The beloved Pirate Captain Uthanka returns as a ghost. The ghost appears to those who cannot mourn him and miss him. Uthanka is weak as a ghost, but he still loves a good laugh and fun brawl. If he's in a good mood he rewards the mourner with a small replica of himself.
To mourn Pirate Captain Uthanka, visit his tombstone just outside of Talking Island Village. If you can feel his presence near the tombstone it is a good time to mourn him. He visits the world in spirit for two hours, at eight hour intervals each day.
Use the Sorrow emote (or /socialsad) from the Action window on the tombstone. The Sorrow emote can be used on the tombstone once per minute only.
Upon mourning the tombstone, Uthanka may or may not appear to the mourner. If he doesn't appear, try mourning him again after a minute. If he does appear he will want to have a tussle. Depending on the result of the fight, Uthanka will leave the mourner a different item or gift.
Uthanka Reward Items:
|Performing the Sorrow emote at the Pirate Captain Uthanka's Tombstone outside of Talking Island Village.
|Pirate Captain Uthanka's Ghost spawned and ready to fight you.
|Pirate Captain Uthanka transformation (from ring).
|Pirate Captain Uthanka agathion.

Adjuvant Therapy for Patients with Colon Cancer
Name of the Trial
Principal Investigator
Why Is This Trial Important?
Recent studies have shown that the effectiveness of chemotherapy for colon cancer that has metastasized can be improved with the addition of a monoclonal antibody called bevacizumab (Avastin). Bevacizumab blocks the action of a protein called vascular endothelial growth factor, which can help tumors establish a blood supply, so they can get oxygen and nutrients needed for growth.
With this study, researchers hope that patients undergoing adjuvant treatment for colon cancer that has not metastasized will also benefit from the addition of bevacizumab to chemotherapy.
"Bevacizumab inhibits the formation of blood vessels to tumors, thereby depriving the tumor of nutrients, and may increase the effectiveness of chemotherapy," said Dr. Allegra. "We hope that by adding bevacizumab to adjuvant chemotherapy, we will be able to prolong disease-free survival of people with colon cancer that can be surgically removed."

Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
Ron Paul (via libertyidaho)
[Click here for a PDF version of this report for printing.]
The American taxpayer has the largest stake in the International Monetary Fund. With the highest voting share in the Fund, the U.S. is the only nation with the power to veto all major IMF decisions. We must put pressure on Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner to veto these IMF bailouts for the first time in history. Listed below are the top 10 reasons to stop the IMF bailouts:
1. The IMF is a prime example of our bailout culture. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has regularly put American taxpayers on the hook to bail out powerful banks and profligate foreign nations with poor economic policies. According to the Hoover Institution, "it would be difficult to devise a more regressive wealth transfer scheme than IMF financing programs. IMF loans are used to rescue wealthy, politically connected bankers, investors, and financiers at the expense of domestic taxpayers." Most recently, the IMF spent $145 billion to bailout Greece. The nation had long been living way beyond its means. Greece's failure to cut their bloated public sector and lavish welfare programs left them bankrupt. The IMF recently announced plans to send $130 billion to spendthrift Ireland. It is reported that Portugal and Spain may be next in line to seek funding followed by Italy and Belgium.
2. Cost to U.S. Taxpayers. For years, government officials have been touting the fallacy that IMF payments are costless to American taxpayers. Former U.S. treasury secretary Robert Rubin claimed that "the IMF has not cost the taxpayer a dime." However, American taxpayers subsidize the IMF to the tune of billions of dollars annually. U.S. taxpayers contribute an estimated $55 billion or 17.09 percent of the IMF's total funding. These hidden subsidies are not subjected to annual appropriations and they arenowhere to be found in the federal budget.
3. The IMF has made global financial crises much worse. Nearly all of the IMF's efforts have been counterproductive. Take Argentina for example. For many years, the IMF poured taxpayer-subsidized loans with an exceptionally low interest rate of 2.6 percent into the country. After receiving IMF bailout packages of more than $40 billion, Argentina's economy collapsed in 2002. The Joint Economic Committee found that the IMF "led to moral hazard problems" and "sustained and subsidized a bankrupt Argentine economic policy." It is believed that the IMF played a major role in creating the Asian financial crisis. Even former Russian Deputy Prime Minister Boris Federov has stated, "I strongly believe that IMF money injections in 1994-1998 were detrimental to the Russian economy and interests of the Russian people. Instead of speeding up reforms, they slowed them."
4. The IMF encourages reckless behavior. The IMF has encouraged reckless behavior by holding out the prospect of a bailout to any country and big politically connected bank that fails. In order to survive, the IMF must provide credit. This has inflamed what economists call moral hazard. Governments and banks are more likely to take greater risks when they believe that they will not be exposed to the full costs of their mistakes. The IMF rewards countries with poor macroeconomic policies and banks that make risky loans with taxpayer-subsidized bailouts.
