Update: It seems that the pressure of the backlash and Firefox' AMO policy has prevailed, and the NoScript extension has been "un-eviled". For now. Trust is a lot harder to regain, however, and I will not be using it again for my part.

Ahead of the cutting-edge
I've been waiting for the second beta of Firefox 2.0 for quite some time now. Originally, it was meant to be released in mid-August. Then, the date was pushed up to the 23rd, now it has again been pushed up to the 30th. Losing patience, I've finally installed the first release candidate for this version. And if it's a hundred kinds of bug-ridden, I don't care. I guess I'm obsessed with software updates. I have to use the latest version of anything. ^_^

Hospital Charges in U.S. Jump 10% in a Year to Treat Chest Pain
June 2 (Bloomberg) -- The charge to treat Medicare patients with chest pain at U.S. hospitals rose 10 percent to $18,568 in just a year, the biggest rise seen among the most common inpatient procedures, according to federal data.
Average charges for most hospital services, meanwhile, rose less than 5 percent from 2011 to 2012, according to a report released today by the U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. It is the second year CMS has released the data, gathered from more than 3,000 hospitals that take patients in Medicare, the U.S. program for the elderly and disabled.
Last year, CMS reported that hospital pricing for medical care varied widely, and that trend continued in the latest report. In California alone, for instance, the price of treating chest pain averaged $58,988 in the Sacramento area and $11,619 around Los Angeles, according to the fiscal 2012 data.
The numbers "provide a better understanding of Medicare utilization, the burden of chronic conditions among beneficiaries and the implications for our health-care system, and how this varies by where beneficiaries are located," said Bryan Sivak, chief technology officer for the Department of Health and Human Services, which oversees Medicare.
Medicare released data on hospital charges for the first time last year. Medicare and private insurance companies tend not to pay the full amount of what hospitals bill. The average Medicare payment for chest pain is $2,874, according to the data. Today, the government also made available information on outpatient services and chronic conditions.
Datapalooza Conference
The release, required under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, came during the annual Health Datapalooza conference that brings together technology experts and government officials to discuss trends in health care.
Officials from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration are scheduled to talk at the conference tomorrow about the agency's release of adverse event data on drugs from 2004 to 2013. The information will be available in a format technology developers can use to construct health applications, the agency said today.
Adverse events had been accessible only through Freedom of Information requests. The agency plans to expand the available data to recalls and product labeling, the FDA said in a statement.

Lynyrd Skynyrd 's "Sweet Home Alabama" is one of the great Southern rock anthems of all time, and now the tune has achieved an impressive milestone. Yahoo! Music's Chart Watch blog reports that, as of this week, the track has been downloaded more than 3 million times, paid downloads that is. The song was released in 1974, which makes it the oldest tune to ever hit the 3 million mark in digital sales.
In fact, only one other song released during the 1970s has surpassed the 3 million paid-downloads plateau, the 1975 Queen classic "Bohemian Rhapsody," which currently has been downloaded 3,362,000 times.

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.

