Black and Gold Powder Bathroom Reveal and Tile DetailsMay 12th, 2014
Mr. Project has been super busy with work lately (imagine that), and hasn't had a lot of time to work on house projects. So we're kind of living in this limbo state right now. And I want to share pictures of the house, but at the same time, I want to wait for everything to be finished and perfect. But it's not finished and perfect yet, so I haven't really been posting anything.
There are a few rooms that are done and ready to go, so I figured I might as well start there! I'm going to have a professional photographer come and do the whole house when it's done, but for now you'll have to enjoy my photography. The photos in this post were taken with my Nikon DSLR and a wide-angle lens.
Okay, onto the bathroom! Here's the Powder Room Style Guide that I created for this bathroom. I got pretty close except the color pallet changed. And here is the bathroom from the black ceiling to the basketweave tile floor.
And a little closer view:
Originally I had planned on painting the vanity a brighter color, but towards the end of the build, decided that I was in love with the color black. So I painted the upper half of the room black (Restoration Hardware Obsidian), and balanced out the black with a white 3×6 subway tile wainscot (tile from BuildDirect). I finished off the tile with a piece of trim that had a dadoed edge to cover the top of the tile. I did this because it was so much cheaper than buying a specialty tile to finish it off with. I also like how it's just a little more cozy feeling than a tile border. The wainscot is 44″ tall.
On the floor I wanted a beautiful marble and basket weave tile. When I was pricing out all my tile, I realized I could save quite a bit of money by creating a border of field tiles (in this case 12×24 marble tiles from BuildDirect) on the outside of the room. Then the inside could be the more expensive mosaic tile. To bring some definition to the space, I found some skinny black pencil tiles at Lowes.
I love the effect and think it looks more custom than if the whole floor was basket weave.
Because I wanted the black walls, I decided at the very last minute to paint the vanity off white. Mr. Project had undertaken the task to strip the whole thing in preparation for the new paint, and when I saw how beautiful the original wood was, we decided to stain (to make the color/grain look more uniform) and seal the top, and then paint the bottom for contrast. I would have loved to have the whole thing be the original wood, but I was a little worried with all the fine details that we would run into paint stripping issues and an uneven finish. I love the final product though, it really is a gorgeous and unique vanity.
Behind the door is a hidden pocket or closet shower. I had seen pictures of showers with door entrances like this while I was looking for house inspiration, but I didn't think I would have a spot for one in the house. When our framing was being done, we changed this space from a supply closet (accessible from the pantry) to a shower. I just love how it turned out.
The jamb is made of marble (cut from 12×24 tiles), and the exterior casing is just regular flat door casing.
We used the same 3×6 white subway tile for the walls and ceiling. And the marble basketweave for the floor.
And a little bit of the marble on the inside of this recessed shelf. The bench top is from a remnant piece of quartz.
I'm so in love with how elegant and unique this room is. Also, I totally spray painted the chandelier gold/brass!

So they may not have much customization when it comes to Worgen hair colour, but it is cool how many different facial markings they have put in for the Worgen females! There are also a few different choices for ears as well, but I didn't take screenshots of all of those yet, lol.

Finally got to meet the kids behind the bar after all these years, and these guys did work! Rocked Control Avalon like they were the headlining act. Didn't hold back and threw down a hard electro set for a venue packed with disco house loving Treasure Fingers fans. They didn't miss a beat and had the personalities to match. Here's how it went:
First off…get at this video I got to get a taste of what their set was.
C+A+D: So first off, standard: a little bit about yourselves, where you guys are from?
Kids at the Bar (Matt): A lot of people are surprised by this, but we live in Oklahoma City. Definitely a nice place to go to after all the touring. Especially after the big one with the Sounds.
C+A+D: How's the scene shaping up over there?
KATB (Rad): It's good! We do a party every Wednesday night for 4-600 kids called Robotic Wednesdays. It's all come such a long way in OKC. (Matt) It's funny pretty much everyone producing in the scene lives really close together. It's all become like a tight knit community trying to make it happen.
C+A+D: Ok so I know your name is poking fun at people acting childish when they're drunk, but….why??
KATB (Matt): We wouldn't say poking fun! It's a sort of bringing light to the fact of the matter. Not trying to judge people having fun…(Rad) We're definitely with those people too haha
C+A+D: Did either of you having a fake ID growing up?
KATB (Matt): Nah I never did. (Rad) I had a fake ID from Los Lomos? Is that a town in California?
C+A+D: Uh..I really don't think so but all of California has the same ID.
KATB (Rad): Oh haha that definitely adds to it being the worst fake ID ever…I literally had to laminate it 6 times myself. Never got busted at the clubs though! Got busted skinny dipping in a pool. The cop wasn't having it…
C+A+D: Alright between you two guys, who does what? Is one of you more focused on remixing? Producing? DJing? Closing with chicks? Your specialties..
KATB (Rad): Yeah well Matt's more of the production guy. We both were producing with Ableton when we first met, and Matt had been studying it for several years after working with bands. I had been DJing for awhile too, so it worked out well for both of us. (Matt) We never really assigned rules, we just kinda fell into a place after awhile of where we felt more comfortable. And for production there are really no boundaries. If I send him over a track he doesn't go "oh man I really don't wanna hurt Matt's feelings," no no. He'll just be like "dude that sucks" haha "start over.."
C+A+D: I remember awhile ago Pretty Much Amazing made a Daft Punk remix compilation called Remix After All, and normally I'd say remixing them is one of the seven deadly since. But you guys pulled it off! How did that all go down?
KATB: We didn't know how we would do any of the other remixes so we were pretty nervous about it. Luckily that was the only one that had the vocal stems that we could find really easily. But we got a lot of support from it! That's how we met Sonny [Skrillex], and that was our key to that relationship. (Matt) I'm glad we didn't do "Around the World" or "Robot Rock" because those are impossible to improve on.
Daft Punk – Technologic (Kids At the Bar Remix)
C+A+D: I feel like when we talk to artists for the most part there's a track that's, not necessarily their favorite, but one they're most proud of. Is there one that stands out to either of you?
KATB (Matt): It's pretty much the ones that have stood the test of time. Like the "Walking On A Dream" one we did, people still tell us they like. (Rad) For me, it's moreso the Bingo Players bootleg. We like the ones that people want to dance to. It makes it the most enjoyable for you to play when you see everyone going crazy to that track.
Empire of the Sun – Walking On A Dream (Kids At the Bar)
C+A+D: What was it like touring with The Sounds, being a rock band and all?
KATB (Rad): It was definitely way different than club nights, which is what we're used to doing. Touring with a rock band is definitely more challenging in that you have to win over the crowd. A majority of the audience isn't used to seeing a DJ play or what to expect. Usually at clubs people are intoxicated on either alcohol or drugs, so you know, they're feelin good and for rock shows they're all sober. You gotta get the energy going. Once we figured out what worked, we went with it.
C+A+D: Alright last question! Mandatory…you're stranded on a desert island: one album, one bottle of alcohol…GO!
KATB: [pause]
C+A+D: It's tough…I know it's tough! But something came to your head when I said that. What was it?
KATB (Rad): Hahah Album: The Police – Greatest Hits. And then uh…Jameson! (Matt) For me, album: Smashing Pumpkins – Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness. With a bottle of Patron Anejo.
C+A+D: And that's a wrap then. Thanks dudes.
KATB: No problem! We gotcha.