5. The IMF threatens our sovereignty. The international bureaucracy of the IMF threatens America's sovereignty. While America has the largest voting share, it is clearly unconstitutional for an intergovernmental organization to grant American taxpayer-funded bailouts to foreign nations without congressional approval. Moreover, the head of the IMF Dominique Strauss-Kahn is a member of France's socialist party. Self-described socialist Dominique Strauss-Kahn has proposed a global currency that would serve as an alternative to the U.S. dollar. An April IMF report reads, "A more ambitious reform option would be to build on the previous ideas and develop, over time, a global currency. Called, for example, bancor in honor of Keynes, such a currency could be used as a medium of exchange—an 'outside money' in contrast to the SDR which remains an 'inside money'." Dominique Stratuss-Kahn has already called on European countries to cede sovereignty to the European Union. He declared that "the centre must seize the initiative in all areas key to reaching the common destiny of the union, especially in financial, economic and social policy. Countries must be willing to cede more authority to the centre."
6. The IMF does not create wealth. It is impossible to create wealth through government to government transfers. The IMF merely diverts money away from taxpayers in the productive private sector and into the hands of international bureaucrats. These IMF officials redistribute wealth to benefit multinational corporations and banks. It's a form of corporate welfare. The IMF hands out lucrative contracts to politically connected corporations for construction projects funded by taxpayers. Just as we've seen in America, these tax-funded "stimulus" programs have failed to produce economic growth.
7. IMF's policies have hurt poor countries. IMF loans have distorted incentives in poor countries. Governments that receive generous taxpayer-subsidized loans have little incentive to advance policies that spur economic growth. Their main objective is to cater to their foreign contributors to stay in power for as long as possible. As Zambian economist Dambisa Moyo states, "foreign aid has been the biggest single inhibitor of Africa's growth." So far, there has been no correlation between IMF loans and growth. Most of the countries that receive IMF loans are left worse off with massive debts that they cannot afford to pay which only escalates poverty and instability.
8. The IMF still lacks transparency. Even though the IMF is funded with taxpayer dollars, it has always operated under a veil of secrecy. To design their loan packages, the IMF works exclusively with central bankers and finance ministers. Taxpayers are usually not informed on how or why the IMF puts together their "rescue" packages. Using extensive jargon in their reports, it is hard to tell how the IMF evaluates the success of their bailouts and loans. Russia's former tax chief Boris Fyodorov says that "the IMF should learn a lesson from the past five years. The IMF was pretending that it was seeing a lot of reforms in Russia. Russia was pretending to conduct reforms. The Western taxpayer was paying for it."
9. The IMF fosters a cycle of dependency. Rather than encouraging pro-growth policies, IMF loans foster a culture of dependency among developing nations. It's created a horde of loan addicts. More than 70 countries have relied on IMF loans for more than 20 years. The Fund has failed to help countries become self-sufficient. In virtually every case, these IMF loans become permanent. University of Virginia economics Professor Leland Yeager observes that "self-important international bureaucracies have institutional incentives to invent new functions for themselves, to expand, and to keep client countries dependent on their aid."
10. The IMF props up authoritarian regimes.The IMF has spent decades propping up some of the most repressive regimes in the world. Little evidence has shown that IMF loans have helped average citizens in authoritarian nations. IMF loans are a government to government transfer. Zambian economist Dr. Moyo says "a constant stream of 'free' money is a perfect way to keep an inefficient or simply bad government in power." Even worse, these taxpayer-subsidized loans end up in the hands of corrupt dictators. These rulers have an incentive to reward their supporters and special interests constituents. According to a Joint Economic Committee study, "evidence suggests that the IMF knowingly makes loans to corrupt governments while recognizing that some of its loan conditions and procedures can create circumstances promoting additional corruption…thus, IMF lending operations may be consistent with subsidizing corruption." Why should American taxpayers surrender their money to fuel cruel Sudanese rulers who have engaged in genocide against civilians?
Ludwig von Mises, in Human Action
(via a-petro-manifesto)
Rule of law is FUCKING NECESSARY to have a successful free market. You need a goddamn fair playing field. Yes, it is hard to draw the line at government intervention. BUT RUNNING A GODDAMN COUNTRY IS HARD.
Rule of law is necessary? Do you have proof for that or just assertion? Yes, "rule of law"-based intervention did prove successful for the markets that lead to, say, the great depression. Or our most recent recession how 'bout?
Ah, wait, no.
Where government and capitalism exist together, corporatism is inevitable. What the left constantly projects as being "capitalism" is, as most will agree, actually corporatism. (The contrasting definitions were only recently clarified for myself.) The money-grubbing dudes getting protested on Wall Street are not capitalists, they are corporatists. They have used government mingling and Keynesian economics to gain unfair advantages within the market.
