Available Projects
I want to reface my fireplace and I would like suggestions. Do I need to tear everything down that is currently up? I want to make it a stone wall with a reclaimed wooden mantel. I know I will have to get rid of both the tile surround and replace the tile insert on the floor, but I don't know what to do with the rest of it. I need help. I can't attach the pictures I have for some reason...
You need to prep it so that it can accept the stone. This means that any added on surface (like tile) or any protrusions will need to be removed. If you are down to brick, then you can add stone directly on top of that. If it's a frame wall behind the tile, then you will need to build back with a backer board or a lathe wire stucco. The main thing is that you have a single smooth plane from floor to however high up you want to go with the stone.
jaybee is correct. if i may add ..
on the wire mesh, it is wise to add a scratch coat
then the rock.
Hi Karen.Schmitt,
The reason your pictures fail to show up in your post is because your picture is likely larger than 100Kb in size. This is the size limit that this site has for each picture to post properly in your message.
To overcome this problem, post your pictures on a Free site such at http://www.photobucket.com where there is no size limit to your pictures and you just need to sign up for a Free Account, then upload your pictures. Then return to the DIY Boards and post your message and include links to your pictures at photobucket in your message. In this way others can see your pictures using the links and have a better idea of how to assist you in your project.
Good Luck!

- Silicon Valley's 19 Coolest Places to Work
- Is Windows 8 Development Worth the Trouble?
- 8 Books Every IT Leader Should Read This Year
- 10 Hot Hadoop Startups to Watch
Network World - The unlikely pioneer for 802.11n is a small state college in rural New York, the site of the first large-scale 11n Wi-Fi deployment two years ago. On the surface, not much has changed at Morrisville State College -- except for the expectations of users and the IT department.
"I was talking to a student about his experience with our wireless network," says Jean Boland, vice president for information technology services at MSC. "He said, 'when I go home, my wireless at home is REALLY slow.' I think we've changed the expectation of users. Wireless is now wicked fast."
For MSC users, "wicked fast" means all the bandwidth they need, wherever they are, for just about whatever they want.
802.11n set for final approval; timeline of 802.11n development milestones
In early 2007, the college decided to scrap an aging pre-802.11 network in a few areas and replace it with a campus-wide WLAN. In a surprising move, the MSC board approved Boland's recommendation to go with 802.11n, which had achieved draft 2.0 status just a few months earlier. After evaluating options, the college chose the newly announced equipment from Meru Networks. Meru had not yet ramped up manufacturing, and the college first deployed the company's existing 802.11abg access point during the early part of the summer, replacing them with the spanking new 11n gear a few months later.
It was the first large-scale deployment – about 720 access points – for 11n. It's now dwarfed by such massive 11n deployments as those at Duke University, with 2,500 Cisco access points, and Carnegie Mellon University, with about 3,200 access points from Aruba and secondarily Xirrus.
Such deployments are raising a host of IT issues, as a highly mobile user community – students – opts for wireless connections even when they have a wireline option. One result is that access layer switches are going almost entirely unused (some schools report that more than 90% of wired ports are now idle). Some IT groups are starting to debate when or whether it makes sense to cut the Ethernet access cable.
At Morrisville, the 11n network blankets the entire campus, and extends to a number of off-site locations such as the horse barns. Since the late 2007 deployment of the 11n access points, the network has run reliably. In the dorms, Wi-Fi is the only network access available. There are 3,300 students on campus, and the average online peak is about 1,500 users. There are now about 800 access points.
Trace the evolution of Morrisville's pioneering 11n deployment
Students are outfitted with the campus standard notebook, a Lenovo ThinkPad 400 with an integrated Intel 11n adapter. Over the last two years, there has been a big jump in the number of other Wi-Fi-enabled devices on the network, from 80 to about 400 devices. These consist mainly of iPhones and other so-called dual-mode smartphones, along with Xboxes and other gaming consoles.