After dropping two of three to the Pirates this weekend, the Phils have now lost consecutive series to the Pittsburgh and the Washington Nationals. They managed seven runs yesterday, but came into the game having plated just seven in their previous four games and losing all four.
The good news is pretty good. The Phils have the best record in baseball. The bad news is that with Brown up and Victorino back, there's no more reinforcements on the way and the Phils are still struggling to get offense. Rollins smashed a foul ball off his knee on Saturday, missed some time against the Pirates and will likely miss some more, but there's nobody else coming and they are eighth in the NL in runs scored for the season. That's going to be enough to get them a whole lot of wins in the regular season, but getting a whole lot of wins in the regular season isn't the goal for this team.
The Pirates took the opening game of the series 2-1. Singles by Hamels, Rollins and Utley helped the Phils to a 1-0 lead in the top of the sixth, but the Pirates tied the game up in the sixth on a walk, a bunt a wild pitch and a sac fly. Hamels was fantastic in the game, allowing just one run on one hit and three walks in eight innings, but the Phils didn't score after the sixth. Baez gave a two-out single to Xavier Paul in the twelfth. Paul stole second and came in to score the game-winning run on a single by Tabata.
The Phils lost game two 6-3. Rollins led off the first with a double after fouling a ball hard off of his knee and came around to eventually score on a ground ball by Howard, putting the Phils up 1-0. Rollins would be out of the game in the third, replace at short by Valdez. The Pirates grabbed the lead with two runs in the bottom of the first off of Kendrick, getting a doubles from Paul and Jose Tabata around a single by Andrew McCutchen. Victorino and Ibanez started the fourth with singles by Victorino and Ibanez. Victorino came in to score on a ground out by Brown and the game was tied at 2-2. Brandon Wood hit a two-run homer off of Kendrick in the fourth, putting the Pirates up 4-2. Romero allowed a run on two walks and a double in the seventh and Baez another in the eighth on a walk, a couple of ground outs and a wild pitch. Down 6-2, the Phils loaded the bases with two outs in the ninth. Polanco delivered a single to right, cutting the lead to 6-3, but Utley flew to left behind him to end the game.
Yesterday the Phils won game three 7-3 behind an impressive 14-hit attack and seven strong innings from Halladay.
The Phillies are 35-24 on the year after beating the Pittsburgh Pirates 7-3 yesterday afternoon. They have lost four of five, but remain in first place in the NL East, three games ahead of the second-place Marlins.
Halladay got the start for the Phillies and went seven innings, allowing two runs on six hits and a walk. One of the hits went for extra-bases, a two-run homer. He struck out six.
Xavier Paul led off the bottom of the first with a single to right and Josh Harrison bunted him to second with the first out. Andrew McCutchen was next and he grounded to short, moving Paul to third with two outs. It brought Neil Walker to the plate and Halladay got ahead of him and looked like he had him struck out, but didn't get the call on a close 0-2 pitch. Walker hit a 1-2 pitch out to center, putting the Pirates on top 2-0. Halladay screamed a curse and a heated discussion between Halladay and home plate umpire Angel Hernandez ensued in which Polanco had to help usher Halladay away from the ump. Halladay struck Lyle Overbay out swinging for the third out.
Garrett Jones started the second with a single to left. Brandon Wood was next and he popped a ball into shallow left. Valdez chased it down and caught it near the foul line. Jones was way off of first base, thinking the ball would drop, and Valdez made a long throw to double him off of first. Dusty Brown grounded to third for the third out.
Pitcher Jason McDonald singled to left to start the third and Paul bunted him to second with the first out. Harrison grounded out and McCutchen struck out looking to leave him stranded.
Third time in three innings that the Pirates got their leadoff man aboard against Halladay.
With the lead cut to 2-1, Halladay set the Pirates down in order in the fourth.
He started the fifth up 3-2. He struck out wood and Brown while setting Pittsburgh down in order.
The Phils were up 4-2 when Halladay pitched the sixth. He got the first two batters before walking McCutchen, but then struck Walker out looking to leave McCutchen stranded.
Halladay got the first two to start the seventh before Wood singled into center. Righty Matt Diaz hit for the pitcher hit for Dusty Brown and hit a ball down the third base line. Polanco made a nice play to backhand the ball, but his throw to first was offline on the home plate side and Howard couldn't handle it. Diaz had a single and Polanco was charged with an error that allowed Wood to move up to third. The pitcher Daniel Moskos was due next and righty Jose Tabata hit for him. Tabata smoked a line drive that looked ticketed for right field, but Utley made a fantastic diving play to snare the line drive and end the inning with the runners stranded.
Huge play by Utley saves a run for the Phils.
Contreras started the eighth with the Phillies up 5-2. He got Paul on a ball handled by Howard for the first out, but Harrison followed that with a double and came around to score when McCutchen followed with a single. 5-3. Bastardo came in to pitch to the switch-hitter Walker and got him on a fly ball to center for the second out before Overbay moved McCutchen to second with a single. Bastardo struck Jones out swinging to leave both runners stranded.
Madson started the ninth with the Phils up 7-3. Wood led off with a single that was deflected by Polanco and went in to left, but Madson set down the next three Pirates behind him.
Madson threw 21 pitches in the game, Bastardo 13 and Contreras ten.
The Phillies lineup against righty Jason McDonald went (1) Victorino (2) Polanco (3) Utley (4) Howard (5) Ibanez (6) Ruiz (7) Brown (8) Valdez. Rollins on the bench after fouling a ball off his knee in Saturday's game, so Victorino leads off and Valdez plays short. Ruiz hits sixth, breaking up the lefties Ibanez and Brown, which is too high for him.
Utley singled to right with two outs in the first, but Howard struck out swinging to leave him stranded.
Down 2-0, the Phils went in order in the second.
Victorino singled with two outs in the third and took second on a wild pitch, but Polanco grounded to third to leave him at second.
Utley walked to start the fourth and went to second on a wild pitch before Howard walked. With Ibanez at the plate, a passed ball by Brown allowed the runners to move up to second and third. Ibanez hit a fly ball to deep center for the first out, allowing Utley to tag and score, cutting the lead to 2-1, and moving Howard up to third. Ruiz was hit by a curve ball he didn't try real hard to get out of the way of, putting men on first and third with one out for Brown. Brown smashed a ball back up the middle that hit the umpire. Brown had a single, but the runners had to hold and the bases were loaded for Valdez. Valdez hit into a double-play to end the frame.
Hugely unfortunate for the Phils, who can use all the help they can get scoring runs.
McDonald walked Halladay, Victorino and Polanco on a total of 13 pitches to load the bases to start the fifth. Righty Chris Resop came in to pitch to Utley and Utley hithttp://www.philliesflow.com/wp-admin/post-new.php a ground ball to first that Overbay fielded deep. He was still able to throw home to force Halladay for the first out of the inning. It brought Howard to the plate for a long at-bat, which ended on the 13th pitch when Howard hammered a ball deep to center. McCutchen tracked it down at the wall for the second out, though, and everyone moved up a base with Victorino scoring to tie the game at 2-2. Ruiz was next and was hit on a pitch up and in, loading the bases again. Brown grounded to first to leave them loaded.
Halladay singled with one out in the sixth and moved to second on a ground out by Victorino. Polanco singled into left, scoring Halladay to put the Phils up 4-2. Utley moved Polanco to third with a single and stole second, but lefty Daniel Moskos came in to the game and struck Howard out swinging to leave both runners stranded.
Brown doubled with two outs in the seventh and Valdez walked intentionally behind him. Halladay stayed in the game and struck out looking to leave both men stranded.
I wouldn't walk Valdez intentionally that often. And by that I mean ever.
Polanco and Utley singled back-to-back with one out in the eighth, putting men on first and second for Howard. Howard lined a single into center, scoring Polanco to make it 5-2 and moving Utley to second. Ibanez was next and hit a ball to first that went off the glove of Overbay for an error, loading the bases for Ruiz. Ruiz fouled out to the catcher and Brown struck out swinging to end the frame.
No more runs for the Phils after loading the bases with one out. Ruiz can't bring the runner in from third with one out.
Valdez started the ninth with a single. With righty Daniel McCutchen pitching for the Pirates, Francisco hit for Bastardo and singled to right, moving Valdez to third. Victorino was next and he singled into center, scoring Valdez (6-3) and moving Francisco up to second. Polanco and Utley both went down on fly balls before Howard singled to right, scoring Francisco to put the Phils up 7-3 and moving Victorino to third. Ibanez grounded to first to leave the runners on the corners.
Victorino was 2-for-5 with a walk in the game and 3-for-14 with a walk in the series. He's hitting 278/337/479 on the season.
Polanco 2-for-5 with a walk in the game and 5-for-15 with a walk and two RBI in the series. 320/367/398 on the year. He's 10-for-27 over the last six games.
Utley was 3-for-5 with a walk yesterday in his second multi-hit game of the year. Also 5-for-15 with a walk in the series. He's hitting 239/340/326 with two extra-base hits in 53 plate appearances for the season.
Howard was 2-for-3 with a walk and three RBI yesterday. 2-for-12 with a walk and four RBI in the set. 248/332/482 on the season. 206/308/405 in his last 146 plate appearances.
Top four hitters in the lineup yesterday went 9-for-19 with four walks.
Ibanez was 0-for-4 with a walk and an RBI. 2-for-12 with a double and two walks in the series. 242/294/417 for the season.
Ruiz was 0-for-3 with an RBI. 0-for-7 with two walks in the series. 236/349/341.
Brown was 2-for-5 with a double, which was the only extra-base hit of the game for the Phillies. He also left six men on base. 3-for-12 with a double, walk and an RBI in the series. 304/353/478 in his first 51 plate appearances for the year.
Valdez was 1-for-4 with a walk. 2-for-7 with two walks in the series. 244/288/298 on the season. 275/341/325 over his last 46 plate appearances. Rollins was 3-for-7 with a double in the series and 268/340/364 for the year.
Cliff Lee (4-5, 3.94) faces lefty Ted Lilly (4-4, 4.22) and the Dodgers tonight. After throwing to a 6.00 ERA in his first three starts of the season, Lilly has thrown to a 3.74 ERA and a 1.14 ratio in his last nine starts. The Phils are 3-5 in the last eight games that Lee has started. He's thrown to a 3.95 ERA in those games but a 1.34 ratio, allowing 57 hits and 16 walks in 54 2/3 innings.
This suggests that Rollins thinks he won't need to go to the DL.