God of War III Delayed...For One Day!
I happen to disagree, as I don't see anything wrong. Why? Simple. The people who will buy God of War III are most likely not the same gamer who's into Gran Turismo 5. Sure, there will be many that overlap, but that's the hardcore gamer who will buy both games. Regardless, I think even the non-hardcore will find a way to get both games into their library, and having so much energy focused around the PlayStation 3 during that time should do nothing but help sales of the console even more.
Anyway, digression aside, I then decided to see what the pending release date for God of War III is. Sony had originally announced it for a March 31st release...which they've now bumped back one day to April 1st, a Thursday. Odd. But it may be because Sony wants to place all of God of War's success into their fiscal 2010 books, as opposed to FY2009, which ends March 31st for Sony. So what could this mean? We're not entirely sure. We can only assume it seems like Sony's trying to partially split the sales of Gran Turismo 5 into two fiscal years by releasing it in March. And we know it'll work well since GT games are historically known for their enormous momentum in sales - meaning sales don't stagnate a week after the game comes out; the games progressively keep on selling with healthy numbers for months. God of War is a slightly different beast, that, while also being a massive powerhouse in sales, tends to make a good majority of its sales in the first month.
Just stating a little observation here, is all. Talking out loud, while also informing you of a one day delay for God of War III.

it means SONY LIED TO US!!!!!!!!!!!
they promised GOW3 would be out in FY 2009.
meh 1 day i wont string them up for that.............yet.
but i seriously think there stupid for releasing both GOW3 and GT5 so close to eachother.
i know heaps of people who are buying a ps3 for GOW3 same for GT5.
releasing both so close to each other, instead of having people buying a ps3 for one or the other having 2 system sellers.
they only now have one.
the people who were going to buy a ps3 for GOW3 now probably will buy one for GT5 because its suppose to come out earlier.
now hows that bad i hear you ask.
well what would you rather?
have 1 month of 4 million sales for example.
or 2 months of 2 million each.
which one looks better?
Monday, October 12, 2009 @ 1:27:55 AM
since when was GOW3 set for march 31st?
last time i checked all their demos since E3 have said march 2010 they never have said a date.
and gamestop have had april first as the date since i can remember, before E3.
quite scary how accurate gamestop has been, every time i check a date for a game there they have always been 100% correct.

Sure it'll still get high but maybe not among GTAIV all those.
Because with games like Dante's Inferno and Bayonneta coming out, maybe critics will think that GOWIII isn't so special.
If there's something GOWIII have that other games don't have please tell me and prove me wrong because I'm really hoping I'm wrong.

Historical records matching Vince Gill
Immediate Family
About Vince Gill
Vincent Grant "Vince" Gill (born April 12, 1957) is an American country singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. He has achieved commercial success and fame both as frontman to the country rock band Pure Prairie League in the 1970s, and as a solo artist beginning in 1983, where his talents as a vocalist and musician have placed him in high demand as a guest vocalist, and a duet partner. Gill has recorded more than twenty studio albums, charted over forty singles on the U.S. Billboard charts as Hot Country Songs, and has sold more than 22 million albums. He has been honored by the Country Music Association with 18 CMA Awards, including two Entertainer of the Year awards and five Male Vocalist Awards. Gill has also earned 27 Grammy Awards, more than any other male Country music artist. In 2007, Gill was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame.
Early life
Vincent Grant "Vince" Gill was born in Norman, Oklahoma. His father, J. Stanley Gill, was a lawyer and administrative law judge who played in a country music band part time and encouraged Gill to pursue a music career. At the encouragement of his father, Gill learned to play several instruments, including the banjo and guitar, before he started high school at Oklahoma City's Northwest Classen High School. He first played with a teenage band called Bluegrass Revues in the late 1970s. The other members were: Billy Perry on the banjo, Bobby Clark on the mandolin and Mike Perry on the bass.
While in high school, he performed with Mountain Smoke, a bluegrass band that once opened for Pure Prairie League and Kiss. After he graduated, he played in a number of bluegrass bands, including Ricky Skaggs' Boone Creek and Byron Berline and Sundance; later, he became a member of Rodney Crowell's road band, The Cherry Bombs.
Gill debuted on the national scene with the country rock band Pure Prairie League in 1979, appearing on that band's album Can't Hold Back. Gill is the lead singer on their hit song "Let Me Love You Tonight".
Mark Knopfler once invited Gill to join Dire Straits, but Gill declined the offer (although he sang backup on Dire Straits' album On Every Street).
Gill provided background vocals for the song, "Tennessee Line", from Daughtry's second studio album, Leave This Town.
Gill has been a member of the Grand Ole Opry since 1991.
Gill was scheduled to appear at the 44th Annual Country Music Awards on Nov 10, 2010.
Gill was mentioned at length by Lewis Black in Black's "Stark Raving Black" stand-up act. Black goes on to joke about how awful it was to follow Gill at a Tony La Russa Animal Rescue Foundation benefit show because of how well Vince and wife, Amy Grant, performed.
Gill is currently collaborating with Joe Bonamassa on his forthcoming album Dust Bowl.
In July 2011, Gill appeared as a guest on NPR's news quiz show Wait, Wait...Don't Tell Me.
On February 23, 2012 Vince announced after 23 years with MCA Nashville that he had parted ways with the label
On April 14, 2012, it was confirmed that Gill had been working with Bonnie Tyler on her upcoming album, performing a duet with her entitled "What You Need From Me".
In June 2012 Gill was touring and performing only bluegrass songs.
Gill will receive the 2,478th star of the Hollywood Walk of Fame on September 6, 2012.
Personal life
Gill married country singer Janis Oliver of Sweethearts of the Rodeo fame, in 1980, and they had one daughter, Jennifer Jerene Gill, born May 5, 1982. Gill occasionally mixed sound for his wife's band at concerts. Vince and Janis separated in the mid-1990s and eventually divorced in June 1998. Vince married Christian/pop singer Amy Grant in March 2000. They have one daughter, Corrina Grant Gill, born March 12, 2001.
Gill, along with his wife Amy, are fans of the Nashville Predators. They have been season ticket holders since the opening season and are often shown on the jumbo screen. In the 2007 playoffs, he and Amy sang the national anthem for each game.
Though Gill never attended college, he's a big fan of the University of Oklahoma football team. He also attends nearly every men's basketball game at Belmont University in Nashville.