As with other colleges and universities, Morrisville is making changes in the way it networks new or refurbished buildings as a consequence of 11n. The newest building on the MSC campus, for industrial and other design disciplines, will offer only some wired ports for printers and other gear. Students and faculty will rely on 11n for CAD and other bandwidth-hungry applications. The Wi-Fi network also lets the building be laid out with flexible workspaces, which can be easily modified to meet student needs.

Student success
U.S. News & World Report has ranked Kennesaw State University's "First-Year Experience" as a "Program to Look For" in its "America's Best Colleges 2005" edition spotlighting excellence in higher education.
A partnership between KSU and the Atlanta Falcons is making it possible for players to complete their college degrees at the team's Flowery Branch training complex. Professors travel to the northeast Georgia facility to teach classes to a handful of players who are just a few credits short of earning their degrees.
Academic excellence
A partnership between KSU and the People's Republic of China brought to campus 24 city government workers from the city of Hangzhou who received their master of arts in public administration degrees at the summer 2004 commencement ceremony. An additional 40+ Chinese students arrive in October to begin the program.
The Coca-Cola Foundation has given $50,000 in support of campus efforts to recruit promising minority students to become educators. The Future Scholars Program, a collaboration between the Bagwell College of Education and the College of Humanities & Social Sciences, offers minority high school students the opportunity to take college education courses and gain teaching experience by tutoring elementary school students.
The American Council on Education selected KSU as one of only eight institutions in the country for a new study, "Global Learning for All," focusing on best practices in promoting international student success.
KSU's commitment to the importance of international outreach is reflected in the International Center's name change to the Institute for Global Initiatives.
As a co-sponsor of the national Initiative to Educate Afghan Women, KSU awarded a full four-year scholarship to a woman from Afghanistan who began her education in fall 2003. Through the initiative, a second scholarship was awarded to a woman graduate student who began her studies in fall 2004.
More than 1,500 strong, KSU's international students hail from 129 countries. The 2004-2005 academic year is being celebrated as the Year of France. In support of the Year of France, various departments have sponsored special events focusing on the culture, language and people of France. For a full list of events and initiatives, see the Year of France Web site.
Civic engagement
On January 22, 2007, the Holocaust Education Program unveiled three new exhibitions in partnership with the Atlanta History Center. Parallel Journeys: World War II & the Holocaust through the Eyes of Teens. This exhibit tells the stories of dozens of teenagers who were witnesses, participants, and often victims of this brutal conflict.
The KSU Center will also showcase a second exhibition, V for Victory: Georgia Remembers WWII, a traveling exhibit from the Atlanta History, which chronicles Georgia's role in WWII and tells the heroic stories of Georgia soldiers who served their country.
The exhibit also features a component of The Butterfly Project, a program initiated by the Holocaust Museum Houston, as an effort to represent the children who perished in the Holocaust. The goal of the project is to collect 1.5 million hand-crafted butterflies, one for each child victim. All of the exhibit are free and open to the public.
Ethical leadership
The RTM Center for Leadership, Ethics & Character gained approval for a name change to the RTM Institute for Leadership, Ethics & Character. This name change reflects the work the institute was already doing as an interdisciplinary organization striving to impact the lives of students and faculty while also serving as a link between KSU and the business community.
Thanks to a $1 million grant from The Goizueta Foundation, Feland L. Meadows, Ph.D., recently became the first holder of The Goizueta Foundation Chair in Early Childhood Education at Kennesaw State University's Bagwell College of Education. This endowed chair enables Kennesaw State to become the first institution in Georgia to develop certificate and bachelor's degree programs preparing teachers to serve children from birth to 5 years of age.
In partnership with the Healthcare Georgia Foundation, KSU's Center for Community Healthcare has begun Phase I of an 18-month program aimed at developing culturally sensitive diabetes education and intervention programs. The $200,000 grant from Healthcare Georgia kicked off the Initiative for Diabetes Educational Advancement for Hispanics/Latinos.