So wouldn't it stand to reason that if we were to remove the government, instead of turning politics into corporatist monarchy, the capitalists would just revert back to the days of lords and serfs? Not quite. You see, society is, and always has been, organized from the bottom up. This is what makes ideas such as Marxism seem appealing. To the authoritarian/statist mind, however, this seems chaotic and wholly incorrect. Our world's religions have told us constantly that it was organized from the top down, that a creator planned and designed our world first. And during the days of crown rule, it was in the king and queen's best interests to make the peasants think that they were the subjects to the crown.
Now, while there are schools of capitalism (ex. Keynesian) that believe in top-down control (which gives rise to exploitation, to the concept of the government needing to intervene, of a country being ran by an authority), from what I've seen of anarcho-capitalism, there is absolutely no room for it. Because when control is coming from the top of the social pyramid, it must be delivered through coercion.
You say we need a fair playing field? That's exactly what anarcho-capitalism would achieve that is non-existent in our mixed, corporatist economy. Inextricably intertwined with the anarcho-capitalist philosophy are the ideas of agorism and voluntaryism. Complete non-aggression. This doesn't imply some sort of pacifist, egalitarian, communist ecotopia, but rather a society where if you don't want to do something you don't have to. You don't want to work on a farm? That's alright, we'll find someone else, and you can crash with whatever family and friends will have you. You don't have to worry about becoming a wage slave, coerced into working for some predatory monopoly. In a free market, monopolies cannot emerge. For one corporation to buy out another requires financial set backs which would only increase the competition in the business' field. Monopolies of the private property variety can only emerge when the state intervenes on the behalf of Corporation A, or Corporation B or C or whatever.
In top-down social structure, i.e. the state, the playing field can only become imbalanced if the top of the social pyramid makes it tip - in our current structure this means the predatory corporations and the governments they own (although, with the increase of socialization, more and more the government is turning into the predatory monopoly).
The anarcho-capitalist instead believes in bottom-up control. Non-coercive, non-exploitative. The playing field can only become uneven if the mass of people desire it to be so; and we know, from recent events (Arab Spring, Occupy Wall Street, ect.) that the mass of people do not desire this.
Wow, this was a lot longer than expected. I totally understand if this is a "tl;dr" situation (I know I would personally pass b it). But, hey, there's my 4-in-the-morning intellectual stimulation. I'll be off to bed after trying to sum up this whole thing as best I can: "Without the state, corporatism cannot exist, meaning capitalism cannot devolve into exploitation/coercion/wage slavery. This means that the rule of law is absolutely detrimental to the free market, as it is established on the foundations of top-down control that lead, unavoidably, to statism and corporatism."
Good night all.

Before & After: Melissa's Under $500 Kitchen Makeover
Good Questions Revisited
Last month, Melissa asked the Apartment Therapy readers to weigh in on whether she should paint her kitchen cabinets. She got 80 comments to consider and went ahead with a full on makeover. We were thrilled that she sent us fantastic "after" photos to enjoy. Jump below for the full gallery and all the details …
Here is Melissa's post-project, wrap up:
A couple of weeks ago you graciously posted a Good Question about my budget kitchen makeover, and here are the results! I got lots (and lots and lots!) of input from AT readers and I'm so thankful. The whole thing cost around $450 and took just a few messy, chaotic weeks. I have two young kids, so I just had to fit in a half hour here, an hour there, hoping that no one would smudge the paint, and eventually it got done.
My kitchen is so much brighter now even though I did nothing to the lighting (I'll deal with that after the holidays). I simply painted everything (including the wood-trimmed countertop edging), replaced all the nasty hinges and knobs with shiny new hardware, used a little fabric here and there, made a rug from FLOR carpet tiles, and framed some illustrations from my Charley Harper calendar. My table and chairs no longer fit in very well, but I think a couple coats of paint and another well-placed FLOR rug will fix that. :)
Again, thanks for all the advice! Especially to the commenters who suggested that I go dark on the lower cabinets - they were dead right!
Thanks, Melissa!
• Should I Paint My Dark Kitchen Cabinets?
120 Comments
Wow! Great job! Such a big bang for so little bucks. Kudos!
Wow, what an inspirational before-and-after. It looks GREAT! Awesome job, Melissa.
I think you did a great job, it looks wonderful! And thank you so much for sending in your after!
What an INCREDIBLE transformation on a budget!! Congrats on the 'new' space. Cooking in there must be a joy! It reminds me of when my boyfriend's mom transformed her kitchen by painting the dated wood cabinets.
I imagine it would look lovely with grey slate tiles if you plan on doing the floors in the future.. but that rug does a fantastic job of taking the attention off the laminate(?).
Great budget-friendly makeover indeed!
Amazing job on the reno, thanks for the update.
Your chairs are great as is, just paint your table white!!!!!!!
Absolutely terrific! It's really lovely. Would love to know what colors you used. Also, have you had a problem with grease and dust on the open shelving?