Bragg: San Marcos is biking where we fear to tread
Updated 11:44 pm, Sunday, August 12, 2012
SAN MARCOS — Clay Hollingsworth, shirtless and out of breath, burst through the doors of the Bike Cave on a hot morning, rolling his bicycle with him.
"What's up?" student worker Colin Bromley asked, looking up from a conversation.
"Broken pedal."
"Come on in."
Within minutes, Hollingsworth had his pedal. Had he been a new customer, Cromley would've sold him a used pedal for $1. Since Hollingsworth bought the bike — built from salvaged parts — from the Bike Cave, it was free.
This sort of scene happens dozens of times daily at the Bike Cave, a bicycle cooperative that's the equivalent of the perfect neighbor who will help anyone repair or replace anything.

The Cave, operating out of the belly of a services building on the main campus of Texas State University, is a one-stop shop for bicycle parts and repair. It's funded by Texas State's Department of Auxiliary Services, which runs the school's shuttle bus fleet.
Anyone can come in and buy a rebuilt bicycle that's substantially cheaper than new ones for sale at retail stores. Or they can buy salvaged parts to repair or upgrade a bike.
And, more important, the Bike Cave operates as a corollary of British author Anne Ritchie's most famous line: "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime."
"If someone wants us to fix their bike," Bromley says, "we'll do it, even though we'd rather not do it that way. Instead, we'll ask them if they've got a couple of hours ... and we'll show them how to fix it themselves."
The Bike Cave does that for free.
That's what Patrick Steves was doing later that morning. Bromley and part-time worker Sean Welch showed Steves a few tuneups for the bike he bought for $100 — the Bike Cave's top price, by the way — a week earlier.
It's not surprising Texas State would support the Bike Cave. Campus parking spaces are rarer than a $10 textbook. Shuttle buses that move students from apartment complexes and satellite parking lots are rolling sardine cans, packed with kids and backpacks. Encouraging bike use takes kids off buses and gives remaining riders more elbow room to text friends.
Down the road in San Antonio, the city is spending taxpayer money and administrative attention on the promotion of bicycling as an alternative way to get around.
Good luck with that. San Antonio's got 412 square miles of land. Pedaling from an affordable apartment off Loop 1604 to any of the city's colleges, even if there were bike lanes, would be a life-threatening, time-swallowing trip. And it'd be a hot one, too.
Meanwhile, in the tiny college town of San Marcos, the ride from the farthest apartment complexes to the campus is two or three miles. Unlike Sun Belt metro areas, the town's retail business — other than the gigantic outlet malls — sprang up in proximity to the campus. That means most of a Texas State student's needs — books, bars, food and housing — are on that three-mile stretch of Aquarena Springs Drive or adjacent streets.
San Antonio's bike master plan calls for initiatives to build miles of cycling paths and for educational programs to "institutionalize" bicycle usage. It will take years to fund and build out.
Back up the road, it was easy to get things rolling. Back in 2005, student Matt Akins was fixing bicycles from his dorm room, using spare parts he had collected. Word spread. As demand grew, it got the school's attention, which offered space and money for the Bike Cave in 2007.
The Cave also gets funds from local benefactors and accepts donations of cash or bicycles. Every year, Bromley says, when campus police impound bicycles abandoned after graduation or transfer, the Bike Cave gets dibs on the best ones, which are sold to fund the operation. Others are stripped for parts.
"We want to get people on bikes," says Welch. "Anybody who wants to come here can. If they do, we will help them."

The blog I need help with is jemimawyman.wordpress.com.
whenever i select and upload a "feature image" it not only appears at the top but also appears on the page....i just want the image to appear once, as the "featured image"....please help....
This usually happens when you insert it as well. Just do nothing other than upload it and select it as Featured Image. Then it should only appear once, unless there's a bug in the theme.
thanks for your advice.....maybe it is a glitch? i have tried and tried and it still appears in the main body as well as the featured image....is there another way around this? can i have image hidden or clear when they are in the media gallery? but then selectable as a featured image?
You are using the Gallery feature on that Page and any image you upload to that Page will be included in the Gallery, unless you use "excludes" so it doesn't appear in the Gallery. Once you exclude the image from the Gallery, you can select it as the Featured Image and it will appear as a header on the Page.
Using excludes in a Gallery is explained here: http://en.support.wordpress.com/images/gallery/#gallery-shortcode and a demo showing this here http://agallerydemo.wordpress.com/2011/03/08/gallery-with-excluded-image/