National rankings, awards, grants and honors
Kennesaw State University's CyberTech program received a $1,030,714 grant from the National Science Foundation through the NSF's Information Technology Experiences for Students & Teachers program. This three-year project will involve collaborations with 10+ high schools in northwest Georgia. In addition, CyberTech received a $50,000 grant from the UPS Foundation to support the continued growth of this educational initiative. CyberTech promotes diversity and improves achievement while introducing high school students from traditionally under-represented groups to the possibility of a career in the sciences, particularly computer science.
Kennesaw State University has been designated as a Center of Academic Excellence in Information Assurance Education (CAEIAE) by the National Security Agency. This designation recognizes Kennesaw State's commitment to academic excellence when teaching students who will safeguard our nation's information systems. KSU is one of only two institutions in the state to receive this designation.
The Cobb Microenterprise Center, which helps low- and moderate-income individuals start their own businesses, has been selected to receive a Microenterprise Development Program grant from Hewlett Packard. The HP grant will range from $150,000 to $250,000 and will include technology equipment and tools. It will be supplemented by services, support and training as needed.
The master of science in conflict management program, housed in the Department of Political Science and International Affairs, received the University System of Georgia Board of Regents' Award for Excellence in Teaching.

Hey all,
There has been spam going around a lot, claiming to give free Millionaire Gold. It's a scam and the free gold does not exist!
Gold is only given inside the Millionaire City game. It can be bought either with Facebook credits or by earning it by completing the mission in the Millionaire City game or by completing the offers on the 'Add Gold' tab from within the game.
Gold is never given by anyone outside the game or by someone else than Digital Chocolate.
So I kindly ask you not to spam the Forums or the fanpage with these scams, since they are a massive waste of time and energy and the creators of these scams might have suspicious ulterior motives.
We will delete the spam and if you continue to spam, we will block you from the Forums and/or the game.
Thanks for reading this and considering the other users of Millionaire City Forums and fanpage.

Spray On1 of 9
By Shannan Rouss
The right fragrance not only enhances your mood—evoking certain memories and associations—but can also help change it altogether. Find out which scents suit you best, and what to spritz when you need a little aroma therapy.
Spring In Your Step2 of 9
If you're feeling… a little sluggish, then perk up with a refreshing citrus scent. "Citrus notes energize and invigorate, with lemon and orange leading the pack," says fragrance expert Jan Moran, author of Fabulous Fragrances I and II.
Spritz this: Enjoy a crisp fruit-infused finish with Jo Malone Verbenas of Provence, $55.
Life Of The Party3 of 9
If you're feeling… upbeat and outgoing, then complement your mood—and draw others to you—with a fresh, herbaceous fragrance, a scent that, according to studies, people with more extroverted personalities often prefer.
Spritz this: Lolita Lempicka Eau du Desir Eau de Toilette, $80, is full of zest just like you.
Privacy, Please4 of 9
If you're feeling… quiet and reserved, then don't shy away from soft, oriental fragrances with a subtle air of mystery. Whereas extroverts opt for bold, fresh scents, introverted types are drawn to sumptuous amber notes.
Spritz this: Prada Amber Eau de Parfum Spray, $75, is a new classic in the oriental fragrance family.
Rules Of Attraction5 of 9
If you're feeling... sensual and seductive, then enhance the romance with a musky, spicy scent that's alluring without being overpowering. "For centuries, jasmine, clove, ginger and patchouli have been valued for their aphrodisiac qualities," says Moran.
Spritz this: Gucci Guilty, $55, is simply irresistible.
Petal Power6 of 9
If you're feeling… a little down, then stop and smell the roses—and other cheer-inducing blooms. "The scent of roses is a well-known antidepressant," says Moran. Lily of the valley, hyacinth and tuberose are also happy notes, she adds.