Traci's Incredible South Pasadena Craftsman
House Tour
Name: Traci Fleming and her kids Mason and Piper
Location: South Pasadena, CA
Size:2300 square feet
Years lived in: 4 years — own
Traci Fleming, president of Nursery Works, shares an adorable three bedroom craftsman home with her son Mason and daughter Piper. This lovely family home has been refurbished and remodeled to honor the original architectural features. Traci entrusted her vision to the design savvy of Tamara Honey of House of Honey. Together they were able to bring together new modern touches to quite traditional features.
I have to agree with what Traci's friends say about their home — it is warm and inviting. This house has a really great family vibe and speaks to all the advantages of growing into a space. According to Traci, "the laughter of my kids, the bark of our dog June, and the squeak of our guinea pig, Daisy" are the most significant characteristics of their home. When Traci approaches the design of a space or home, she firmly believes in not subscribing to a particular theme or era, "Mix it up — new and old, vintage and modern. The mix is the master of design."
Living in a classic California style craftsman has been a great influence on the decor and characteristics of the space. "Definitely the year-round lifestyle has broadened the interior design of my home — it extends beyond the actual house onto the porches and into the yard. I have strung chandeliers outside, hung oil paintings on the porch, affixed mirrors onto the garage door. It is fun to create additional living spaces outside and use them — for meals, for play, for relaxing and enjoying our beautiful weather with friends and family."
Apartment Therapy Survey:
My Style: Modern with a touch of vintage whimsy.
Inspiration: We wanted something that felt very contemporary, with a whimsical and witty, slightly preppy edge. We mixed custom high-end and unique low-end pieces and lighting, both vintage and new, in an unexpected manner to create a livable yet very dramatic, almost theatrical feel. I think the design of the interior is sophisticated yet does not take itself too seriously. By mixing various styles and eras in a fresh and modern way and not pushing any one design trend, the home evokes a feeling of timelessness. The overall tone of the home reflects a sense of humor and style.
Favorite Element: The white oak floors.
Biggest Challenge: Preserving the heritage of a 100-year old Craftsman, but at the same time making it feel fresh and modern.
What Friends Say: That the home feels warm and vibrant and is a true reflection of our family's personality
Biggest Embarrassment: Painting the exterior the wrong color! And then having to start all over with the right one the next day…
Proudest DIY: there were several DIY touches in the kids' spaces — a corkboard area in the playroom for the children's art, a special reading nook complete with "flying" books, and a garage door made ready for the kids to cover with their own graffiti.
Biggest Indulgence: Vintage lighting throughout the house and a Julie Blackmon photograph in the Dining Room.
Best Advice: Keep a journal of the process — it is a great memory of your choices and inspirations and also a great way to keep a record of all your receipts, paint colors and sources. You never know when you might need to replace that doormat or touch up the paint in the kitchen!

