach," brains, and that's something we all need.
Happy Purim!
Rabbi Erwin Schild is rabbi emeritus at Adath Israel Congregation in Toronto.

Challenge: Use A Visual Triangle
Deadline: March 10, 2009
This week we're going to take a fresh look at that time-tested design principle: the visual triangle. From the beginning of design, visual triangles have been one of the easiest ways to achieve a balanced layout. A visual triangle is the placement of related visual elements (whether photos, embellishments or colors) at three separate points to form a triangle. This placement helps the eye travel around the page and unifies individual elements to create a cohesive design. So on your next layout, we want to see you put this tried and true design principle to good use.
Upload your layout(s) on or before March 10 to the Simply Inspired gallery. Feel free to leave a comment here as well and link us up to your creations. One winner will receive a $10 gift certificate to the DD store and get his or her layout published in the DSM Wire!
Winner's Circle
Congratulations to last months Simply Inspired winner, Ashley Kennedy! Ashley won a $10 gift certificate to the Designer Digitals store for this gorgeous layout of her adorable little boy. Way to go, Ashley!

Greetings all,
Sorry for all of my questions, and I'm sure this one has been addressed before. I wish to take Jukai this winter, but I currently eat meat. I do not hunt or fish, nor have I ever done either of those things. If I do wish to take the precepts, should I cease in eating meat? Though it would be difficult for me at first (and definitely annoy my wife to no end), I would stop eating meat if needs be. Thanks everyone.

Highland Park 12
Review: Highland Park 12 year old Scotch Whisky (94.5/100)
A Review by Chip Dykstra (Aka Arctic Wolf)
Posted on November 19, 2009
The 12 Year Old Highland Park Whisky is the core expression of Highland Park Distillery, that is to say, it is their flagship brand. Highland Park prides itself in not making any compromises when making whisky. The twelve year expression is the youngest in their impressive lineup. All of Highland Park whiskies are matured in Spanish and American Oak in warehouses with earthen floors and stone walls. The combination of different oak provides some of the whisky with an American whiskey enhancement and some of the whisky with a Spanish sherry enhancement. The whisky is matured in a cool consistent climate, and blended to create the unique Highland Park taste and character that the distillery is famous for.
Of particular note is the heather rich meadows which provide a rich floral backdrop around the aging warehouses which seems to impart its character to the whisky as well. I note the floral character in the review.
In the Bottle 5/5
I really like to take the Highland park whisky off my shelf to show my friends. The twelve year old comes in an oval shaped black cardboard sleeve. The back of the sleeve contains a variety of advertising/informational highlights which kind of whets the appetite for what is inside. The front of the box is labeled in white, silver and orange lettering. But what I like most is the fancy glyph (Highland park logo) which is printed onto the front of the container.
The bottle itself is adorned with a simple but professional label and has that same glyph embossed onto the bottom half of the bottle under the label. A solid high density cork finishes the presentation.
In the Glass 9/10
When I was young, I would have to wake up early in the mornings and walk about a mile into the pastureland to bring the cows home for milking. Our pasture was in a lowland muddy creek bottom, where the soil was rich in peat and sawgrass. I smell that boggy muddy creek bottom in the glass when I fill it with Highland Park whisky. It is not an intense boggy smell, just a whisper of that muddy creek and sawgrass meadow rising from the glass. I smell the willow thicket, and a faint floral scent which I am told is heather. This is the aroma of the Orcadian peat of which Highland Park is famous for.
The whisky has a nice gold colour, with very little oil to impart on the sides of the glass. A faint vanilla and caramel rise from the glass as well and the combination mixes into the floral organic peat. The entire experience in the glass is wonderful. I know the average person reading this will question my sanity, but trust me that boggy muddy floral whisky note is just what I need on the cold winter nights in Canada.
In my Mouth 57/60
This is so elegant and well balanced that I have a hard time describing the experience. We have a honeyed, floral whiskey resting in a boggy meadowland pasture. The mouth is soft and buttery, with faint wisps of caramel, sweet honey, and hot spicy oak tannin. This is rich and luxurious, yet it constantly reminds me of that simpler time back home early in the morning walking through boggy fields of farmland.
In my Throat 13.5/15
The buttery texture of the whiskey gives a longer finish than one might expect. The floral peat has a tendency to turn ashy in the throat, but the honey and caramel mingle with this ash making the experience far nicer than what I can describe. The colder the evening, the better this experience is for me.
The Afterburn 10/10
It is hard when one uses terms like: boggy, ash, and farmland pasture, to give the reader a sense for how divine this whisky is. One has to be initiated in the 'Brotherhood of the Bog' to understand how these are good things for a Scotch Whisky. The whisky is much more than words can describe, and I consider the Highland Park 12 year to be one of the premier whiskies that I have tasted.
You may read some of my other Whisky Reviews (click the link) if you wish to have some comparative reviews.
As always you may interpret the scores I provide as follows.
0-25 A spirit with a rating this low would actually kill you.
26-49 Depending upon your fortitude you might actually survive this.
50 -59 You are safe to drink this…but you shouldn't.
60-69 Substandard swill which you may offer to people you do not want to see again.
70-74 Now we have a fair mixing rum or whisky. Accept this but make sure it is mixed into a cocktail.
75-79 You may begin to serve this to friends, again probably still cocktail territory.
80-84 We begin to enjoy this spirit neat or on the rocks. (I will still primarily mix cocktails)
85-89 Excellent for sipping or for mixing!
90-94 Definitely a primary sipping spirit, in fact you may want to hoard this for yourself.
95-97.5 The Cream of the Crop
98+ I haven't met this bottle yet…but I want to.
Very loosely we may put my scores into terms that you may be more familiar with on a Gold, Silver, and Bronze medal scale as follows:
70 – 79.5 Bronze Medal (Recommended only as a mixer)
80 – 89.5 Silver Medal (Recommended for sipping and or a high quality mixer)
90 – 95 Gold Medal (Highly recommended for sipping and for sublime cocktails.)
95.5+ Platinum Award (Highest Recommendation)