The Flying Monkey Villa is a villa nestled in the beautiful jungle as it meets the ocean, with stunning panoramic ocean/jungle views from all areas of this luxurious villa. Enjoy the private 'never-ending' infinity pool from the lower bedroom level. Walk straight out onto a large deck and enjoy margaritas you can make at the built-in custom outdoor wet bar. Enjoy the lush tropical landscaping while sitting in the patio furniture, or floating in your private one of a kind vanishing edge swimming pool. Enjoy dinner a level up on your private wrap around deck with pass-through bar seating area, which includes a beautiful thatched palapa, to allow you to dine and visit well into the evening.
The spectacular pool and terrace add an additional 800 square feet of outdoor living space to total over 2700 square feet of indoor/outdoor living space.
The views from every room in the villa allow you to become one with the wildlife of Costa Rica. The Costa Rican wildlife is abundant, especially in the morning when the birds are singing and the monkeys are 'flying' tree to tree across the jungle just below your pool. Toucans and Aracari come by for a visit and the local iguanas will be sure to greet you, while you are sitting under the palapa or relaxing around your private pool.
The lower level includes two bedrooms, each with their own private full bathroom, with his/her sinks. The laundry room and a small living area (that fits a inflatable bed) is also on the lower level. The upper level of the villa includes a spacious living room, dining area, powder room and fully equipped kitchen with stainless steel appliances and granite countertops.
For dining enjoy a huge variety of cuisine at the local restaurants or create your own meals in your kitchen or barbeque on your deck.
The villa is located in a gated community with 24 hour guarded security, so you can rest at ease.
You will also have cable TV and a dock station for your Ipod or Iphone in the living room, as well as WiFi throughout the villa.
There is air conditioning throughout the villa, or you may wish to turn off the a/c and just open all of the screened doors and windows so the breezes and the sounds of the jungle are welcomed in.
Excluding the Holiday Season and Easter Week, your 7th night at the Flying Monkey villa is on us. Stay for a week and only pay for 6 nights.
Staying at the Flying Monkey will be a vacation to beat all.
This home was perfect for our family of 4 (2 university aged daughters) - great having essentially 2 master suites . The setting in the jungle within a gated community allowed us the sense of being away from it all but not too far away to be overly isolated. We could sit for hours either by the pool or on the balcony and enjoy the unobstructed majestic ocean views or the monkeys playing in the trees right outside the door. I would change absolutely nothing about the Flying Monkey. Perfect. The village of Dominical is a few km away and has some great places to eat. Do visit Nauyaca Falls - challenging hike but so worth it to swim in the pools at the base of the falls (you can also do a horseback riding tour to get there as well).
I find it difficult to find words that will truly describe the incredible beauty and serenity of the Flying Monkey Villa in the middle of the jungle. It comes with a stunning vanishing edge pool and all the amenities and comforts of home complete with the plastic blender In the poolside bar. The house is beautifully appointed with everything you could possibly want.From the deck overlooking the jungle to the breathtaking ocean view, I saw monkeys and Tucans, lots of iguanas and a sloth. A quick walk to the beach provided the only exercise I was looking for. Although the horseback riding on the beach was a bonus and the amazing birdwatching kept me entertained while lounging by the pool. Groceries and other little necessities were easily accessible either in the local village, Domonicalito, or just down the road in Dominical. I found it really helpful to have had a four-wheel-drive for exploring the surrounding hills an incredible views, and for the ride up to the incredibly entertaining bar The Jolly Roger. I would recommend this to anybody looking to enjoy a tropical paradise in the middle of the jungle, with all the comforts of home. The Palapa off the kitchen, complete with a beautiful barbeque, provided incredible evening breezes and a perfect place for a breakfast with nature.My only regret is that my 10 days is over and I have to go back home. But I will return!! Mark my words. It's my delight to provide this recommendation whole heartedly and unreservedly. Thank you so much Ian and Phyllis for leaving such an amazingly clean, well appointed and welcoming home away from home. The quick 30 minute airplane to San Jose was really convenient! . Pura Vida all the way!!! Gracias y adios!
As soon as you open the door to the Flying Monkey it takes your breath away! What a view! Everything you could ask for & more. You wake up every morning looking out onto the ocean & at night you have the waves lull you to sleep. Every evening we watched the red sun set while lounging in the infinity pool. And all the great little hideaways you can go to for a night of great food & entertainment. Having breakfast on the deck & watching the monkeys make their way through the trees or watch a toucan feed her young was awesome! It was a vacation to remember & hope to make it back again soon. Wonderful memories that will stay with us always.
Our stay at the Flying Monkey was incredible. We were two couples traveling together and this villa has everything we could have wanted or needed. The concierge was so helpful setting up excursions and adventures. We enjoyed coming back to the villa at the end of the day to float in the vanishing edge pool while enjoying the incredible sunset.
We will definitely be back. Thanks for sharing your beautiful villa with us.
This was our second holiday at the Flying Monkey and once again, we stayed for two weeks. This place is incredible. We travelled this time with our two young children and could not have asked for more. What a great place for a family. Our son basically lived in the pool, and because of its easy access from the bedrooms, our baby girl could be sleeping, while we were with our son at the pool. Bedtime with small children works great as we could be on the pool deck enjoying a swim and the sunset while they were asleep just inside.
We are always amazed at how well kept this villa is - in our opinion the best villa in Canto del Mar. The view is unbelievable, the pictures do not do it justice. We always feel safe and so comfortable in this very private villa. The villa is constantly being updated and well maintained.
We always find it hard to leave this paradise, but we know we will be back, so that helps.
We can't wait to return to the Flying Monkey.
The reason that I gave the Flying Monkey a three star review is because there were too many little things that could be improved upon but for which there wasn't a resolution during our visit. As we were staying over the Christmas holidays and were paying a premium for our stay, the house simply fell short.
First, the positives. Raul the concierge was incredibly responsive to our emails, phone calls and requests before and during the visit. No complaints here. Security was always present. You don't really hear your neighbors too much. The views are wonderful, as is the pool and the outdoor spaces. The pool is a good size and deep. Definitely the highlight of the stay.
Here is where the house fell short:
- Significant smell of mildew prevalent throughout the house and in the drawers (including on extra towels and bedding). There are mold spots all over the back of the curtains in one of the bedrooms.
- cleanliness was inadequate upon check in (example: I had to rewash the bedding).
- Bare bones supplies: no hand soap in any of the bathrooms, no extra rolls of toilet paper, no garbage bags, no dishwashing liquid, etc....basically no supplies to even get us started (not the norm compared to other vrbo rentals that we've experienced).
- poor water pressure throughout (most noticeable in the showers) with inconsistent hot/cold water. The shower head in the queen sized bedroom was essentially nonfunctional and needs to be replaced asap.
- Almost all of the extra bath towels and some hand towels had bleach stains all over them.
- Loud traffic noise from often-times busy road below (including loud trucks). Takes away from serenity.
- Pictures on the site are from a few years ago. The trees in front of the pool deck have since grown taller and block a lot of the beach below. Still pretty, but not an accurate representation.
- Side upper deck with table for outdoor eating is right in front of the neighbors living room. Might not bother some people, but for us it did not feel very private.
As parents and grandparents, we are excited to introduce our family - and yours - to our Costa Rican home and know that you will enjoy your time here .... the Pura Vida lifestyle.
Ian & Phyllis purchased this villa in 2012
We've traveled throughout several tropical countries before we experienced Costa Rica. We were mesmerized by the beauty of this lush destination on our first visit in 2007 and knew that we wanted to become part of this fabulous country. We have revisited Costa Rica on several occasions until we found the perfect home. We hope you love it as much as we do.
Dominical is where the jungle meets the ocean. Having monkeys, toucans, aracari, iguanas, sloths and other wildlife in our backyard is amazing. We had the pool built in December 2012, which will make your experience at this villa one of a kind.... something to remember. Or adventure to one of the local unspoiled, secluded beaches - so rare in most parts of the world.
Thank you So very much for sharing your Amazing villa with us. We had such an incredible time – definitely not long enough but a good taster for us to know we absolutely want to come back to only Villa #3 (the Flying Monkey). The weather during our stay was hot and humid so we got a lot of use of the pool…. Our concierge, Raul, couldn't do enough for us from beginning to end …. we will always treasure being our first holiday away together – and one that we are already planning on returning to continue to build upon …
We went horseback riding to the Nauyaca Falls where we enjoyed a Costa Rican breakfast and lunch with some white faced (capuchin) monkeys, macaw, peacocks and a toucan. The waterfalls were breath-taking and the 4 km. ride was not rushed at all. … Our spa day was at our villa where two lovely ladies … an amazing massage and wonderful pedicure. … We also enjoyed a morning stroll down to the beach across the road from our villa. … We went ziplining at Hacienda Baru, which is only about 10 minutes from the villa. This was another great experience in a UNICEF nature reserve where we saw sloths, agoutis and a friendly iguana who walked right up to us ...
We also arranged for a private chef to come in for two nights to prepare us a yummy meal … it was so nice to have someone shop and cook for you … We rented a 4x4 car and took a drive down the coast … within a few minutes of driving we got to see those Howler monkeys everyone has been talking about! … We went kayaking through the mangroves. We saw lots of wildlife including 3 or 4 sloths, monkeys and an assortment of birds plus a boa constrictor … then we raced home to catch the sunset.
The weather during our entire stay was hot and humid so the pool was our point of refreshment coming home and then spending hours on end just soaking up the scenery and talking about our adventures that day…
We couldn't have asked for more of our stay in your villa and we definitely plan to be back again real soon as we know there is so much more of this amazing place to explore.
Thanks again for sharing and we look forward to our return to Villa #3 (The Flying Monkey).
Within walking distance of your villa, explore Poza Azul - a beautiful waterfall and swimming hole. Or you can explore miles of sandy beaches - Playa Dominical, Playa Dominicalito, Playa Hermosa, Playa Ballena (Ballena National Park), Playa Ventanas - to name a few. Zip lining within 10 minutes, and only 25 minutes away is a great horseback tour to the Nauyaca Falls. Manuel Antonio National Park and its beaches are only 45 minutes away.
Excluding the Holiday Season and Easter Week, your 7th night at the Flying Monkey villa is on us. Stay for a week and only pay for 6 nights.