I. Love. This. Home. I love every single bit of it. One of my top 3 on AT for sure. An amazing mix of Craftsman and modern - and I love how you've embraced bold patterns and prints. Adore this house.
love everything about this home, tastefully done.
What an amazing house!
Beautiful! Is the LR/DR trim color China white also? And where did you get those pillows on the couch?
You had me at 'hello'!
Sorry, couldn't resist. Love the use of modern prints on traditional furniture shapes.
Fantastic. Loved the Lawson Fenning pieces, and how you built a whole world around them. Every corner seems very individually thought-out. Perfect!
OMG!!! This house is gorgeous!!! Love the interior fixtures and choice of paint colors!
I love that this home is grown up and beautiful - tastefully done, but still has enough odd, retro, and unexpected moments to keep it fun. Just the right amount of "quirk". (And I mean that in the best possible way!)
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this home!
really like a lot of the artwork...especially like the kids' rooms! a little too much white for me but otherwise very fun
I was expecting something wonderful from the first photo of the front of the house (love that color combo, although the landscaping killed it a bit for me), and while there are a few nice things going on, photo after photo was just a disappointment. This once beautiful house has had nearly all the character scrubbed from it.
I love what's been done with the bungalow. I'm a Pasadenean of nearly fifty years and lived in a craftsman bungalow for twenty of them. Although I left the wooden floors in a dark brown color, I also painted the walls white (off white). Light is important here.
Most of my neighbors were living in craftsman bungalows or craftsman houses as my entire neighborhood, walking distance from the Gamble House, is on the national, historic registry. Some neighbors left their craftsman houses/bungalows in the original dark colors and others lightened them up and gave them a more contemporary look. It's about what suits one best as it's the resident that has to live in it from day to day.
My current residence is early 1950s, but I don't have the interior looking like the early 1950s. Some original features have been left in, but I have moved on and have blended in a Southeast Asian look into the design and it works very well.
Traci, you have an absolutely gorgeous home. Regarding the exterior, are those cedar shakes? Also, may I ask what brand of paint the lead gray is? It's so striking!
INCREDIBLE is right!!!!!!!!! amazing!
Absolutely perfect. Love everything.
I love the yellow front door with the word Hello. written on it. Very cute!
I like much about this house. I am crazy in love with the outside color and cool porch chairs etc. I do have a question, have we seen this before. The boy's room I know I have seen. Here? maybe Cookie? Not sure just really feel like I know this space.
Everything is gorgeous. I especially love the outside of the house. The grey and yellow color combination is especially appealing. At first I didn't really realize you have Hello written on your door. I just thought AT wrote that on the picture.
I really like the original parts such as a marlin in the shower. What's the story on the white tree thing outside. It is cool but just wondering if you bought that or made it.
It does look like a designer decorating the place. I guess that's good as you are a designer.
What a funky house! Love the front door...Nice place to wander about and comment on...
This is an awesome house! I enjoyed every bit of it. Thanks for being brave enough to share with AT's commentors. The colors are a wonderful combination.
Master bedroom is my favorite. That overstuffed bench at the food of the bed looks so good in there.
This house is amazing, beautiful.
The elegant arts and crafts exterior is quite a contrast with the stunning Hollywood Regency inspired interior.
I adore craftsman architecture and have always wondered what it would look like to paint the woodwork all white, as it can be a bit overwhelmingly dark inside - like the Green & Green house. Should I ever have the good fortune to own such a beauty, I now know not to do it.
There are some absolutely lovely elements in this home especially the yellow wallpaper and the kitchen banquet. However it does seem a tad over designed and a bit "look at me, aren't I eclectic and hip". I do love all of the art work and wish I had their budget. Ironically the home owner's favorite element, the bleached wood floors, is actually my least. I don't think it goes well with the white walls. I know they wanted to keep some of the warmth of the wood grain as opposed to painting the floors white but it just seems a bit off to me. Maybe it looks better in person. I would probably stain the floors a medium or dark brown then the furniture wouldn't look like it was floating in space, the white woodwork would look more classic and elegant, and it would bring a much needed coziness to the space. But overall I enjoyed the tour.
It's perfect in a very "I hired an expensive decorator" way...but not at all true to its Craftsman roots. The pale floors throw me off even more than the painted woodwork.
I also would have liked to see some more shots of the outdoor living spaces.
What a stunning home this is. Living in this area, I expected yet another craftsman done in the usual craftsman style, ho hum. This is a beautifully creative alternative to "the usual" method of furnishing this style of house. Love everything, in and out!
What is the point of living in a historic craftsman house if NOTHING in it embraces the actual character of the home? Painting everything white just seems like a way to camouflage all the details of what should be an absolutely stunning home. There are some nice pieces of furniture here and there, but overall, the decor and design choices inside just don't work for me. It does have lovely curb appeal though.
I love this beautiful interesting fun lively home! at the end of the tour I realized I kept hitting the next arrow only to realize... there were no more pictures. :(
we live in a dark Craftsman bungalow and my California aunt always wants to paint the woodwork, which I could NEVER bear to do. on the other hand, I find Craftsman houses that are purely populated with Stickley furniture and Tiffany stained glass table lamps to be so unimaginative. the point is to make it your own and I love love love how this homeowner has done that here.
Disclaimer: I am a friend of Traci's. I have visited her house countless times in all kinds of circumstances: children's playdates, grown-up parties, intimate soirees. And I have to say, I think she has found a creative balance of form and function.
There are so many dark, dank, oppressive craftswanabees in Pasadena, but this is refreshing. It has a certain exuberance (granted, not for everyone), but a joie de vivre and clarity that is absolutely refreshing. My kids love visiting here. I applaud her for reinventing a venerated aesthetic. She does not portray herself as a preservationist. She is an adapter. And if we ever learn one important lesson in life and creativity, surely it is that!
This home is just lovely. So many original, fun details.