Spritz this: Bvlgari Rose Essentielle, $65, has a feminine floral aroma that isn't at all too sweet.
Uptown Girl7 of 9
If you're feeling... elegant and timeless, then take a cue from Chanel No. 5, introduced in 1921. The powdery floral blend is both feminine and crisp.
Spritz this: For a modern version of the longstanding classic, try Chloé Love Eau de Parfum Spray, $85.
Scents Of Adventure8 of 9
If you're feeling… like you need a vacation, then "look for exotic combinations of flowers, spices and woods," says Moran, who notes that the warm scent of oud wood and ginger are particularly wanderlust-worthy. It's not the same as a getaway, but the aroma may inspire you to book that much-needed trip.
Spritz this: Escape with Tom Ford Private Blend Oud Wood Eau de Parfum, $190.
Zen-sational9 of 9
If you're feeling… overwhelmed—or completely calm and want to stay that way—then seek out scents of vanilla, lavender and chamomile. "Vanilla is so effective that it's used in MRI settings to help relax patients," says Moran.
Spritz this: Lavanila Vanilla Lavender, $39, is serenity in a bottle.

A public look into closed abortion clinic on Apple Avenue on January 15, 2013
Tuesday, January 15, 2013 5:26 PM
Inappropriate photo? Alert us.
Dr. Robert Alexander on Tuesday, Jan. 15, showed an MLive and Muskegon Chronicle reporter around his closed abortion clinic at 863 E. Apple in Muskegon. It was the first public look inside the clinic that city inspectors ordered closed Dec. 26. Alexander operated Women's Medical Services for years before it was closed because of alleged unsanitary conditions found as police investigated a broken rear door at the clinic. Glass in the steel-frame door was smashed.

Fantastic book, as are all Clancy novels. This book is based on a game created by Clancy...While the game leaves much to be desired, the book is wonderful. There are 15 scenarios in the book, and all are action packed. While this is far from the norm for Clancy, it is a welcome change. There isn't much techno buildup, but there is wonderful action. I was pleasantly suprised that I liked this book, I figured that without the usual technical jargon, t...

Where is it all going wrong for Newcastle United?
With four Premier League games remaining Newcastle United are two places and six points above the relegation zone -- a position that surprises even the most pessimistic Newcastle fans following last season's fifth placed finish.
How has it come to this? There are so many failings that if I was to write about all of them in great depth this blog would cover thousands upon thousands of words.
- Taylor upbeat over Toon survival
- Pardew: I'll listen to fans when safe
In my opinion the problems began in the Boardroom when they failed to strengthen on a squad that everyone knew was weak. The club's 'purples' signing policy left Alan Pardew short on quality. The signing of Vurnon Anita was also a strange one -- quality footballers are always welcome additions, but anyone could see that other positions needed to be strengthened before another midfielder came in. It is widely assumed that Pardew has little say in who comes in with Chief Scout Graham Carr identifying signings. Anita may well have been a signing that Pardew did not want when you consider how little he has used him throughout the season.
The board finally strengthened the squad in the January transfer window but by that point the league season was a battle for survival rather than something to build on after last year.
Pardew's 'Manager of the Year' titles seem to have changed how the manager thinks and operates. Time and time again this season Pardew has tried to make himself look clever -- the season has been littered with bizarre team line-ups, mental tactical reshuffles at strange times in matches and players playing out of position.
The most criminal of these is Pardew's use of Moussa Sissoko. Sissoko arrived in January and made an instant impact with a superb through ball for a Papiss Cisse goal at Aston Villa followed by an all-time great individual performance at St James' Park in the 3-2 win over Chelsea. Since then Pardew has opted to use the dominant French International midfielder as a Number 10 (someone to aim long balls at in Pardew's setup) or as a wide man. Unbelievable. Even French manager Didier Deschamps felt the need to scorn this.