A Chelsea fan is set to earn over £20,000 thanks to former manager Jose Mourinho.
The Daily Mail says a Chelsea fan who pocketed Mourinho's Premier League winner's medal stands to make more than £20,000 after putting it up for auction.
Company director Sebastian Kayll, 37, grabbed the souvenir after the coach threw it into the crowd as Chelsea celebrated their second successive title against Manchester United at Stamford Bridge in 2006.
When asked about his medal-chucking, Mourinho said at the time: "The medal was for everybody but I think the person who got it is a lucky guy who goes home with a fantastic memory or goes to eBay and makes a fortune."

If you're going to target certain businesses for a tax hike in a reeling economy, the least you should do is be polite to their owners.
Let's say a small business owner has just warned a state legislative committee that "if this bill goes through, I don't have a plan B, and this will wipe us out." Maybe the woman is exaggerating and maybe she isn't. Basic manners still demand that lawmakers respond with a sympathetic word or two. After all, they are seeking to reduce her income by at least some amount (in this case, with a measure intended to capture sales tax from out-of-state retailers that have local Internet "affiliates").
Instead, Rep. Joel Judd, D-Denver — a blunt but usually likeable fellow — elected to pick on the woman's business model.
"You might not want to build a business on helping people avoid their sales taxes," Judd said at Wednesday's Finance Committee hearing, which heard testimony on several bills to eliminate business tax credits and exemptions.
Not long before, Judd had referred dismissively to the "junk- mail industry" during testimony of Brad Cohen, general manager of Valpak of Colorado. "I don't know how to say to (constituents), 'We're going to take money away from educating your child in order to save a tax benefit for the junk-mail industry,'" Judd explained.
Most of us use the term "junk mail" in everyday conversation, but Cohen obviously prefers to describe himself as a direct-mail marketer. Is it really too much to ask that lawmakers extend that courtesy to an industry when poised to mandate that it extract an extra 2.9 percent from its customers?
One committee member (I couldn't tell who) actually asked another direct-mail marketer "How much did your company pay in corporate income tax last year?" — as if the witness were a common scofflaw.
When I caught up with Judd the next day, I asked whether he voluntarily pays sales tax to the Revenue Department every time he makes an online purchase with an out-of-state vendor who isn't required to include the tax. He said the Internet sites he uses "all seem to charge me Colorado sales tax."
Judd is either a rare model citizen or someone who could use a lesson in comparison shopping.
Not even an occasional book from Amazon? No, he said.
Judd considers local websites that carry click-through advertisements for out-of-state vendors to be complicit in tax avoidance. I consider them complicit in the all-American mission of moving merchandise.
To be fair to Judd, lawmakers are in a terrible budgetary bind. Once the state Supreme Court signaled last year that it was legal to do away with tax exemptions without a popular vote — in defiance of the Taxpayer's Bill of Rights — it was only a matter of time before the governor and General Assembly swiveled their attention toward these low-hanging fruit.
The mantra among Democrats is that everyone needs to share in the sacrifice — including business. That's appealing, unless it's meant to imply that the private sector has somehow escaped the worst ravages of the recession. In fact, nearly all of the net job loss in Colorado over the past two years has been in private employment.
Those job losses — as opposed to the devious schemes of executives — help explain the 42.4 percent collapse in state corporate income tax collections in fiscal 2008-09. Or at least it's an explanation that lawmakers might entertain before they attempt to embarrass another direct-mail wretch.