I love it!
holy crap that is spectacular!!!!!!!!!!!
Great job! I would say leave the table and chairs (don't paint them!)... they warm the space up a bit. :)
It is amazing what a can of paint can do!
This post really should be an ad for paint! Great job.
Where did you get the large clock?
Budget, quick and fabulous redo? I'm all about it!
Yep, really inspiring. The cabinet hardware makes such a difference!
fantastic! and really proves the point that if you have something you want to hide -- that big honking black fridge kind of hanging out in space -- paint what's around it the same color and it all disappears.
pam h
Hi all - Melissa, here - my heart skipped a beat when I saw this posted today! Thanks for the comments. I'm really happy about how it turned out!
Kay: here are my colors - all are Sherwin-Williams latex: walls and backsplash, Willow Tree (matte on walls, semigloss on backsplash); upper cabinets and trim - Westhighland White semigloss; lower cabinets - Urbane Bronze semigloss. And no grease/dust yet on the open shelving -- we use a lot of that stuff every day, so it hasn't been a problem so far. And I LOVE the open shelving more than I ever thought I would (I am a bit messy, and it's forcing me to be tidier).
Ralapack - the clock is Target - I got it 6 or so months ago, I think they have something similar now.
Really, REALLY amazing job! Super jealous now! I've been scouring the FLOR website for my own kitchen rug for the past 20 minutes! :)
dude. Dude. DUUUUUUDE!!!! now THAT'S what I call a makeover!! NICE WORK!
oh yeah; Melissa, would you happen to have the time?
I'm so impressed
It's amazing how even the floor looks better w/ the new colors on the cabinets and walls, how well your wall color coordinates with the FLOR rug and how the dark lower cabinets compliments the black fridge.
Can you tell me how you painted the cabinets? I am a painting virgin. I'm not kidding. I have old cabinets that are chipping and I wonder about the brush lines/smoothness of different methods. Your kitchen looks amazing by the way. Really tasteful and cool at the same time!
I love it!!
wow! how inspiring! congrats, melissa!
Yep, looks fantastic. I painted all my kitchen cabinets too and it is no small task! It is so impressive that you got this done in a relatively short amount of time - and with kids! I think it took me like 3 months with no kids. :)
It looks great! - I do think the charcoal on bottom made the biggest difference.
Lookin' Good. Great job!
Your hard work has paid off well!!!!!!
I also tackled a crazy kitchen before & after - feel free to check it out here:
Wonderful transformation. I really like how the counters and upper cabinets really contrast the lower cabinets. Very nice.
Amazing job, looks beautiful!
Looks fantastic.
WOOOOWWWWWWW! Holy crap, WOW!
Can I just say, 'wow'?
That looks absolutely fantastic. Well done!
stunning. I love how you painted the trim around the counters- it makes the countertop look completely different!
I've often lived in places with identical brown wooden cabinets and have always been nervous about painting them. Never again! These are beautiful. (& with 2 kids?).
Sounds silly, Melissa, but would you happen to be in the Laurel/Ft Meade area?
Looks like some houses we did out there!
Amazing job! I love love the black base cabinets.
What a wonderful transformation! I'm uber-impressed by the style, workmanship, and budget! Bravo!
This is the first time I've seen an update to one of those reader design questions. You did an FANTASTIC job. I think I might have to paint my lower cabinets a dark color, too. Thanks!
Thanks for posting the after pictures. I'm always curious to see the changes. You did a great job! I especially like the FLOR rug.
It looks fantastic!
This is beautiful and is a true testament to what can be done with a bit of elbow grease and creative vision.
Melissa you did an amazing job, especially working about two kiddos:) Congrats.
It came out really nice - hope you'll share another after when you add some lighting as that will really make it finished. Good call on painting the trip on the counters - at first glance I thought they were new!
painting the "edge" that was supposed to be!
Stunning! I love that you painted the lower cabinets a darker color - I might have to steal that idea.
Probably the first before-and-after where I literally dropped my jaw! Such a difference, and for so little money, it's a big change for the better.
Good for you!
As the mother of 3, I bow to you. You did a spectacular job. It looks so modern and ties so wonderfully with the appliances (big and small). The details are great. I love how the light switch cover matches the stainless. Keep up the great work around your home. LOVELY!
wow! I am amazed and inspired.
I love your dining room chairs. They are beautiful!
This is amazing. I was totally anti two tone cabinets when the inital question was posted. But his has really changed my mind. Brilliant job.
totally awesome. excellent job. looks great!
See, THIS is what Apartment Therapy is all about on a good day! A+
Really impressive makeover! It hardly looks like the same room.
Fantastic job. I love it!
Aw, thanks everyone! I've been an AT reader for ages, and an admirer of so many homes that have been featured, so it's so nice to hear all the good feedback.
I love the choice of open storage! Great job!