It's not just Moussa though -- Cisse played the opening months of the season as a wide man, Jonas Gutierrez has played all the way across midfield as well as at fullback, Cheick Tiote has played some games in a more advanced position than Yohan Cabaye which is totally baffling. Even if Pardew sees Cabaye as a 'Quarterback' with the ability to spray passes around, his tactics often totally miss out the midfield making this role redundant.
There also look to be some other coaching deficiencies. We all now know that Newcastle haven't score a goal from a corner in 18 months and over 200 games. We all know that the next time Newcastle get a free kick anywhere between 35 and 70 yards from goal they will aim to Mike Williamson or Steven Taylor at the back post to no avail. Why? Do they not practice these things? Why so predictable and so unsuccessful? It's not good enough.
Newcastle supporters have spent most of the season watching ugly football. Their 'long ball' count has consistently exceeded all other Premier League teams. Players like Cabaye, Sissoko and Hatem Ben Arfa cannot enjoy playing in such an ugly, underperforming side.
Then again, the players have to take their share of responsibility too. Perhaps some Newcastle supporters overrate their players? The majority of Newcastle supporters rated Tiote as a £20million footballer only 18 months ago -- don't deny it! I was one. Did we overrate Tiote or is this another sign of coaching deficiency? How can a player who was so dominating and vital become such a liability? I can't speak for supporters of other clubs but at Newcastle there is a culture of footballers being regarded as either 'world class' or 'absolutely shocking' when in reality the majority of them are neither.
Pardew has bemoaned bad luck or, to quote a Pardewism, "we just didn't have the rub of the green" a few times this season. Newcastle have also enjoyed a fair amount of good luck -- look at Demba Ba's unspotted handball goal at Reading or the late, deflected winner against West Brom.
Tiredness has also been a regular excuse for the manager. While I am sure it has played it's part off the back of a Europa League campaign, Newcastle only played in two domestic cup games. Compare that to Chelsea -- Cabaye and Sissoko were said to be tired in the 3-0 capitulation to Sunderland but Chelsea's Juan Mata and Eden Hazard have played 114 games between them this season -- a lot more than our French duo, and they still look in great shape. Chelsea obviously have a superior player conditioning programme. Injuries have severely plagued Newcastle all season and far too many of them have been muscular.
The spirit of the players is a strange one. How can you explain so many late, late winners while also considering the absolutely pitiful displays at Southampton, Manchester City, the second half at West Brom on Saturday or the capitulation to one of the poorest Sunderland sides in years? Some of this is down to a lack of leadership on the pitch. The appointment of Fabricio Coloccini as Captain was a strange one -- Everton demonstrated how players can influence the officials when they won at St James' Park in January with Leighton Baines and company constantly in the referee's ear – Coloccini, on the other hand, is far from fluent in English. This has to have an effect. Quite what Pardew has said in the dressing room at times is also a concern -- his 15 minutes with the players at halftime can completely ruin performances.
This has been a long, unpleasant season. Newcastle will survive but a lot of things have to be addressed in the summer on and off the pitch.

SPARKS — NOW Foods, an international manufacturer and distributor of health food and nutritional supplements, announced Thursday an accelerated completion date for the second phase of its new 130,000-square-foot West Coast distribution and manufacturing facility in Sparks.
With the accelerated timeline for the manufacturing operation, NOW Foods also announced that it will begin hiring for the newly created manufacturing, management and chemist jobs beginning in March.
"Because of the business-friendly environment Nevada offers, it made sense to move so quickly here," said Al Powers, CEO of NOW Health Group. "This is a great opportunity to accommodate our high growth rate and better serve our customers, and work with the northern Nevada community to generate positive economic movement."
The full-time jobs being created with phase two will include manufacturing management, skilled machine operators, chemists and some warehouse and general labor with multiple shift options. Within 18 months, NOW Foods expects to hire 100 employees in northern Nevada for the manufacturing operation, along with additional hires for its distribution operation. NOW Foods, based in Bloomingdale, Ill., currently operates a distribution facility at 990 Packer Way in Sparks, which opened in 2003.