good review. I just bought a bottle on Saturday, but it hasn't revealed itself to me yet (for lack of a better phrase). It doesn't yet seem as complicated as I have been reading it is, and it appears light-bodied in comparison to the Bruichladdich Rocks I had been enjoying previously. Still, I often find it takes me time to decide whether I like a whisky or not.
February 13, 2011 at 12:21 am
Highland Park 12 is my Scotch Whiskey of choice.
At first I wasn't sure I liked it, I couldn't get over that oily turpentine flavor. But I gave it a week as I had read that it may need to breath a bit once the cork was pulled. Maybe it was the breathing time or maybe my mind decided to force the taste the smoked peat but suddenly the smokey, peaty and sweet flavors started to show up. In reading your review you mentioned the willow thicket and it hit me as to what the sweet flavor is to me – flowering dogwood. Thanks for the hint I needed!
August 16, 2010 at 2:14 pm
Senor Francisco, let me check with the folks in Mexico and I will post any info I find. Thanks for your support!
July 23, 2010 at 10:23 am
Where can I get at Mexico City the Whisky "Highland Park 25 Y.O."?
July 9, 2010 at 6:40 am
I agree with Canadian Thistle. HP 18 year is one of my favorites (at least the bottle I had 2 years ago). the 25 yr tha I had last year was really smokey and rich in aroma. A little too mellow of a taste, but the aroma carried it well.
June 25, 2010 at 6:04 pm
Good review. Additionally, the HP 18 is likely one of the most rounded and well-crafted whiskies I've ever encountered.

Graduates celebrate milestone with family and friendsMay 14, 2012
Cheers with some air horns added in filled William Lindsay White Auditorium in Emporia on Saturday morning as undergraduates crossed the stage to collect their diplomas from Emporia State University. At the same time, graduate degrees were presented in Albert Taylor Hall on the Emporia State campus.
Nearly 600 students were candidates for bachelor's degrees. Another 283 were candidates for graduate degrees. The threat of inclement weather moved the ceremonies from Welch Stadium. But the move didn't diminish the air of celebration for the family and friends of those receiving their bachelor's degrees at White.
"On behalf of the faculty and administration, I extend our congratulations to you," said Dr. Michael D. Shonrock, overseeing his first commencement ceremony as Emporia State president. "We look forward to your future achievements as you continue your careers and graduate education."
Lana Oleen, chair of the Emporia State University Foundation board of trustees, advised the students on three essential items to pack into their backpacks as they embark on the next chapter of their lives. Oleen, who earned both a bachelor's and master's degree from Emporia State, taught 12 years in the classroom — and was named a Kansas Master Teacher — before being elected a Kansas state senator. She served in the senate or six years, including as Kansas Senate Majority Leader, and now owns Lana Oleen Consulting.
Energy was the first item to pack, Oleen said, noting that much energy is given away through work, family commitments and other priorities.
"Remember, even if you fall flat on your face from time to time, you are still moving forward," she said.
Each student should pack the skill set learned during their time at Emporia State, said Oleen, who told she learned to actively listen, continually think, encourage collaboration and to speak in public.
These skills that were so useful in the classroom were equally useful in the Kansas Senate, she added.
Finally, Oleen told the graduates, remember to take understanding with them.
"Understand what it takes to live happy and successful in today's world," she said. "No matter where you started, we need you to participate in the future we all share."