This project is exactly what AT should be about. Love how positive and supportive everyone has been in the comments, too. Good job Melissa!
I prefered the before ;-)
Nah, just kidding! It is spectacular. Really like the open shelving.
Nice to see the results after a good question.
Is that outlet to the right of the sink a GFCI outlet? It doesn't look like it in the picture, but with two little ones in the house, it should be.
Not that I'm an electrical nazi or anything but that outlet is REALLY close to the sink.
Outstanding! So fresh and up to the minute! I do however, agree with MeganMarguerite in suggesting you leave the table and chairs as they are. The wood gives warmth and interest. I think painting them would take you over the "matchy-matchy" line. After seeing this I may be brave enough to change mine soon!!
LMG - You have really good vision. :) Those outlets are absolutely not GFCI. Our house has the most outdated electrical EVER. We are slowly updating everything, and replacing those are near the top of the list.
I love it!!! It looks so classy and clean.
Once again, I am amazed by what a bit of paint & some hardware can do. You would think after the hundreds of AT/Kitchn posts with before & after paint jobs that I wouldn't be...but I am. This looks great!
And I also don't think you should touch the table & chairs!!
Wow - this looks incredible! Thanks for the update and good work! I especially loooove the rug!
I LOVE it!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for posting the after pics! It's so much fun to see how you interpreted and incorporated everyone's advice. (Including mine!!!!! Love the open shelving. :))
Effin fabulous!
I'm going with what Cashew said! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW! Holy Crap, that's some makeover. Nice job, woman, you rule!
You completely killed it Melissa! Looks fantastic!
That is a 5 star make-over! It's amazing!
Fabulous result for that kind of money! Very inspiring and well done.
Wowza! The open cabinets with wallpaper lining was a stroke of genius and I love the subtle wall colour to tie in with the rug.
Great job. Inspirational result.
Melissa - I scoured the answers in your original post because, I swear, this *is* my kitchen, except with an older stove and vent in vintage yellow. I am positively impatient to paint, and even more so now that I've seen you 'after' pictures!
Your kitchen looks SOOO good now! I think you did a WONDERFUL job and made very smart choices. Painting that trim makes the countertop look new... using these colors pepped up the floor's appearance, and it no longer looks old and tired. A+ to you missy!! A+
You rock!!!!
Rhonda - DO IT! For even more inspiration, have a look at the newest issue of Do It Yourself magazine (it's put out by Better Homes & Gardens) -- there's a 70s kitchen makeover featured that reminds me much of my own. I wish I had seen it before I did mine, though, because in the magazine they used hidden hinges, which for some reason I didn't think I'd be able to use. The hidden hinges look SO much better than the exposed ones!
This is very modern for my tastes and even I love it! You did a great job! So much difference for under $500!
Love the clock, I actually have the same one. It's pretty easy to take apart and spray paint the outer rim black. I think it makes it look 100% classier (and like I didn't pay $10 for it on clearance).
Oooh Ahhh! I love it.
Amazing job! Hard to believe how much brighter it is, even with the dark lower cabinets. Even the vinyl flooring looks good.
SO AMAZING. I also have a 70s kitchen with similar cabinets. I am looking forward to painting ours and this is just the makeover I needed to show my husband how great the dark cabinets look on bottom.
what you said about hidden hinges... You can do that with these types of cabinets?!
Can you explain how you made a rug out of carpet squares? I love the whole thing, but that in particular is a wonderful fun addition.
Beautiful re-do...you did a wonderful job and I had to scroll up and down to look at the before and after SEVERAL times because I just couldn't believe it looks so GREAT...great use of the FLOR tiles too!
Wow! What a change! I love how it turned out, and I am really impressed with how quickly you got everything done--especially with little kids!
Painting the wood trim on the counters was a great idea. I can't believe what a difference it makes. The only thing I don't love is the three doorless cupboards. I think it looks a little unfinished with that style kitchen, but I suppose that's a matter of personal preference (and I do think the wallpaper back is adorable). Either way though, it looks fantastic. Nice work!
Houndstooth - I think you can use the hidden hinges. I didn't even look at them because I figured I had to stick with the standard ones, but...in the magazine they used them and it looked awesome.
imogene - I just bought six tiles and cut them each in half, then made the pattern with them. I applied the stickers to the undersides to hold it together.
I will forever point to this post when people berate others for painting wood (furniture, furnishings, whatnot)... what an amazing transformation and a vast improvement! It's cute as all get out and looks brand new. Great, great job. :)
You did such a great job!!!
Looks fantastic, Melissa, and much nicer than your original mock-up, don't you think? I love the use of wallpaper behind the fridge and in the cupboard, too - so pretty.
You've inspired a lot of us to get on with our kitchen painting!
Okay, this is awesome.
I'm sending it to my parents, who have been stuck with a gnarly kitchen for years b/c they're afraid of making expensive mistakes. Your transformed kitchen is inspiring in every way. Very, very well done.