"The high quality workforce in northern Nevada will reduce the need to relocate most of our management level employees as we will be able to hire qualified managers and scientists right here," said Jim Emme, president of NOW Foods. "The exceptional and educated work force that the region has to offer is another reason NOW Foods is excited to increase its operations in northern Nevada."
Originally scheduled to be completed in 2014, NOW Foods worked closely with United Construction Company to expedite phase two of the project, moving the completion date to the third quarter of 2012. Phase one of the project, which includes the warehouse/distribution facility built by UCC, is scheduled to be completed in March.
"United Construction has been an incredible partner in making phase two a reality," Emme said. "We have a great deal of trust in United Construction to be able to meet our accelerated goals with this project. We have also received great support from elected and appointed officials in Nevada, including Gov. Brian Sandoval, who understand our regulatory challenges and who has given NOW Foods the confidence to move forward with this project. The city of Sparks, EDAWN and The Chamber also played large roles in this project, assisting us in overcoming any obstacles that we faced to achieve and meet our accelerated timeline for the project."
Once the manufacturing improvements are complete later this year, NOW Foods will have the ability to manufacture and ship its products regionally, versus shipping all products from its Midwest operation, creating a more efficient and sustainable business model. NOW Foods' manufacturing facility in Sparks will prevent the need for off-shore manufacturing of products to meet NOW Foods' customer demand.
With the completion of the manufacturing operation in Sparks, NOW Foods will have invested more than $20 million into the operation in northern Nevada, the company's largest single facility investment ever.
The project is located at 575 Vista Blvd. The new facility consists of 70,000 square feet of warehousing and distribution, 50,000 square feet of manufacturing, 6,000 square feet of office and 4,000 square feet of cooler/freezer space. NOW Foods will pursue USGBC LEED Silver Certification for the new Sparks facility by meeting or exceeding the local development and green building standards.
Online application for the NOW Foods jobs will begin in March at www.NOWFoods.com.

A spokesperson for the prosecuting attorney's office in Fayette County, Pa., said Monday that no court hearings have been scheduled for a Buckhannon woman, who was charged Friday with aggravated assault and attempted homicide following a police chase and standoff that left one man dead.
Jessica Lynn Phillips, 28, is being held in the Fayette County Jail in lieu of a $1 million bond.
Donald Ray Brown, 53, also of Buckhannon, died inside a Uniontown, Pa., residence during the 10-hour police standoff Friday from what investigators believe was a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Pennsylvania state troopers began pursuing a pickup truck with a West Virginia license plate shortly after noon Friday in the Ohiopyle area. The Associated Press reported that during the pursuit, the occupants of the truck allegedly opened a back window and began firing at the police car that was chasing them. The reason for the attempted traffic stop has not been released. The Pennsylvania State Police is continuing to investigate the incident.
The driver of the truck later reportedly lost control of the vehicle, crashing into a residence in Uniontown. The owner of the house was not home at the time of the crash, according to police reports.
Police entered the house after about 10 hours, finding Brown dead.
The Laurel Highlands School District was on lockdown Friday because of its close proximity to the standoff.

Creating a seamless, tileable texture in GIMP
Graphic artists often face the problem of turning a photograph into an image that will tile over a larger surface. This task is not as easy as it sounds, but if you're up for the challenge, this tutorial will give you a first-hand look at some advanced tools in the GIMP toolkit.
Most magazine articles written on the subject of GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program) start with the basics and don't get much further. In this article, we'll take you past the first steps and show you how the experts use the GIMP to address a very practical problem: turning a simple photograph into an image you can use to tile a surface. From Photo to Tile One of the most common defects in photographs is the presence of uneven brightness in the image. In Figure 1, for instance, the right part of the image is brighter, and the left part is darker in comparison.