I personally think being "influenced" by a certain period rather than dictated by that period is much more inspiring and freeing. It is evident that Traci has been influenced by many eras of the 20th century. I think it all works beautifully in her vibrant, fun eclectic home. I adore her use of color and find it so inviting! I love every inch of this home!
I think this is lovely and, quite frankly, I am tired of this "painting wood is heresy!" thing. If you prefer unpainted wood, fine--but you need to realize not everyone else agrees. It's also fine to express your opinion, but it should be polite. Yeah, not everything is everyone's taste, and that's fine. (I knew the cowhide rug would get people up in arms, too!) I feel like every house tour has somehow become a big controversy, because people can't accept that their opinion is not the only right one.
I live in a 1934 apartment, but I'm not going to keep everything historically accurate. Time moves on. If you want to keep something historically accurate, more power to you. Buy your own place to restore.
I think this is really charming and fresh. Thanks for featuring it.
By the way, what is the front door paint color? Is that the custom color that isn't attributed to anything in the paint color section? (I love that the splashes of yellow are carried throughout.)
Beautiful - and with enough funkiness to not seem calculated. Great job!
So... where are those couch pillows from?
Love this house! That has to be one of the cutest little girl's rooms I have ever seen.
This house is gorgeous and really tastefully done. And no clutter! Top marks from me.
Beautiful. loved the elegant, incredibly neat splashes of color, such restraint amongst all the grays and white.
I was hoping this would be a fantastic adaptation and modernization of a craftsman home, expecting an ecclectic mix of craftsman and more modern elements and lighter colors.
Although I agree the interiors are beautiful, they rarely give even a nod to the craftsman architecture of the home - and where elements still exist - like the woodwork, it's painted. I would love the interiors if the house were a more neutral architectural style, like a 50's or 60's rambler - and then the retro pieces would be a reference to that era with the added classical elements and modern colors it would be fab.
This is one of my favorite house tours ever! Love, love, love the door
I understand the wood purists point of view here, but honestly this is a really well done remodel and ultimately what makes AT so interesting is seeing different takes on traditional design.
I love the house and the use of color and prints. The decorator did a wonderful job making it not look over-decorated and over-accessorized, which is what I usually find in pro-decorated spaces.
Love every sq ft. of it! Esp the kid's rooms. Awesome!!!
Just lovely! Adore the kids rooms! Could you share where the bunk bed is from? I love the wood and the shelving on it.
whereas it isn't my style, the house is done well. That being said, it doesn't seem like much of the craftsman heritage was embraced, everything has been whitewashed and painted.
I love the color mix throughout the house. Well done!
Can someone please tell me what kind of bed/who makes/sells the bed in the master bedroom? I'm obsessed with the feet, but can't seem to find that model anywhere...any ideas?
An interesting and different take on a South Pas Craftsman, and I love the marlin.
My one problem with it, though, is the mirror over the bed in the master bedroom. That's a big no-no in any earthquake-prone area.
What a work of art! I love it! Whimsical and bright, yet formal with a touch of kitsch (the white owls)! I do love the porch and exterior, the grey with the yellow; I've never seen the "Hello." before. Donuts to dollars I start to, because this place has definite influence potential! Excellent job!~
This home is gorgeous! The white is bright, clean, and refreshing. The splashes of color on the accessories and in the bedrooms prevent the space from looking stark and overly harsh. I LOVE the flooring.
Thanks so much for sharing!
I went to college near there and fell in love with Craftsman style. However, later I came to feel that all the dark woods inside were oppressive. This is nothing short of amazing! I think your choices fit in very well with the architecture. Great taste! Especially am loving the drawer pulls in the master (?) bath. And the swordfish bath looks wonderful too, whimsical without being the slightest bit overdone.
Wow what great photography and a beautiful Craftsman House. Fabulous decorating! Well done! Cool Paul
I'm not feeling it. The exterior (from the street) looks a bit like a 'before' pic. The interior feels sparse, despite being filled with furnishings. Maybe it's that the furnishings are disjointed? There are nice elements here and there, but overall it seems like the kind of restraint you have to exercise when renting and hoping to recover a security deposit. I was surprised to read that a designer was hired.
On the subject of the white painted trim -- it's possible that she was in the same position I'm in. I have a turn-of-the-century craftsman with decades of paint on the trim. While I would prefer to uncover it and re-stain, it's a huge undertaking. Definitely low priority behind kitchen, baths, and some serious safety issues. I'm hoping to post some pics to AT once things are presentable (whenever that happens.)
Total Jonathan Adler pottery avalanche!
Every renovation should be considered from a real estate resale perspective. One person's fabulous idea of what a craftsman interior should be like should be tested by how it might affect resale. My guess is that the design direction (especially the blonde floors which will likely be out of style quickly) will sadly limit the number of potential buyers. Novices get so wrapped up in design that they often forget the big picture....
Buster1, personally I don't care about resale but I do care about a certain regard for fantastic historic design. I just am very very curious why she would replace so much of what is considered craftsman. Wasn't that the impetus for the purchase of this kind of architecture? I can only guess that there were some real issues like rot or a fire that destroyed it in the first place. I wish I could find this out. It is seriously bugging me.
Buster 1's idea had crossed my mind as well. When the time comes for resale this treatment might work against that.
I do agree Buster 1, I just am not bothered by it. Your thoughts and the decoration remind me of John Chase's book Exterior Decoration, Hollywood's Inside Out Houses. It's a very interesting take on similiar design undertakings.
Pretty sure that's a John Brosio painting in your living room, no? Love his work!
I had to take it easy during this tour so every picture would be digested. Really lovely stuff. Yellow and charcol -- yum! Love it. And that cook subway tile-like fabric on your antique sofa, that's genious. Great job!
This house is like what I found in residential painting Denver. The decorations and art crafts are also incredible and great! Aside from the paint colors, the combinations also complement well the house.
Could you tell me more about the banquette? Im also in socal and was wondering who fabricated the banquette and do you know what foam thickness and dimensions were used? Thanks!