The combination of high quality white tea with the delicate peach flavor makes this tea very flavorful and refreshing whether you make an Iced tea or Hot tea.
- Ingredients: White tea, apples, peaches, safflower, natural flavors.
- Steeping Instructions: 1 teaspoon / 8oz. water/ 3-5 minutes.
We usually make Iced Tea 1 gallon at a time and keep it in the refrigerator and drink as a healthy alternative. ICED TEA instructions:
- Heat 1 gallon of water to a point where it is about to boil.
- Remove water from heat.
- Place 5 – 7 tablespoons of tea in your tea strainer/bag.
- Place tea bag in hot water and let steep for 2-5 mins.
- Remove tea bag and place tea in refrigerator to chill.
- If you would like to sweeten your tea and really bring out the flavor, then add some sugar or honey. Once tea is chilled serve and enjoy!
Note: if you plan on serving your tea with Ice, then you need to account for the dilution effect it will have on tea. To offset dilution of ice, use more tea (i.e. 6-8 tablespoons of tea). This will make more of a concentrate which will balance out perfectly with a bit of ice.

يبدأ البراندنج …. حيث ينتهي التسويق
if you have a new business you are considerng to launch, or you already have your current business you need to develop, Here are five beginner's rules of branding that have held true for nearly 100 years:
1. Don't have a generic name.
Generic names make it more difficult for your prospect or existing client to remember you.
2. The less you offer, the more you're remembered.
Offering too many products or services weakens your brand name, which customers will always associate with the product or service that first put you on their radar.
3. If you want to expand, launch a separate brand.
offering too much under the same brand name is a mistake every single time.
One of the biggest cases of brand-extension failure is Microsoft. Sure, Microsoft is still an industry leader in some key markets — but at one point the company completely dominated the tech market. Then it decided to release tons of new products and services under the Microsoft name.
Fortunately, if you're thinking of starting a new brand, being a person is a lot better than being a faceless corporation.
4. Promote what you do, not what you're selling.
You can see so many companies saying things like, "At our company, we offer unique offerings."
The problem with this strategy? No matter how hard you try to convince them, most customers won't care about your "unique value proposition." This is why Pepsi beats Coke in taste tests but is still second in market share.
So, instead of promoting what you sell, you should focus instead on what you help people accomplish. Specifically, that means the job that you help them do — one they wouldn't be able to do by themselves.
5. Ratings and reviews are your sales people.
Most people believe that they cannot close a sale without a set of interpersonal communication skills, in fact .. customers are much better equipped to do the selling.
Today, while the marketing funnel is longer and more complex than ever before, ratings and reviews are still just as important.
6. What does your brand represent?
When you're new and growing, you need marketing to get the word out. But once people know about your brand, only the perceived value of your brand name will keep them coming back as customers.
You can still be successful if you don't have a strong brand. Plenty of generic companies are really good at marketing and know how to set up the perfect marketing funnel for each of their lead sources so they can scale to their hearts' content.
But if your brand doesn't represent anything, customers won't keep coming back. They might try you out once or twice, but that's it. Customers stick with companies they like and remember for the long haul, not just the most affordable product or service they can find.
So, ask yourself, "What does my brand represent?"