2ND XI: Small lead for Sussex going into Day Two17-May-2012
Sussex's Second Eleven took a first innings lead after Day One of their Second Eleven Championship match against Kent at Arundel yesterday.
After Kent won the toss and elected to bat they were dismissed for 141 as opening bowlers Amjad Khan and Will Adkin both claimed three wickets apiece.
Craig Young and debutant Tim Miles also picked up two wickets each whilst Luke Wright bowled four overs on his return to action for Sussex. Visiting skipper Sam Northeast was top-scorer for Kent with 31.
Andy Hodd (57) made a half-century opening the batting for Sussex but Adkin and Machan at number three both failed to score.
Wright (29), Wernars (36) and Beer (24) all chipped in through the middle order but no later batsman managed to make double figures and the hosts were bowled out for 166, a lead of 25 going into the second day. Simon Cook did the damage with the ball for Kent, taking 4 for 44.
Entrance is FREE at Arundel for Days Two and Three with play beginning at 11.00am

Obstetric forceps, India, before 1936
Obstetrical forceps are a standard instrument used during childbirth. They have a long history. They grip the baby's head and assist its progress down the birth canal. The forceps blades are designed with two curves: the cephalic curve fits the child's head and the pelvic curve corresponds to the curve of the mother's pelvis. Many modern examples slot together at the handle. However, this Indian set comes in two parts.

"Disturbia" singer Rihanna has plenty to be disturbed about. A man was recently caught walking on the roof of her house, according to TMZ, and his name isn't Chris Brown.
In an effort to protect RiRi from the potential threat, the singer's lawyers went to court and filed a temporary restraining order. Now the man, named Robert Melanson, is ordered to stay 100 yards away from Rihanna, her house or her place of business, so we suppose he won't be going to any RiRi gigs any time soon.
Melanson was found up on Rihanna's roof with a map of her property on June 17. Once in custody, he was put on a psychiatric hold, but released two day later. According to the legal papers filed by RiRi's attorneys, Melanson has a criminal history and is unstable. Her lawyers will try to make the restraining order permanent on July 10, but restraining orders only work if the authorities catch the offending person violating the order before they do harm to their intended target.
Rihanna's been on tour in Europe for the last few weeks, so she's safe from Melanson for now. Maybe when she returns home — after wrapping her July 28 date in Helsinki, Finland — she can hire her old friend Breezy to protect her. According to Rihanna and Frank Ocean, he knows how to throw down.