World Wetlands Day 2003:
Reported by Jolanta Gaczynska (email@example.com), Warta Mouth NP, Poland
The celebration of World Wetland Day lasted eight days in Warta Mouth National Park this year!
02.02.2003 - Slides shows and lectures: "Warta Mouth National Park - a Ramsar Site" have taken place in Park's head office in Chyrzyno at 11:00, 13:00 and 15:00.
03-11.02.2003 - Ecological workshops for schoolchildren "Why do we need wetlands?" have been organized. As many as twelve schools from local communes have participated.
We have also asked schoolchildren to help us to propagate the idea of World Wetland Day in their schools by making posters, newspapers etc. The prize was a spring bike trip through new Park teaching trail. Ten elementary schools from Kostrzyn, Dabroszyn, Kamien Wielki, Stare Dzieduszyce, Gorzyca, Czarnow and Zabice have taken a part in this venture. A Park committee has visited these schools to judged kids' work. If many children were involved and the news about WWD were really spread, the better note school obtained. The winner is the school from Dabroszyn! Congratulations!
The poster made by schoolchildren from Dabroszyn.
A few examples of posters made in local primary schools.

|Cloud Computing Explained: Implementation Handbook for Enterprises
|John Rhoton
|Second Edition: Updated and Expanded in 2011 Cloud Computing Explained provides an overview of Cloud Computing in an enterprise environment. There is a tremendous amount of enthusiasm around cloud-based solutions and services as well as the cost-savings and flexibility that they can provide. It is imperative that all senior technologists have a solid understanding of the ramifications of cloud computing since its impact is likely to permeate the entire IT landscape. However, it is not trivial to introduce a fundamentally different service-delivery paradigm into an existing enterprise architecture. This book describes the benefits and challenges of Cloud Computing and then leads the reader through the process of assessing the suitability of a cloud-based approach for a given situation, calculating and justifying the investment that is required to transform the process or application, and then developing a solid design that considers the implementation as well as the ongoing operations and governance required to maintain the solution in a partially outsourced delivery model.

Here's a wonderful side dish from Chef Brandon Miller that showcases baby leeks to their best advantage.
If baby leeks aren't available, choose the smallest leeks you can find. Homemade basil oil is easy to make, especially if you have abundance of fresh basil leaves - but if time is short, you can use a commercial brand, or substitute walnut or hazelnut oil instead.
|baby leeks
|3 tablespoons
|2 cups
|hot vegetable stock
|Salt and freshly ground pepper (to taste)
|3 tablespoons
|champagne vinegar
|3/4 cup
|Basil Oil (below) or walnut of hazelnut oil
|2 tablespoons
|heavy cream
|1 tablespoon
|Snipped fresh chives
|1/3 cup
|Kosher salt
|6 cups
|fresh basil leaves (packed)
|2 cups
|extra-virgin olive oil
Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 325 degrees F. Butter an 8-inch square baking dish and a piece of parchment paper cut to size (for the top); set aside.
Cut off the stem ends (roots) and green tops of the leeks. Slice the leeks lengthwise, leaving one inch near the root end intact to keep the leeks from falling apart. Wash thoroughly under cold water to remove all sand.
Place the leeks in the prepared baking dish and cover with the stock. Salt and pepper lightly, then cover with the parchment paper, buttered side down. Cook until leeks are tender and the stock is reduced to a glaze. Turn the leeks 2 or 3 times while baking. Cool to lukewarm.
While the leeks are cooling, mix the vinegar with a pinch of salt and pepper. Whisk in the oil and cream. Correct the seasoning and add the chives. Pour the vinaigrette mixture over the leeks and serve lukewarm.
Basil Oil: If you're making your own, be sure to plan in advance so the oil is ready in time for you to assemble the leek dish.
In a large saucepan, bring 4 quarts of water to a boil with the salt. Add the basil and cook for 15 seconds. Drain through a sieve and immediately plunge the basil into an ice water bath to stop the cooking process. When cool, drain again and squeeze all the water from the basil with your hands.
Place the basil and the oil in a blender and pulse a few times to break up the herbs. Then blend for 2 minutes to purée.
Strain the infused oil through cheesecloth or paper coffee filters. Transfer to a sterilized glass bottle or jar and cover. Refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.

With the recent Admin changes at RJF, we are working diligently in fulfilling all obligations to our clients. The ZK-22 has been a huge hit but we have discontinued sales until all backorders are fulfilled.
Our customers are very important to us and we will reward those who have been so patient!
Thank you for your continued support during this company transition period, as we can finally try to operate and fix this problem without overt control in different directions.
Ya'll are the best customers on the planet and we are grateful for your continued support.
For those who have your ZK-22:
Check out the ZK-22 installation Video below
ZK-22 Information
Check out the ZK-22 Installation Video here
Please See the New Installation Manual Here
We are very sorry on any delays but we finally have the improved trigger bar manufacturing process in place and has ramped up our production substantially. We now are having these extruded , so we have a smoother and higher tolerance bar that requires substantially less hand work on our part and no warppage or risk of binding.
When you receive your stock make sure you watch the video, the number one installation error people are making is rotating the cam to tight into the trigger and this is not allowing the factory trigger to reset. You must have some visible air gap between the cam and the Ruger trigger.
Thanks for y'alls continued patience.
The NEW Red Jacket Team!
Tips and tricks
1. Check to make sure the gun is unloaded, magazine out and check the chamber twice from underneath and through the ejection port. Place any ammunition in a totally separate area to avoid confusion.
2. When you are installing the first side of the trigger plate the trigger bar could hang free. You can use a piece of masking tape or a rubber band to lightly hold the trigger bar to the barrel. The bar can be bent if allowed to hang free and excess pressure is applied while threading or manipulating it while threading screws. Remove tape or rubber band before attempting the first fitment into the stock.
3. The splined trigger cam is very snug to retain the assembly and ensure there is no slop. Always rotate the cam to the bottom most position possible, this gives you the optimum leverage on the trigger. Make sure the action is cycled and the trigger bar is fully forward, place the cam on the shaft but don't engage the splines. Rotate the Cam downwards (think the heavy side down) till it just touches the Ruger trigger and back off one spline and seat it. This will get you close. If you need to re adjust or remove the cam, a butter knife or thin flat blade screw driver will allow you to start the removal and get it to the point you can take it off. If it becomes troublesome to remove, TAKE THE SIDE PLATE OFF to remove the cam!
4. The Hex pockets for the body nuts are a very close fit, if you drop the nut in it will tip and you won't be able to thread it. With the Nut side of the stock up, take each nut and thread it onto a long screw about 1/2 turn. Place in socket and then un-thread the screw leaving the nut flat and at the bottom of the socket. Place the screw onto the provided Allen key and thread in from underneath holding the stock through a center hole! work from a center hole and work out in a criss-cross pattern and just bottom each screw don't snug until all screws are in. After all screws are in place, flip stock Snug the screws in the criss-cross pattern and then go back and add 1/4 turn to fully tighten the screws.
5. Use Graphite dry lube only on polymer parts, oil will make slurry and impede free movement.
6. If you like a bit loser charging handle you can gently flex the detent down to lessen the pressure and ease the fly forward charging, do not press further than 1/8 " as this will deform or possibly break the detent off .