WOW!!!!!! good job :D
Wow! Great job, and with two kids under foot! So tasteful but not bland...love the light/dark, open/closed, small furniture and big clock juxtaposition.
I have that kettle. LOVE it!
Great work! Looks like a million bucks!
What Atypical Type A said...I especially dig what you did with the open cabinets. The Charley Harper art is a great fit, too! Really nice job; lots of bang for your buck!
Just another person who has to tell you what a great job you did. I love it. I also love seeing the result of an AT question post. AT, lets make it a requirement, shall we!?
$500, time, and TALENT--soo impressed! This is an excellent example of a DIY project gone RIGHT! Who needs a multi-thousand dollar kitchen makeover done by someone else when you can spend very LITTLE and get GREAT results on your own? Awesome job!
Thank you!!
In fact the pattern lining the back of the open shelving and above the fridge is not wallpaper, but a Dwell tablecloth that I got on clearance at Target a while back. I knew that I'd find a use for it!
WOW!!! I remember your original post, and I'm very happy to see how well it turned out! Kudos!
It came out great! Thanks for sharing the after photos.
oh this looks fantastic! i love the charcoal bottom- it anchors the look so well. be proud!
How do you paint countertop?
Oh I'm so impressed by this. GREAT JOB. (I'm a working mom myself, so I can just imagine the mess, possibly stress and effort, energy put into this).
My kitchen is so similar to your before so now you've inspired me to invest in painting my cabinets and countertops. Small investment to make the kitchen 10x better until we can afford to completely redo everything (I do mean things like wiring, etc--we have an older house).
I'm bookmarking this to show my hub when he comes home from work tonight :D
Wonderful paint job! Looks great! Although the rug looks great - personally I'd rather have one I could throw in the washing machine, cause kitchen rugs get NASTY if you cook a lot like I do, but a great makeover, indeed!
I LITERALLY said, "Oooooooh!" out loud at my computer screen when I saw the after pictures, lol. Fantastic, and I love the rug too.
Wonderful job! I am getting ready to paint my cabinets as I put in a green granite counter top as I missed my old green counter from Brooklyn and now I see the kitchen is too dark with the knotty pine cabinets. I hate to paint over beautiful wood but as we can see from your redo at times "the end (really does) justify the means!"! Great job!
kurniakasih - thanks! i didn't paint the countertop, just the wood trimmed edge. i simply cleaned it really well (with tsp, which i cleaned all the cabinets with as well), primed it, and painted it.
sweet t - i am not usually a fan of kitchen rugs for that very reason! i cook A LOT, and that rug will get dirty for sure. luckily the flor tiles are easily vacuumed and can be picked up individually and put right in the sink to be washed. aside from not being able to find a rug that worked as well in the space that was affordable, the cleanability is why i chose it.
thanks all!
Perfect! Wonderful! Fabulous! Job well done! Everything looks so new, bright and clean.
Fantastic job. I like the white upper and black lower cabinets, and love the open shelving. What a dramatic change!
It's amazing what a little bit of paint can do...
You go girl, Great job.
Love your ideas. I think I would like to see more pops of color to offset the bright white, which seems to overwhelm the space. Having said that though, it is still dramatically improved!!
I love it! That was a pretty awesome idea to go dark like that on the bottom; makes it seem as if you've got a floating kitchen.
Coincidentally I'm going to be painting my upper cabinets in a few hours. It's a temporary fix until I can afford to replace the top ones (the bottoms have already been replaced), but seeing as how I will probably be living with it for at least 2 years it should be somewhat attractive.
i absolutely LOVE the open shelving! what a great renovation. it looks more expensive than $450! =)
Mel, you did a terrific job. Congrats!!!
Wow! Under $500. Really amazing!!
sooo much better now! and only 500 - thats creative!
What great inspiration! I wish I'd thought of this in so many of the rental kitchens I've suffered through. And you're right, the darker color on the bottom is perfect in this kitchen.
Very impressive...a huge difference with so little money!!
Beautiful job!!
I love before and afters...it's truly amazing what a coat of paint can do! As far as your table and chairs, I'd paint the table but would leave the chairs. They are fabulous.
I love how it made the floor look whiter. BTW I totally adore Charlie Harper. Love the prints.
@missuswayne, I'm trying to do the same thing with my place, a couple questions, I assume you had to paint the inside of the drawers and cabinets? Also, did you have to cover up the drill holes when you replaced the handles?
This is awesome. It looks like an entirely new kitchen - and for under $500? Undeniably fabulous. I love the wallpaper you're using at the back of your open cabinets.

High Altitude Balloon Launch set for Nov. 19
Trevecca physics students will launch from Trevecca's campus (333 Murfreesboro Road) a helium balloon that will carry student-constructed scientific experiments to an expected altitude of approximately 100,000 feet—near the edge of space.