Why didn't Elvis ever strap on an electric guitar 71-77??????
Can you imagine Indy '77...Elvis playing ELECTRIC guitar singing "Baby What you Want me to Do" ...on his stool???
I have read many different accounts to this little quirk, so I am going to ask it here in order to get some thoughts on it.
Why didn't Elvis play more instruments in concert during the 1970's? From recordings I have heard, and from written accounts, he was a good musician and was known to have played not only guitar, but piano and drums. Of course everyone is aware of the few occasions he'd play a few bars of 2-3 songs on his acoustic guitar from 1976-1977, and when he'd play piano on Unchained Melody and a few other songs.
However, my question is this, do you think had Elvis been more involved in playing more instruments during his shows that he would have taken an even greater interest in his work?
"Don't tamper with the property of the U.S. Male"
Why didn't Elvis ever strap on an electric guitar 71-77??????
Can you imagine Indy '77...Elvis playing ELECTRIC guitar singing "Baby What you Want me to Do" ...on his stool???
When was the last time he played an electric guitar onstage, I wonder? Would that have been in August 1970? I know they would have a mike on his guitar on some later concerts for a few songs, and that was cool. In fact, I think when he started doing that in '76, I guess, it really added something to his shows, showcasing his musicianship. ("You never played the guitar, they said." "No, I've played it several times." ) So I would have liked to have seen more of that.
I guess I've seen a photo or two of Elvis at the drums, but could he really do much with them?
Hey, jb, if you're tuning in, I meant to comment on this before: You mentioned in another thread how Elvis really killed Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata; were you joking or is there a recording of this?
His moments at the piano in concert were definite highlights too. Perhaps if Elvis had not died when he did, he would have continued to play the instruments more in his shows, which he seemed to be doing a little more towards the end.
...you won't forget me when I go.
i dont think elvis need to play instrument, since he got who's the best at it...his band members,...if you heard them playing solo's ...sometimes it gives me goosebumps, especially Ron Tutt,..he is one hell of a drummer i dont think elvis could play drums better than that I think Elvis didnt really think it was a big deal that he doesnt play guitar either, i remember one story when elvis met Eric Clapton, and he didnt know that Eric was one of the best guitarist by that time, he pointed Eric to learn how to play guitar to JB,..what a helper (h) that shows how much Elvis think that JB is some one with bigger talent than himself.

You ever see Elvis play the bass/rhythm chords on songs like 'Heartbreak Hotel' and 'Money Honey' on the Dorsey Brother's TV Show in 1956?
You ever hear Elvis play some rhythm guitar chords on the Million Dollar Quartet session in December, 1956?
You ever hear studio out-takes of Elvis playing acoustic guitar on 'Shoppin' Around' from the 'G.I. Blues' soundtrack?
You ever see the 1968 TV Special Comeback - the new DVD edition was released this summer? I think I can see our man play the Lead on a song called 'Baby, What You Want Me To Do' a number of times in that!
You ever see Elvis playing bass/rhythm chords on acoustic and electric guitars in the documentary 'Elvis-That's The Way It Is'?
Granted, Elvis wasn't the worlds most primed guitar playing maestro and he probably did only know about three chords prior to January, 1956 and this resulted in a lot of the chords Elvis supposedly strummed during any of Scotty's live instrumentals being somewhat 'mimed'.
But, taking all the aforementioned points I have just raised into account, would you not say that Elvis is still actually playing the instrument as opposed to this 'fakin' it' as you rightly pronounce it ? - Elvis didn't play Lead guitar, James Burton did, but it didn't stop Elvis playing his bass/rhythm licks on such vegas songs as 'Are You Lonesome Tonight', 'Reconsider Baby' and 'Blue Christmas'.