This is my starter. She's a messy girl, ain't she?
Whatever, man. We both know you don't read my blog because I kiss up with overly-stylized Country Happy Times Living glamor shots of my yeast culture.
Glamor shots of my yeast culture: something you never even knew you wanted.
So why make sourdough?
The best and most beautiful breads I've ever made started with a homegrown sourdough starter.
Flavor, bitches!
Not having to buy yeast.
Increased gluten tolerance/improved grain digestibility.
Enhanced nutrient availability.
Superior sexiness. So many reasons, really. So let's have at it, shall we?
The Flour
People can be annoyingly, EXASPERATINGLY stickler-ish about this. But really? Just use some fucking flour. White? Okay. Wheat? Great! Rye? Fantasticats!
The fastest way to start your starter is with a whole grain flour, because there are more live microorganisms on it. But like I said, use what feels good. Some people have multiple starters: one white, one wheat, one rye…etc. To me, this is a waste of space and more starter than I can realistically handle with a regular bread-baking schedule. If I'd like a half wheat bread, I'll just keep that in mind when I'm measuring out flours for the bread recipe. If I want something that's all or mostly wheat, same deal. And if I want rye bread, it's not gonna snag my fishnets if I have to use a white or wheat or white-wheat starter and then use 100% rye flour in the recipe. That's bread, misfits. Diversity, bitches. The staff of fucking life. It should adjust to MY needs, not the other way around.
The staff of fucking life!
Sorry, I just wanted to say that again. Anywhoo…
I like to use filtered water, because it's devoid of chlorine and other stuff that can keep your yeast from reproducing as aggressively. Yeah, you heard me: yeast likes it ROUGH, and I'm not gonna stand in the way of the yeast's getting some the way it wants to get some. So filtered. Bottled. Whatever.
But honestly? Your straight-up tap will probably work just fine.
Additives, or, Just Say No
Some people like to add things to the flour and water mix when they're getting going. Things like whole, unwashed bunches of grapes and other such manner of fluff. They feel that this increases the amount and diversity of flora in the mix. Now you may be asking yourself, "Self, how does Bad Mama Genny feel about the use of grapes and other additives to start off a sourdough starter?" Well, you should just ask me, folks, just ask.
What's that? You want to know how I feel about the use of grapes and other additives to start off a sourdough starter? Well, I'll tell you!
The BMG is not impressed.
Does this increase the number and variety of organisms in the initial starter? Yes, indisputably yes. Well, isn't more better? Not in my opinion. You want the organisms that naturally feed on grain. And when we drop a bunch of grapes into the mix, what kind of microorganisms are we introducing, hmmmm?
The kind that naturally feed on grapes.
Oh, but wait a minute, aren't we making bread? Not grape jelly?
BINGO, MOTHERFUCKERS! We are making bread, NOT GRAPE JELLY!
Plus, the use of such additives is vaguely insulting to yeast. Yeah, I said it. If I were yeast, I'd be fucking insulted if someone dropped me a condescending bunch of grapes and was all, "oh, you look like you could use some help there, wussy yeast." NO I DON'T, BITCHES! I mean…uh, no, the yeast doesn't need that help. And it doesn't NEED YOUR PITY, either. There are PLENTY of microorganisms in your air, TRUST me. Your flour and water will be FINE. I began my first starter in a New York City apartment building that was completely devoid of natural light, regularly sprayed for roaches (lovely), and infused with the vapors of my angst. And my starter was bubbly and active just one day in, people! If yeast can thrive in those conditions (THE ANGST, people, THE ANGST!)…
well, let's just say, I feel pretty confident about your starter's chances.
Doing It, Already
Day 1: Grab yourself a one-quart container with a lid (glass is ideal, plastic is okay, not a fan of metal). Now toss in 3/4 cup flour and 3/4 cup water. Mix vigorously, being sure to beat in plenty of air. Scrape down the sides as well as you can. Starter that stays on the side can dry up, die, or grow mold. Cover it with a kitchen towel or the lid just kinda balanced on top (not screwed on tight, and not sealed. This baby produces CO2). Then leave it in a room-temperature, draft-free place until tomorrow.
Day 2: The next day, take a look. You might see some bubbly activity–this is great! Dump out half the mixture and feed again, just like before. Cover loosely and let it sit undisturbed, just like before.
Day 3: Dump out half the mixture and feed again.
Day 4: Repeat.
Day 5: Repeat
And so on. After about a week, it should be ready to use–you'll know because it will double in volume between feedings and smell strong and sour.
At this point, loosely cover that starter, move it to the refrigerator, and keep it there for maintenance.
If this happens earlier than a week, fantastic, go ahead and proceed to maintenance. But as a general rule, I don't trust the microbial stability of sourdough starter until it's at least five days old. At this point, it's usually strong enough to maintain its pH and fight off mold and other undesirables.
At various points, you will probably see a dark liquid floating above your starter–this is just alcohol, a natural byproduct of yeast fermentation, separating out. Just stir it back in and carry on.
Maintaining your Starter
Your starter will live in the refrigerator, where yeast will reproduce slowly. Slowly, they're not dead or suspended indefinitely all Walt Disney-style. Don't forget about it or anything–ideally, you should take starter out to play once a week. But.
People can be such whiners about this. They'll be all, "OMG if you don't feed your starter every week the manatees will die and the stability of democracy will be compromised oh no oh no oh no!" Screw that, man. Ideally, once weekly. But I get it. Life happens. At times, I have neglected that starter in ways both humorous and appalling. It bounces back like you would not believe.
SO! Taking your starter out to play entails either:
*tossing half the starter and feeding it equal parts flour and water (you should be experiencing deja vu here) before putting it back in the fridge
*taking out half the starter to use in a recipe, feeding the rest equal parts flour and water, and putting it back in the fridge.
Using Your Starter
Most recipes calling for starter will want you to use "fresh" or "proofed" starter–this means starter that has been recently fed and puffed, NOT starter that's been sitting in your fridge dormant for three weeks. So go ahead and feed the rest of the starter and put it back in the fridge, but then turn your attention back to what you just removed for the recipe. Feed it equal parts flour and water, cover it loosely, and let it sit and "proof" for at least 8 hours before you use it.
As your starter ages and develops, the flavor will only become more interesting and complex. Some bakeries in France claim to be using the same starter they developed in Napoleonic times. And you know? That doesn't gross me out even a little. In fact, it gives me a serious ladyboner.
If Your Starter Grows Mold:
Here's how to save it. Scrape off the moldy part and a few inches under it. Spoon out the starter as carefully as possible, avoiding knocking into any moldy areas, and put it into a new, clean container–you may not have much, but it doesn't take much to start a new civilization. Now give it a good feeding. Flour, water, some vigorous stirring. Really beat in the air bubbles. Then lightly cover the poor, sick beast and leave it alone for a day. Feel familiar? Yup. I want you to follow the steps you followed when you began this whole thing. You'll want to rehab your starter by feeding it once a day for a few days in a row. When the starter doubles itself easily between feedings, it's back to its old self, and you can go back to maintenance.
Feel confident? Feel good? Feel ready to get tangy?
Stay tuned, for a basic, no-knead, overnight sourdough loaf recipe, and a Sugar 'n Spice Sourdough Cookie recipe.
In the meantime, motivate your fine self with…
this Sourdough, No-Knead, Cinnamon Raisin Swirl Bread.
Or this Sourdough Polka-Dot Focaccia.
Or these Sourdough Breakfast Pizzas.

Are you a business owner thinking:
I'm working like a dog, but not making the money to prove it.
I keep thinking things will change, but they aren't.
I can't do everything, but what can I let go of?
When a client came to me worried that she would need to get a j-o-b to make her payroll, I found her an additional $2000/month in recurring income – just by tweaking something she was already doing.
Like most business owners, I used to get stressed every time I took some time off. Now I take 4-6 vacations a year and am having my best year ever. You may not want to travel like I do, but I'll bet you would like more time with family, hobbies, or even the fun parts of your business. I help my clients create a sane schedule that allows them the ability to do that.
I offer more than just one-to-one coaching; I also offer products and mini-courses for people who would rather 'DIY'.
If you are a business owner ready for a year where you make more money and never say "I have no free time!", schedule a free call to explore if we are a good fit.
There's a secret that will transform your business AND give you more free time:
You'll get the most out of working with me if:
- You are an established solopreneur/small business owner with 5 or fewer employees.
- You realize that the way you've been doing things just isn't working anymore and you're open to trying something new.
- Your business is in a growth phase – or you want to lay the foundation for growth.
- You are willing to invest time and money to create lasting change in your business.
If this describes YOU, contact me to discuss how we can work together.
I work with clients in many locations via phone or Skype.