At that height the balloon will be above 99 percent of the earth's atmosphere, where the curvature of the earth is quite noticeable. Data will be streamed live via high frequency radio transmissions to "mission control" on the Trevecca campus. The balloon will be followed and recovered by a "chase van" that will continuously monitor the balloon's location through GPS.
The launch will take place at noon on Thursday, Nov. 19, in the field between Waggoner Library and Trevecca Community Church.

3) Now we'll cut the tie into a rectangle. Measure the narrowest part of the tie, then trim off the wider portions to that measurement. My tie's narrowest section is 3 inches, so I'm folding my tie in half and cutting 1.5 inches in. This should give you a rectangle with even sides.
4) With the tie folded in half, trim the ends at an angle to form a point.
5) Fold the tie in half lengthwise, with right sides together. Sew one short end shut, and sew the long side with a 1/4 inch seam. I found it's easiest to leave a 3 inch hole for turning in the MIDDLE of the long side. Because it's a narrow tube, this makes turning right side out much easier. Leave the other short end open so you can insert the beads.
6) Turn right side out through the middle hole. Then sew the hole shut with a 1/8 inch topstitch. If you're handsewing, use a blind stitch or ladder stitch.
7) Make a knot in the tie, about 10 inches from the sewn end. This will keep your beads in place.
8) Now it's time to add the beads. I'm using 8 1-inch wooden beads. They cost about $1 per package, but you can experiment and buy whatever is on sale at your craft store, because they won't show.
9) Insert a bead in the tube, and slide it down to the knot. Tie a knot to keep the bead in place, and continue adding beads. Try to keep the front free of seams.
10) Stop when you have about 10 inches of tie left after the last knot. Fold in the raw edges of the tie and topstitch with a 1/8 inch seam. To wear, tie a loose knot at the back of your neck.
1) Begin by ironing the tie. Protect it with a cloth and use steam.
2) Trim the bottom edge so that it's straight. Fold tie tie right sides together, and sew along the short side with a 1/4 inch seam. Rotate the fabric so that the seam is now in the middle.
3) Next sew along the bottom. Use a zig-zag stitch to encase the raw edge. If you're hand-sewing, use a blanket stitch to minimize fraying. Turn right side out.
4) Now we'll add a snap. Hand sew one piece on the interior of the point. Sew the other snap piece where the fabrics meet. Make sure that when you fold the flap down, the two pieces match up.
5) Finally, we'll add the ribbon loop. Cut 5 inches of ribbon and fold in half to make a loop. You can save yourself step 6 by folding this ribbon loop in half lengthwise, making it very skinny. Place in the left corner of your wallet. Sew in place with a zig-zag stitch.
6) Because I didn't think to fold my ribbon in half lengthwise before sewing, I'm doing it now, but sewing a couple of stitches to pinch the ribbon together. This makes the wallet close more securely.
7) If you'd like, you can add a lanyard hook to make it easier to take the wallet on and off your keychain.

A Springfield-born, family business has received national praise.
Rocky's Ace Hardware has been chosen by Home Channel News to get the Retailer of the Year Award.

Town meeting is the municipal legislature in many towns in New England. Town meeting has been called "the purest form of democracy," pure although none of the ingredients are refined. Students of the contaminated version called Congress can restore their faith by studying democracy at full "strength."
Democracy is the form of government where "the majority rules." Americans have historically been giddy about democracy, as they enjoy a system where fifty-percent-plus-one of the voters can have their way on propositions such as:
Recently featured: Town meeting - BioShock
Yesterday's Featured Article - BioShock
BioShock is an award-winning, first-person shooter video game developed by Irrational and released by 2K Games in 2007. The game is set in the underwater city of Rapture in the 1960s. The player identifies with the protagonist, misunderstood perverted mass murderer 'Jack', a character based on the game's main developer, Ken Levine. It is widely regarded as one of the greatest games ever made due to its shocking content, adult themes and political satire, rivaling those sorts of shows that are only screened on HBO after the kids are meant to be in bed.
The game opens with the main protagonist Jack on the transatlantic red-eye flight to an unknown destination. A short clip shows Jack using an empty bag of Quavers in an odd way, followed by his plane crashing into the Atlantic Ocean, killing almost everyone.
Jack manages to survive the crash, and whilst swimming away from the flaming wreckage and bobbing decapitations, spots a darkened lighthouse standing inconspicuously in the middle of the ocean. Balls beginning to freeze, he quickly swims over to it and enters the front door to realise he's inadvertently discovered the entrance to the hidden underwater city of Rapture. With no other plans in his diary for the day, he descends into Rapture and is immediately confronted with blabbering duo Andrew Ryan and Atlas The Sneaky Paddy. (more...)