4 Stocks NOT Correlated to Apple
Chris is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Michael Jordan was the heart of the Chicago Bulls offense. He led the Bulls to six National Championships.
Yet even Michael Jordan needed to take a breather during most games.
That's why I'm not overly concerned with Apple's (NASDAQ: AAPL) major sell off. For many investors, Apple's torrid growth has left their once-balanced portfolios brimming with gains – and also a large weight towards Apple stock.
The problem with unbalanced portfolios tilted towards Apple is that when Apple tanks, the portfolio follows. In the long-run, I have no doubt that Apple will make a move upwards. Perhaps it will even surpass its high of $705.07.
But for now, Apple sits at $514, 27.1% below its high. Likely, most of the damage is done. However, you may not think that most of the damage is done. If so, what's next is for you.
Correlation Analysis
Correlation tracks how two securities move in tandem. A perfect "1" means that both move in lockstep, while "-1" means they move inversely. I ran a correlation analysis and found four tech stocks that are were negatively correlated to Apple during the last 50 trading days.
If you are long Apple and want a reprieve through hedging or diversifying (but don't want to sell all of your shares), consider one of these tech alternatives.
Research in Motion (NASDAQ: BBRY) – Correlation: -.67
Observe a word of caution with RIM. RIM had a great run during the past few months, popping 128.5% to $14.21 from its September 24 low of $6.22. However, on December 21 the stock gapped down to $11.84 on the open and currently trades between $11 and $12. The run may be over.
In addition, RIM fell from prominence. The company was the first to make accessing e-mail via phone an easy feat. And its keyboard is still simple to use. However, its clunky browser and outdated platform have made Blackberry's severely "uncool."
The data backs this up. In my article "Blackberry's New Design Will Save the Stock" I wrote about Nokia's miserly 2.1% worldwide market share last quarter.
On the bright side, BlackBerry is launching new designs. No doubt the anticipation "saved" the stock price. Just look at the past three months. However, be wary that the long-term may not be as rosy as the immediate past.
Nokia (NYSE: NOK) – Correlation: -.61
Nokia has been on a tear. The stock was recently up above $4 after trading as low as $1.63 in July. Nokia's rich patent portfolio and strong market share have enabled the company to weather the storm.
Last quarter Nokia had 19.2% worldwide market share, behind Samsung's 22.9% market share. One year prior, Nokia had 23.9% share in the quarter, meaning that users jumped ship to Apple or Android.
The future looks much better. Nokia's new Lumia phones are carried by the major U.S. carriers, and they run users just $99 – a great price for Microsoft's new Windows 8 operating system.
Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX) – Correlation: -.85
Thank you, Carl Icahn. I wrote about Carl Icahn's investment in my article "Icahn Has Special Plans for Netflix." In the post I explained that Icahn owns shares at an average price of $58, and that he believes the company is severely undervalued.
Investors should have the same mindset. While Netflix would have a hard time raising prices because of its price fiasco last year, Netflix can certainly grow by adding users. Whether the shares increase because of growth or via acquisition, Netflix is a valuable media property with upside.
Facebook (NASDAQ: FB) – Correlation: -.59
After bouncing around the $19 area for some time, Facebook ran up above $28. Currently the stock price is settling in the $26 area.
Facebook's Instagram is making headlines now because it tweaked its Terms of Service. Instagram is making changes that Facebook hopes will lead towards profitability. Recently Instagram "disabled a feature that allowed its users to post their photos directly into Twitter," said The Wall Street Journal. This means more market share for Instagram (Facebook) and less for Twitter.
Instagram reached 7.3 million active daily users this past August, beating Twitter's 6.87 million for the first time. If Instagram is able to profitably monetize through ads, the company's huge market share then becomes a significant boost to Facebook.
Yes, Apple is falling further each day. If you think that Apple is poised for a rebound right now, then hold on and wait it out. Now is not the time to make major changes.
But if you think that Apple has more downside, then it could make sense to hedge or diversify with other tech stocks. And the ones above are negatively correlated to Apple. When Apple zigs downward, they zag upward.