KTM has launched the Duke 390 in the UK recently, and it is soon going to see Indian streets as well. And now KTM's CEO Seftan Pierer announced that they are planning to introduce two new variants of their much hyped 390 Duke motorcycle in India. Speaking to a news agency Mr. Pierer said "KTM will debut a 'faired' model (KTM Moto3 350) and a 'travel / touring' model (KTM Enduro 350), which will be based on the KTM 390 Duke platform, and will share the bike's 375cc single-cylinder engine." He further added, "KTM will continue to rollout models every six months, with the faired sport bike and enduro model included in that plan." The most surprising element of these announcements was that KTM is planning to develop a 180cc made for India bike. He stated that the Bajaj-KTM alliance is doing fabulous and they will keep doing wonders in future as well.
As Mr. Pierer said that they will launch a new motorcycle every six months, we can expect Duke 390's faired version and touring versions to follow the launch of the bike in early, 2013. As far as the pricing is concerned, Duke 390 is expected around Rs. 2 lakh, but the faired and touring version of the bike will be expensive. The faired version of the bike will target the enthusiasts, who love stylish plus performance motorcycles. While the touring version of the KTM Duke 390 will offer all the qualities that one looks in a ideal touring bike, like a higher tank capacity and front fairing to deflect the breeze blast at higher speeds. KTM Duke 390 produces 44bhp of peak power and 35Nm of peak torque and weighs only 150 kilogram, which profits an amazing energy to weight rate and allows the bike to hug 160kmph redline without much attempt.

Everything in life has a certain risk attached to it. Obviously some activities are less risky than others. Eating peanuts whilst sitting in your garden chair is very low risk; whereas driving a race car substantially increases risk and potential damage (to both materials and yourself). There are a lot of examples that fall between these two, or could even be considered less or more risky.
In life humans make a rough estimate decision whether the risk of an activity fits or exceeds their own risk tolerance. This tolerance will vary from person to person. Some humans take calculated risks, others avoid risk, whereas some over risk (thrill seekers).
Companies, investments and trading activities are also exposed to risk. Risk management is employed to control these risks.
First of all, when engaging in Forex trading specifically, there has to be the willingness to risk. No matter what risk management is employed, a certain degree of account drawdown will always occur and this has to be acceptable for the trader (both from a cash flow and mental point of view) before gains can become realistic and achieved.
Simply put, Forex is a risky business. The willingness to risk plus having the confidence to trade (trading psychology / lack of fear) are the stepping stones to success.
Secondly, every Forex trader will have their own risk tolerance. For instance, some strategies could prove to be too risky for a trader's trading psychology. It is important to know that level and limit so as to stay within those borders. A trader must find harmony between their risk tolerance, Forex strategies, and own trading psychology.
With that said, once the risky nature of Forex trading is accepted and one's own risk tolerance level has been understood, it is important to note that risk management is crucial for trading account survival and growth. Lots of emphasize is placed on risk management in the world of Forex trading – and that makes good sense.
The exact risk management parameters must depend on the risk tolerance and the trading goals of each trader. Ambitious goals will require more risk tolerance; and vice versa.
However, [tweetable alt=""]no matter what tolerance or goals a trader has, Forex must be treated as a business to achieve succes[/tweetable]s. Trading should never ever be a thrill seeking activity – even if your risk tolerance is very high. That is the threshold when trading potentially becomes gambling. Proper risk management and treatment of trading as business (trading plan, strategies, money management, trade management) are requirements to succeed. Here is the flow:
Willingness to risk –> level of risk tolerance –> amount of risk / trading capital –> risk management
In this phase, traders must become strict and be equipped with an iron discipline. Risk management rules are non-negotiable. End of story.
That means whatever rules Forex traders determine, they must stick to them. Of course, after careful analysis and consideration, Forex traders can adjust their risk management parameters to more suitable levels. But when in the heat of the battle of trading, those rules are golden.
There are several golden rules of risk management in Forex trading.
The number 1 rule is: protect your trading capital. Without your trading capital, there is nothing left to trade. The business has gone bankrupt. Retail stores without stock/inventory can close their doors too. For Forex traders their capital is their stock. Forex traders must protect their risk capital so that they can keep their store open and trade another day. Most Forex traders will bust 1 or more accounts before achieving success. If it's a small amount relatively to their total capital, then these traders create a 2nd chance for themselves.
How can a Forex trader protect their trading and risk capital? Here is a list:
1) When using leverage, it is vital that traders use a Stop Loss. Without a Stop Loss the entire capital is at risk, the correct position sizing cannot be established, and the risk cannot be controlled and limited.
2) For any given level of risk, the reward must justify it. This is called the risk-return tradeoff. Potential return rises with an increase in risk. Because Forex trading is a high risk activity, the trader needs to match that risk with a sufficient reward to justify the business. What can be considered sufficient depends on the risk tolerance and risk management of each trader. However as a rule of thumb, a trader wants to achieve more reward than their biggest drawdown.
3) Minimize the drawdown via Forex strategies. The lower the drawdown the better. Forex strategies support can achieve that goal and provide a roadmap for traders.
4) Reduce drawdown by limiting the risk taken on any given trade.
5) Employ lower levels of leverage. With lower leverages the risk of losing the trading capital decreases.
6) Employ proper money management rules.
It is important to choose a risk percentage to minimize the drawdown (DD). A trader that does not have any risk levels in mind, could be risking 10% then 30%, then 20% on any given trade. That certainly would translate into a high probability of account blow-up (nothing left).
What should that risk percentage be? The information above might have given a rough guidance but let's crunch some hard numbers.
A rule of thumb often used by Forex traders is not to risk more than 5% on any given trade. However, 5% is on the high side. Most traders would agree that a trader should trade less than 3% per trade. Commonly used risk percentages are 1 and 2% per trade. The risk percentage certainly will depend on what strategies are used and what experience level a trader has. And also the purpose of the account, which can vary from account to account.
a) The less experience, the better it is to start with less risk, low risk or even no risk (demo).
b) A long-term strategy usually less trading opportunities on average than a scalping strategy, which means that it can endure a higher risk percentage.
c) The percentage of the risk capital of 1 particular account compared to the total trading capital, and percentage of the total trading capital compared to the trader's total capital. The higher, the lower the DD should be, the less risk an account can entail.
Another way of calculating the desired risk management level is via this formula:
The accepted account loss divided by the largest drawdown (DD) equals risk percentage.
OR: Loss / DD = risk %.
Here is an example: Forex trader WXY has a strategy ABC that has had at max a drawdown of 30 units of risk. Trader WXY does not want tloss more than 40% on the account. To avoid hitting the drawdown level, the trader WXY can risk 1.33% per trade (40/30) and not exceed the drawdown. If a trader wants to increase the likelihood of hitting the drawdown maximum, a trader can add a buffer to the largest drawdown to be more secure. In our example, a trader can add a third to the drawdown risk which makes it 40 units (30*1.33). In that case: 40/40= 1.0% per trade.
