Paint Color Ideas for Shutters?
Good Questions
Q: My shutters are currently brown and need painting. I'm trying to decide if they should stay brown, or be painted another color. (I'm not planning to change the cream accent color anytime soon.) Any suggestions?

I would just take them off.
Match the door and go with cream...you can barely see the brown.
It might be nice to paint both the door and the shutters an accent color and brighten them up. Some ideas:
Darker color of your siding maybe:
Maybe even a glossy black:
Glossy black, and then paint the front door bright red or robin's egg blue. That's what we did for our home, which is very similar to yours and I love the result.
Based on your Americana accessories, I think you might like the Old Village paint palette. The website isn't the best, but the palette is very nice.
Go here, then click the color card: http://www.old-village.com/products.html
British Red or Rittenhouse Green jumps out at me to coordinate with your trim and brick. Wild Bayberry could work too.
The exterior of my house is done in these colors. They all work very well together. It is an excellent quality paint, but you could easily color match and do fine with another brand. The front of my house is a cream color, the doors are New England red. A smaller door near the stone part of my house is done in Antique Sage green. It looks dynamite. I don't think you could go wrong using this palette with your brick and existing trim. Good luck! And, please share your before and after.
They don't contrast enough to show up at all, so you need to (a) change the brown to some other color or (b) stay with brown but go darker or lighter than the brick in the background. (A) is an iffy choice because your overall look is so harmonious now, and you don't want to risk having shutters that are too grabby for attention. (You could get away with an accent color on the door if you crave color, but the cream framing is already plenty effective at making the door your focal point.) (B) is a better choice. Either switch to a very dark brown, almost black, or try to match the lighter tone of your roof.
Great idea to repaint the shutters another color - the brown disappears entirely now. I like the cream accents.
Ordinarily, I'd encourage a red door and a brick red one might work, but I think a green would be better - something between kelly green and black-green.
I would then either paint the shutters cream.
I know you didn't ask, but some flowers along the walk in front would be terrific - if you choose a color other than the green/cream I've suggested, you could echo the color choice in the flower bed. In that case a blue door with cream shutters and blue flowers (or red flowers) would be fabulous.
do the shutters and door in glossy black, and keep the cream trim. but don't have any other colors other than the brick, like don't have a black door, brown screen door, cream trim, etc. too many colors just looks like crap. keep it really simple and limited. makes a huge difference. in my opinion.
if you are the type that likes shudders and door the same color, i might suggest something similar to sherwin williams Colonial Revival Green Stone.
if you like shudders and door different (as I do, but not everyone does), Sherwin Williams Rookwood Red (door) and Rookwood Dark Green (shudders) would go well together. Make sure to paint your storm door the same color.
I might also suggest adding a nice bright door knocker with a matching kickplate to kick up the curb appeal.