My vet told me that for a cat to lose a pound in a year is a lot. Oscar lost a bit over that in 7 months or so!
Got a laser pointer? What's their favourite toy?
"To begin, begin." ~William Wordsworth
Could stress caused by Lilly be part of this problem? Stress can manifest itself in many ways. Maybe Lilly chased her and during the chase Luna stepped wrong and hurt herself. Just a guess.
Proud to be a crazy cat lady!
Oops, I thought I had replied to the last two posts here, but obviously it doesn't show...
Anyway, her favourite toy IS a laser pointer, and I just got her a new one because the old one was broken. But she prefers watching the red point instead of chasing it...
And yes, I think she's stressed because of Lily. But a few weeks ago, I started doing clicker training with Lily, and it really seems to be working! I mean, she's still bullying Luna every now and then, but not that much, and Luna is visibly relaxed, even started playing a little (which she hasn't done since Lily moved in!).
Luna's medical condition has also slightly improved, but she is still on pain meds. Her back legs still give in, but apart from that, she's walking very well. My vet thinks it's some kind of nerve damage.
We're having a vet appointment on Wednesday. She's having a wart at her neck which has grown and which I want to be removed, and for this, she's going to be sedated. At that occasion, she's going to have the x-ray shot of her back and will be getting some blood work done (we're overdue with that). She will also undergo a dental cleaning if needed.
Please keep her in your thoughts, as I'm really nervous about the anaesthesia. After all, she's a senior of 13 years! And I also fear the result of her blood work; I hope her kidneys, liver and pancreas are still working fine. I really hate to put her through all this, I know she will be so scared and being sedated will make her feel so miserable for the rest of the day. But I know all this needs to be done sooner or later, so why not now? Hope I'm doing the right thing...
You're just being a caring, loving, cat mom. Nothin' wrong about that! I'm glad Luna is doing better. I know how you feel about the anaesthesia. I had to have Mac put under last summer to have some work done. I voiced my concern to my vet and she told me that if a kitty is reasonably healthy, even a senior kitizen, they handle it pretty well. Mac and Ming both came out of it fine. Ming would get a little growly for awhile and Mac just rebounded and was fine within an hour. I hope everything goes well with Luna.
Proud to be a crazy cat lady!
Thank you! Well, I guess it's just normal that we're worried, but I just hate to put her at any risk. On the other hand, her last blood work is a few years ago, so I'm beginning to feel I'm not caring enough for her well-being. It's just so complicated with her because it's impossible to get blood from her when she's not sedated. I really hope she'll be fine! One of my mom's friends once had a cat that underwent a dental cleaning. The cat was 15 years old and in chronic renal failure, and he did not wake up from anaesthesia. He just passed away, it's been such a shock. For some reason, I always have this poor kitty in mind when it comes to sedation.
Can they give her a local anesthesia instead of putting her under for the procedure?
I've Been Frosted
Yay, Lily for doing well with the clicker training! Big prayers for Luna's up-coming vet visit! I am sending tons of cyber hugs, lovies and snuggles to Lily and Luna
I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!
Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!

Kirsten, what a wonderful, loving cat mom you are! We are praying and sending warm wishes that Luna's vet visit goes well. That is great that you are getting all this work done now. I'm sure your vet will be very careful with the anesthesia.
My 20+ -year-old girl Poppaea just had dental treatment a couple of weeks ago. I was concerned about the anesthesia at her age, too. The vet was on top of that situation. He gave her the minimal amount needed, found she had huge tartar buildup on all four quadrants of front teeth, and cleaned that all off along with removing one tooth that needed to go. Poppaea went through the procedure just fine!
I'm so glad that Lily's clicker training is working and she is not tormenting Luna anywhere near as often as she used to. Well done, Kirsten and Lily (and Luna too)!

Kirsten, I hope all is going well. They have really soft anesthesia these days. Filou had a dental cleaning a half year before he passed away and he really did well and was only sleeping for half an hour or so.
I am so excited to hear about Lily's clicker training. I will have to check it out!
Thank you so much for keeping my Luna in your thoughts, and for wishing her luck!
Here's an update on our vet visit yesterday. My apologies for not replying sooner, but I felt really worn yesterday, and it's been a rough day. After we had no summer and no springtime at all this year, we suddenly found ourselves in the middle of a brutal heatwave, starting the day before yesterday, and the night before our vet appointment, I did not sleep at all because it's been way too warm in my flat. During the night, I thought I'd have to cancel the appointment because I thought I wouldn't be able to drive the next morning, I was dizzy and tired.
When the morning came, I decided to take the trip to the vet, nonetheless. Luna got her sedation at 9 a.m., and I picked her up at 10.30 a.m. She had her wart removed, her teeth cleaned, her bloodwork done and her x-ray shot taken. It showed some trouble in her lower spine; two intervertebral spaces don't look as wide as they should, so it's very likely that this is causing her problems. This more or less confirmed what I had expected and what my gut feeling has been telling me all the time. But the good thing is, her inner organs looked fine in the shot. Now I'm nervously waiting for the results of her blood work which I hope to get tomorrow morning.
Luna was still sleeping when I picked her up, and I left her in her carrier until the late afternoon. When she stepped out, she was still dizzy and barely able to walk. As expected, this scared the hell out of Lily, who started hiding and howling. Any time she spotted Luna, she started hissing (apart from this, she has never been hissing in her entire life); she's really freaking out. The three of us spent a horrible night with 85 degrees in our flat.
Today, Luna still seems to be exhausted, but it could be the heat as well. Lily is depressed and barely leaves the top of the cabinet. She's not even eating, and any time Luna is crossing her path, she starts hissing again, but it's less aggressive than yesterday. I hope that tomorrow, things will be back to normal. In similar situations, it took two days until Lily was back to her normal self, I think by that time, the anaesthetic is out of Luna's system. And this afternoon, we had a thunderstorm which cleared the air a bit, making us feel so much better!
Tomorrow at 11 a.m., I'll call the vet's office for the result of the blood test, so please wish us luck again. I know that Luna's blood count is always weird (Lily has the same abnormalties), and it always makes me nervous to hear about that.
Here are some pics, the first one shows Luna in her box at the vet's, lying on a electric blanket to keep her warm:
And this was Luna last night, still looking very drugged:
This was Lily, growling and howling at Luna:

Prayers for a good bloodwork result. Is there anything the can do about the discs?