A GSX decision expected in 10 days
Whatcom County Hearing Examiner Michael Bobbink concluded the second of two public hearings Tuesday over the proposed GSX natural gas pipeline that would cross Whatcom County on its way from Aldergrove B.C. to Vancouver Island.
At issue in the hearing are two permits that Georgia Strait Crossing, or GSX, has applied for. A related issue that GSX attorney Steve Snarr repeatedly asked Bobbink to ignore was whether or not the project requires a major development permit. Meanwhile, GSX is contesting Whatcom County's jurisdiction to issue any permits since under shoreline management rules both the Washington State Department of Ecology (DOE) and the county missed a required 120 day response deadline to GSX's initial application. GSX contends that if the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) approves their project this also gives a blanket approval for all permits at the county and state level if those bodies have not responded with the required 120 days to a permit application.
GSX initially applied for its permits in April, 2001, and received FERC's approval in 2002.
On the other side of the issue, were Whatcom County's team of Jeff Chalfant and Jim Thompson from the planning and department services and whatcom county chief civil deputy prosecutor Randy Watts. Watts insisted that GSX needs to go through the more involved permitting process required by a major development permit, which then goes to county council, where "the county council will turn you down flat I guarantee," he said bluntly. Applications under the major development permit process have no time limits, so the county and state's jurisdiction is not an issue because there are no time limits or deadlines GSX could have violated, according to Watts.
Thompson explained later that GSX initially applied for both a conditional use permit and a substantial development permit to run their natural gas pipeline. "But since the project's worth more than $5 million and required an environmental impact statement (EIS) then the rule is that it has to go through a different process, or regime. It requires a major development permit," Thompson said, "and on that there's no time limit for responding because the procedures tend to be lengthy and complex."
Thompson said that initially the county believed Williams only needed the two shorelines permits but later notified that major development regime would have to be followed. GSX disagrees and has thus far refused to file for a major development permit.
to Thompson, Bobbink "could decide in any
number of ways, remanding the issue back to GSX
for a more complete application or referring it on to
the county council for example."
The Washington State Department of Ecology has filed suit in 10th Federal District Court in Denver contesting FERC's assertion that the state and local approval process were vacated. Snarr left Tuesday's proceedings early in order to attend a hearing at the court on Wednesday. The lawsuit has been joined by Fred Felleman, an environmentalist who heads Fuel Safe Washington.
"This [pipeline] idea is just plain stupid," Felleman said, echoing the words of several others in the room. "There's a lot of problems with this but the bigger issue is why would we want to allow these guys to dig a trench right through the best herring spawning eel grass beds in the area when this project has no local benefit?" Felleman pointed out that the herring stock in the area has already suffered a substantial decline.

Christmas is coming faster than we expected and finding the right gift for your loved ones is sometimes a real challenge. Challenging moments get a little easier with help from companies like Ferrari , which has unveiled a sweet Granturismo Automatic Watch. It is priced at €940 — roughly $1,249 at the current exchange rates — and is available in either silver or black.
This handsome watch gets it inspirations from the elegance and the exclusivity of the GT vehicles produced in Maranello. It features an automatic ETA 2824 Swiss-made movement and is easily recognizable by its distinctive Ferrari details, including: a steel box with matte black PVD treatment, black dial in carbon fiber with Ferrari logo, anti-glare glass and the strap in 316L steel. The watch also carries a waterproof rating up to 5 atm. and weighs just 79 grams (0.17 pounds).

Chris Brown will not be prosecuted for allegedly grabbing an iPhone from a woman outside of a Miami nightclub in February, reports TMZ.com . According to a police report on the incident, Brown was accused of "robbery by sudden snatching" after he allegedly snatched the cell from a lady outside the Cameo nightclub and told her, "B****, you ain't going to put that on no website."
However, the Miami-Dade State Attorney tells TMZ, "The Miami Beach Police Department and my prosecutors have reviewed all of the evidence and taken the statements of numerous witnesses, many of whom were interviewed in California, and have determined we are not taking any type of criminal action regarding the incident."
Prosecutors determined that the woman could have placed her phone in Brown's car, and the singer just "[removed] from the vehicle an object which didn't belong there," without breaking any laws.
Brown is fortunate that prosecutors are dropping the case. If he were to be prosecuted for this incident, it would have resulted in a probation violation for the singer in Los Angeles, where he's still on probation for his assault of Rihanna .

STURGEON BAY, WI (WTAQ) - A bridge on the only state highway in Sturgeon Bay will be closed for about four months.
The state DOT says it will make almost $5 million in repairs to the Highway 42-57 Bayview Bridge.
It will close on Monday, March 4th – and it's expected to be re-open by the 4th of July. In the meantime, traffic will be re-routed through various parts of Sturgeon Bay, and drivers are being told to expect delays.
The Bayview Bridge opened in 1978, and its last major repairs were made nine years ago.
The new project includes structural steel repairs and painting – plus upgrades to machinery and electrical facilities.