On April 6, 1890 the Fort Worth Gazette said that with the recent election of progressive candidate William S. Pendleton as mayor, Fort Worth should build a fine new city hall:
Fort Worth would get its fine new city hall in 1893.
But Mayor William S. Pendleton would not be around to occupy it. Hizzoner was a little too progressive. On October 5, 1890, just six months after his election, the Gazette would report that Mrs. Mayor had been granted a divorce:
Turns out that while Pendleton was still married to the mother of his children, he had been having an affair with Addie Cullen, a telephone operator who was described by one newspaper as "a second Venus."
In the 1888 city directory Addie was one of three Cullen women (sisters?) who were operators at the Fort Worth phone company and who lived at the same address.
The scandal broke after newspapers learned that Mayor Pendleton had married Addie Cullen on July 5 in New Orleans. But . . . but . . . but wasn't Hizzoner already married? With children? Pendleton answered that charge by claiming that he had obtained a secret divorce in Illinois the previous year. But newspaper reporters soon discovered that the state of Illinois had no record of Pendleton's divorce. Pendleton resigned from the office of mayor after serving less than four months. City Councilman J. P. Nicks, mayor pro tem, served as acting mayor until a special election was held on August 4.
On August 5 the Fort Worth Gazette reported that John Peter Smith had been elected to the third of three terms he would serve as mayor.
In that same August 5 edition the Gazette reported in a brief that Hizz(dis)oner had been heard from and was living in Chicago.
The Gazette printed reactions of other Texas newspapers to the election of Smith. Note that a Houston paper could not resist a dig at Pendleton.
Indeed, the Pendleton-Cullen affair caused a sensation beyond Fort Worth. These clips are from, top to bottom, the New York Times (July 12), Brenham Banner (July 24), and Austin Statesman (September 18).
Crave more? Here are articles from, top to bottom, the Austin Statesman (July 17), San Saba News (July 18), and San Marcos Free Press (July 24). The Free Press article is the earliest I have found that indicates that Pendleton was no longer mayor nineteen days after his marriage to Addie Cullen.
In fact, coverage of the scandal in the Fort Worth Gazette is hard to find. Maybe some issues are missing from the archives. Or maybe, because the Spring Palace had burned May 30, just five weeks before the scandal broke, the newspaper, as the voice of the town, was too stunned by the double blow to speak. This brief appeared in the Brenham Banner on July 24.
Fast forward to December 1890. Five months had passed. Pendleton told his side of the scandal to the New York Sun, and on December 5 the Gazette reprinted the story. Pendleton claimed he had been the victim of a "divorce mill": In August 1889 Pendleton, himself a lawyer, had paid $265 to a law firm in New York City to file for him in the state of Illinois a divorce suit on the grounds of "incompatibility of temper."
But a child of the Pendletons had been ill at the time, and Pendleton, his friends said, had chosen not to tell his wife that she was now an ex-wife. The child died, and afterward Pendleton had told his wife about the divorce. In April 1890 Pendleton was elected mayor.
Pendleton later claimed he had assumed his divorce was valid until he read otherwise in the newspapers after his marriage to Addie Cullen on July 5. But the divorce decree turned out to be worthless. The seal of the Cook County, Illinois, court was bogus, the signature of the court clerk a forgery.
Long story made short: In October 1890 Mrs. Pendleton got a valid divorce from Mr. Pendleton; Mr. Pendleton got a valid marriage to Addie Cullen. (Clips from the October 5, 1890 Gazette and October 23, 1890 Brenham Banner.)
Perhaps Fort Worth voters should have expected no good to come out of that mayoral election of 1890. On election day the Gazette published the following brief editorial urging voters to go to the polls. Election day that year fell on April 1, April Fools' Day:

You'll have the opportunity to join him as he journeys through the diversity of Africa, capturing the essence of its colours and cultures in his exciting live theatre presentation. He shares with the audience this extraordinary continent; through landscapes from desert to jungle, dynamic wildlife, and human life from remote villages to teeming metropolis.
You'll have the chance to hear about his experiences first hand. See silverback mountain gorillas deep in the Congolese rainforest; the tallest sand dunes in the world; the remote tribes of Ethiopia's Omo Valley; endangered black rhino drinking at a moonlit waterhole; Mozambican migrant workers toiling in a gold mine three kilometres below ground; a wildebeest calf in the moments after its birth; pilgrims in the ancient rock-hewn churches of northern Ethiopia; an impala in the dramatic instant of its death, and fishermen on the Niger River at dawn. In this event, Steve captures the diversity of the continent where he grew up, and where he has felt compelled to return throughout his life.
Each event will be followed by a book signing session and there's also the opportunity to join Steve for a tour of Tanzania from 19-24 October 2013, with Better Moments Photo Tours.

Investigators say a man shot and killed his wife Sunday at their home in an exclusive Brentwood neighborhood before leading authorities on an overnight manhunt, but they are still working to determine why.
Randy Maidens, 42, is charged in the death of his wife, Dr. Rachael Maidens, and officials have now released more information into the subsequent search that stretched well into Monday morning.
Randy Maidens was arrested when he returned home to the crime scene at The Governor's Club, but police knew he hadn't gone far, as he apparently did not turn off his cell phone right away after leaving home on foot the night before.
Police said they do not have any knowledge of previous domestic violence between the couple, but they received a welfare check call at the couple's home just before 6 p.m. Sunday, where Dr. Rachael Maidens was found shot to death.
The couple's 2-year-old child was found unhurt inside the home.
Many neighbors at The Governor's Club have expressed praise and support for the job police did in keeping everyone safe during the overnight manhunt.
Now, a private candlelight vigil is being organized for neighbors Thursday at 7 p.m. in the Maidens' driveway. Speakers will include friends, law enforcement officials and perhaps a local minister.
Randy Maidens remains jailed on $2.5 million bond.