In the 68 Comeback Special after watching Elvis play the electric guitar during the song One Night, I feel he would have energized both the audience and himself during his shows had he added an electric guitar segment in to his show. As for him saying he could only play 3 chords - well, he played them nicely and earned a lot of $$$$$$ doing it
I just wish I knew how to play 1 chord
"Don't tamper with the property of the U.S. Male"
I believe this topic should have been added to the thread I started in regards to Elvis playing instruments during the 70's.
Lets try and keep the subjects together guys so we don't crowd the room, please.
"Don't tamper with the property of the U.S. Male"
well NEA..i mean that for jokin'..relaxOriginally Posted by NEA
if you watch elvis CBS Special...he said that ' fakin' it for a long time , and only knew 3 cords' as a joke before he sang " Are You Lonesome Tonight "..thats what i meant to it... i copied the sentences from the man himself ..
i am sorry if that offended you, mate.

I have merged the two more or less simular topics together
I think that it all boils down to ?habbit?. Elvis never was plugged with his acoustic-guitar in the fifties, nor in the sixties, not in the Comeback Special... Most of the time, Elvis? acoustic could be heard through his own mic and later on Charlie held a mic in front of the guitar (?You got a lot of nerves boy? Memphis, July 76), later on a small standard can be seen in pictures for his guitar (77).
I love the way Elvis played electric-guitar, he really had his own style. I wish he had played it more often, as well as the piano. Would love to hear Elvis play the drums as well...
I think this thing can also be brought back to Elvis' believe that he wasn't good enough. I think Elvis thought about it this way "James and John are much better guitarplayers than I am, so what's the point?". Same thing with writing and composing ("They are professional composers/songwriters.. who am I to think that I can do better?").
But on the other hand: he did play piano durin "Unchained Melody"..... weird.... So many questions, so few answers....
Bobby, they really messed up this wonderful tune and you can hear it in all its painful haming ( the whole gang just hum/ yowl) on a FTD - "In a Private Moment " I think it is.Write and tell me if you dont find it.Hey, jb, if you're tuning in, I meant to comment on this before: You mentioned in another thread how Elvis really killed Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata; were you joking or is there a recording of this?
Sorry I cannot access this board from home and I rarely find the time to do it from office- right now it time for me to go home!
Ah yes. I need to listen to that.
Go home, jb!
...you won't forget me when I go.
I'm home ! This **** PC gets me to click at least 20 times to get the screen - every time I change or want to look at another thread it is the same -lousy Norton ! Just cannot get the settings right ,despite giving "full rights" for this server/board- sadly it is only for this board !

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"This card was a prefect fit for our wedding thank you card. Our colors were yellow and grey which this card offered. The font that was offered was not my favorite so I asked for a script and the the wedding paper divas were able to meet my needs. I couldn't be happier with the way it turned out. The paper quality was very nice not cheaper feeling or looking. I would highly recommend this card."
"These cards are great quality and beautifully designed and printed. The colors were customized exactly to our specifications and they arrived quickly!"
"This card was a little smaller then I had thought but it was a perfect Thank you for my shower gifts. I really enjoyed being able to customize it with my wedding colors as well."
"We personalized the card with the front to say Thank you and added our initials on the bottom right hand corner to look like personal stationary. They came out beautiful and made them very personalized, especially for our guests who were going to be receiving them. The paper quality was worth the money spent- we could have going with $30 thank you from another retailer but we would have looked cheap. Its tough but when your friends and family spend the time celebrating and choose to give you a substantial gift its appropriate and also nice to say thank you with good quality paper rather then saying thanks for the gift on a junk paper. your a married women/man act like it!!! We haven't send them out yet but I know my family and friends and they will appreciate it plus they are matching with my invitations and they raved about the invitations and how beautiful they were!!! These are a must."
"My wedding theme was grey but having the ability to combine peacocks somewhere in the wedding was great. I used the whole peacock plume range. These cards are so simple, but great because you have enough room to say what you want to say like 'thanks for coming, we spent your $$ on a helicopter flight' (we went to New York - thats a big deal when you live in Sydney)."