Stacey Dombrowsky didn't know she wanted to become a therapist until she found herself facing some major life challenges.
"Growing up, I always thought that I just didn't know how to stop eating," said the 37-year-old psychoanalyst and addictions counsellor. "It was debilitating, and it disabled me."
She said her addiction to food became an obsession to the point where she wasn't able to work, and at times, she felt as though she couldn't survive with the addiction.
But then she found a miracle, she said. "I realized I have so much to offer the world – how would I overcome what I'm facing?" She sought help to work through her addiction, and eventually recovered by the time she was 32, but she said it took years and many different methods of treatment before she was able to face her own addiction.
These days, Dombrowsky has been devoting her life to helping people with their problems, partly through her own private practice in Markham, Ont., where she treats patients with a variety of issues. For example, her patients might have a drug addiction or an eating disorder, but they might also be facing depression or anxiety. Others are simply looking for support or advice about their personal or professional lives.
Over the past few months, she has expanded the number of people she can help through a weekly live call-in show on Rogers TV called Mind Matters, which she has been producing and hosting since September. On the show, she has guests – experts in different fields – and together, they answer viewers' questions based on a given theme each week.
The themes range a lot – from depression to eating disorders, and even dream analysis. Dombrowsky said she believes she has the ability to help with any of these issues partly because she has formally studied some of these areas – for example, she studied addictions at McMaster University – but also because she has experienced a similar problem firsthand.
Treating patients over the phone brings its own challenges, she said. "I don't really know them, [so] I have to use my intuition to guide them." She described the method as taking her own experiences out of the picture, and trying to find the best advice for each caller.
"I think I have mini-births and deaths every day – little transformations… I know how to get through my own challenges," she said. "Today, I understand what it means to pick myself back up and move through it rather than sit through my stuff."
Dombrowsky spoke about the power of healing through non-traditional methods. For example, she described her treatment involving "inner child work." She explained that this means she asks patients to reconnect with their childhood self and say what they think of the childhood version and what the inner child thinks of the adult version.
"You've never met this person before, but it's a part of you that's there but you didn't know was there," she said. "What comes up is they had that fear and that's how we get over the fear."
She learned some of her techniques at a Toronto school called the Transformational Arts College of Spiritual and Holistic Training. In 2011, while she was in the middle of the program, she faced what she called a near-death experience after she fell off a horse. Although she damaged her body, she said, the experience led her to become more spiritual.
"I'm way more energetically inclined now. I'm way more in touch with my body. I was always intuitive, but now it's reached another height… so I saw that as a good experience."
She said she read up on internal focusing, which taught her how to heal her own body.
"Through that experience, I can now sense what other people are experiencing in their own bodies," she said, adding that she's not saying she has the power to heal people, but rather that she can feel the energy of someone who is open to it.
Six months after her accident, she joined a team of fundraisers on a journey to climb Mount Kilimanjaro to raise money for Markham Stouffville Hospital's child and adolescent mental health clinic. She had 50 days to raise the minimum requirement of $10,000. She said her family immediately told her she was crazy to try to reach the top, especially given the remaining effects of her accident.
"But who I am is somebody who is so determined, absolutely fearless," she said. "I felt it had a purpose to it."
In the end, she was one of six team members who made it to the top.
"It's mind over matter – there was not even a question in my mind that I was not going to make it," she said, adding that the final stretch was particularly gruelling, given that they climbed in the dark.
"That's like going on a Stairmaster at level 20 with 20 pounds of bricks on your back in the dark. If I were to do it during the day, I don't think I would have done it if I could see what I was doing."
But she called it an amazing experience – though not one she plans to repeat.
Dombrowsky said it's her determination that got her through life's challenges, and she would advise anybody struggling with addiction to persevere.
"If you're afraid to see the light, that's when it doesn't happen," she said. "If you continue to look for a way through it… there's no way you can't find peace."
Mind Matters airs live Wednesdays at 8 p.m. on Rogers TV.

REPORT: Wickets tumble on opening day of the season05-Apr-2012
Amjad Khan gave Sussex the perfect start to the County Championship season at The Oval today - but Surrey hit back to leave the game in the balance.
Khan took 5-57 on a bitterly cold day as Sussex bowled out Surrey for 264 on the first day of the division one clash, Tom Maynard providing the only real resistance with an unbeaten 86.
Sussex lost Ed Joyce second ball of their reply and Surrey further wrestled the initiative back from the visitor by dismissing Luke Wells, Chris Nash, Murray Goodwin and Mike Yardy before the close.

1 Patti Bushee
District 1
After 16 years on the Council, one might think Patti Bushee would grow weary of endless meetings, political machinations and constituent complaints. Not so, she says. "I still really love the job," she says. "I love policy-making and I love helping people." That love appears reciprocal, with Bushee's first-place showing in our first-ever Best City Councilor category.
"It's always great to be recognized," Bushee says. "I'm surprised and I thank those that took the time to do that." Bushee says she didn't even realize voters were choosing a Best City Councilor this year and didn't campaign to win. As for other campaigns in the councilor's future, "I take it one year at a time," she says. "So let's see what this coming election season brings." Bushee may not be chatty about her political prospects, but she's got plenty to say about city projects in the short and long-term.
For example, she remains committed to working on transit solutions in the Railyard for commuters and bicyclists, as well ensuring smart, sustainable citywide development and growth in the future. With so many years of policy making under her belt, Bushee says she's "grown" as a decision-maker. "Obviously, if not, I should have gotten out of the picture. I'm enjoying the knowledge I've gained through this work."

Emporia State students, faculty create exhibit celebrating Black EmporiaMay 26, 2011
Holdings in the Emporia State University Archives are a key part of an exhibit opening in early June.
"Stringtown: A Short Look at Black Emporia 1850-1920" opens June 4 at the Emporia Arts Center, 815 Commercial St. in Emporia. An opening reception will be at 7 p.m. June 4. The exhibit pays tribute to the Black community that emerged in Emporia. Traditionally, African-American families lived in the east side of Emporia, in a neighborhood locally known as "String-town." This term symbolized poverty and thrift, and was a common description of African-American communities and neighborhoods in many Midwestern towns.
Pulitzer Prize-winning newspaper editor William Allen White immortalized the use of "Stringtown" to describe the neighborhood in an editorial he wrote for The Emporia Gazette after the funeral in May 1921 of his only daughter, Mary.
The exhibit was designed by students and faculty at Emporia State University and Flint Hills Technical College. It was created for "Emporia Celebrates the Flint Hills," a weeklong event designed to coincide with the Symphony in the Flint Hills on June 11 in Wabaunsee County.
"Stringtown" features holdings in the archives from several different collections — The Willa Grider Mitchell Family Photographs and Newspaper Clips, Black Emporia: Interpretations and Connections Collection, the Walter M. Andersen Collection, the Penelope "Nellie" Covert Papers and the Cecil Carle Collection.
The Black Emporia collection in the ESU Archives includes information and oral histories collected by members of Emporia's East Side Community Group and was donated by Dr. Carol Marshall, retired ESU faculty member, Elizabeth Williams and the late Nellie Essex.
Carlos Pringle, a graduate student in the Department of Social Sciences at ESU, was the chief investigators. Trenton A. Fay, another social sciences graduate student, was in charge of permissions research and imaging for the project. Both worked as interns supervised by Heather Wade, university archivist, for courses taught by Dr. Gregory Schneider, social sciences professor, and Dr. Joyce Thierer, associate professor of social sciences.
Panels for the exhibit were designed by Jason Brinkman, instructor in the Graphic Arts Technology department at Flint Hills Technical College in Emporia, and Logan Grieder, an FHTC student.
Finally, in proof that today's global society is smaller than one would think, Eric Olsen, marketing director at 3iGraphics, a company in Binghamton, N.Y., that printed the panels for the exhibit, told Wade that he was one of six umpires who officiated the NCAA Division II College World Series in 2009 in which ESU's baseball team finished second.
The Emporia Arts Center is open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tuesday through Friday and 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday. Beginning June 1, the hours will be 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday and 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday. The arts center is closed Sundays.
The exhibit will remain up at the arts center through June 11.