Yet another vote for the glossy black (door and shudders). I think that would look great!
I think a cream would look gorgeous, but a red could also as some pop without seeming too trendy.
Shutters= bright sage green
Door = light blue
I also have to say-- what a cute house!
I third the recommendation for a bright color. I would go with a bold red, something like a fire engine red or the British Red from Old Vilage that Stiletto Peel said.
Your house could use a pop of color, to my taste. Even if you don't go for the red, try not to go with a too light color that shows too much dirt.
There are a lot of homes with shutters near where I live, and while I'm walking around I'm usually most fond of the look of the ones where the color of the shutters matches the color of the window trim. I think painting them a matching cream would look really pretty/put-together and would also lighten the look of the whole house a bit, if that's something you're after.
What a cute house!
I also vote for painting the shutters the same cream color as the trim and the framed portion of your house. Then choose a bright contrasting color for the front door.
I would paint them green. Somewhere between kelly and hunter. It will stay true to the style of the house.
Are the shutters functional? It seems as if your mailbox is preventing you from using your shutters. I don't know why in the US people don't use or purposefully install "decorative" shutters. In Europe even new buildings have functional shutters, to the point where curtains are certainly more seldom seen than here.
I say -- before you paint -- move the mailbox to at least give the look of working shutters. Looking -- & I had to look closely -- I see they are an interesting shape. I would go bold, I think teal, or even turquoise or a bold punch of chartreuse; I'd also do the door in that color & I think cream is better than white so the trim is fine! ;)
The shutters are nearly invisible in the picture and I cannot imagine a beautiful, shinny black being more visible, so I'd suggest a color that can be seen from the street. I'm not crazy about the cream, but it sure would be more visible than any dark color. I would love to see a sage green or smoky blue on both the door and shutters. Not a garish color, but something that will be seen from the street.
Great house! I would go green - it'll provide a nice contrast to the brick, and tie into the landscape. Avocado/olive shades would work well with the cream trim.
Robin's egg blue!!!!
I think there's a theme here with votes for glossy black shutters. Came across this lovely look with the bright green door accent on the brick and black and cream: http://www.oldhouseonline.com/exterior-paint-color-placement-ideas/
I also like the black shutters with a cream door - it really highlights the door without throwing in the big color spot: http://lh5.ggpht.com/_hUw_VQ5l9r0/S6YLUm2ouPI/AAAAAAAAG5Q/l_0HLNLOhmo/s1600-h/4326337401_e0fbb42c64_b13.jpg.
But if you wanted something other than black, I think the blue or taupe milky colors look lovely: http://media-cache-ec0.pinimg.com/originals/41/a8/7a/41a87aee6aaa1de03d195780abd9c27e.jpg http://media-cache-ec0.pinimg.com/originals/15/f0/5c/15f05c9562bf71cdaba944f9f50fbdf1.jpg
Before I even read the other comments, I was thinking about how nice a light blue would look on those shutters - reading through the comments, it seems I'm not alone in that opinion. A light blue with just a hint of green to warm it up, like a Tiffany & Co. box, or a robin's egg.
I had to look really hard because I was thinking What shutters? They blend in so much that they are almost invisible. The house needs some brightening up, I would vote for the cream.
I'd go with a dark green - a bit stronger contrast, but not too vivid.
It depends on what you want cream shutters will make your window area larger and take up a lot of the front of your home. Black won't. Door color! What color is inside? While I love a red door, turquoise or another color may coordinate better.
There is a home right near me that I've always loved with a similar brick and trim colour. They've chosen a dark blue (almost a navy) for the door and shutters and I think it looks great- http://www.pinterest.com/pin/40250990394626442/
I vote black shutters and a color on the door. Maybe a sage green on the door.
Adorable! Is it possible to sample different possible colors of the shutters and door on photoshop? That might help you to picture it better. Good luck!
Very cute house! I echo the green/blue votes (somewhere in the range of sage to robins egg) The house is so dark with the brown shutters that some color would work really nicely. Not a huge fan of painting the door and shutters the same color - its more welcoming when your eyes are drawn right to the door, so I'm giving the darkness of the photo the benefit of the doubt because it looks a bit overcast when it was taken - I think you could do some color on the door and get away with the glossy black on the shutters. I'd also maybe find a color that blends in well with the brick and use it on that bit of siding (?) under the left window.
Unrelated, but for some extra curb appeal I'd also swap out the hedges under the left window for something bushier and flowering and use plants to bring in more color throughout. Take out the hedges entirely in front of the right window, and replace the chairs with a cute set of bistro ones (summer is practically over, as far as patio furniture sales go, so stores will start putting them on clearance soon!)
I'm racking my brain trying to figure out a better way to do the mailbox, because it looks awkward hanging on the shutter. Can you install a mall slot on the door instead? It seems you want to keep them but personally I'd take the shutters off both windows and install a bigger decorative light fixture and mail box to the right of the door and larger black house numbers going vertically down the left side.
First choice: Teal of medium intensity, especially if you are a little on the adventurous side. Second choice: sage or lichen, in medium intensity, if you are a little more conservative. This goes for both the door and the shutter. You could power wash the bricks and see if they are so dark because of years of dirt accumulation and see if a lighter color brick makes your decision any easier.
Very cute house. The cream trim is nice with the mortar and the roof.
sage green!
Do you know what direction (NEWS) your house faces? Using that, you can find colours appropriate for Feng Shui.
A good colour calculator is here: http://redlotusletter.com/resources/color-calculator/
This one gives you options for "whole house" and specific rooms. It's been helpful for me trying to figure out what colours for the shutters & exterior doors. Wouldn't have thought of the suggested purples...my house faces due North.
This is one of the fun things with AT. Sharing thoughts & ideas. I'd love to see your "After", too! Wouldn't it be cute if your house was West facing and you decided upon a Jonquil yellow!
I agree with several other posters. If the shutters are non-functional, I'd remove them. If they are working shutters, sage green would look great on both the shutters and the front door so that they stand out. Your house is absolutely adorable! I wish I could see the 'after' photo.
My vote is some sort of obnoxious bright color...
but the tasteful side of me agrees with light cream.
Put in some matching window boxes and living that cute little home up!
Really cute house, Michelle.
Honestly, I thought you had already removed the shutters. They are so dark, they blend right in with the brick! I still can't see them on the windows to the left. If there are only shutters on the one window, I would consider taking them down and putting up a window box, as some others have suggested.
The color that jumped into my head without giving it any thought was blue. A powder blue, robin's egg blue, Tiffany blue. I see a lot of others had the same idea. Not only do I think it would complement the brick, but the siding on the addition and your roof as well.
But I'd change the front door color. I see a red door and I want it painted black.
Also, I would paint or replace the green chairs if you go with blue shutters.
Have fun with your decision and I hope you let us see it when its done!
Oh, and PS: why all the talk about removing non-functional shutters? I've never heard that objection before, ever. Most shutters I see are purely a decorative embellishment, and what's wrong with that?
Sorry, me again. Yes, move the mailbox. OK, I'm leaving now.
Think about the brick they are on - use nothing in the red family. Whatever you choose, the door should be the same color. otherwise you've got too much going on. The door opens in on your house, so whatever color you're using in that front hall should be somewhat in keeping. Greens, blues, black, charcoal.
For those who questioned it; 'non-functional' shutters are seen often in America (these are hard to see but look as if they theoretically could work). This is when you see two tiny decorative and probably plastic shutters at either end of a big picture window. It's silly. Shutters should at least appear as if they could cover the window they are next to even if they never would be used in that way . it's a basic design concept that bothers those who notice it; but lots of people don't.
I vote for a nice red for both shutters and door. And more of those yellow day lilies - I love the yellow/orange with the brick. House is lovely.

Hi Heather. For TPR for our son, the court gave his first mom more time the first time, the second time she didn't show up so it was postponed and the third time she came and agreed to TPR. Each time, the actual time in the court room only lasted a few minutes. The recommendation is decided upon ahead of time. If the dad shows up, his appointed lawyer will ask him if he wants to fight TPR. If he does, the judge will consider that and make a decision. I hope all goes well for all of you. Julie
We have had our placement for two months a 3 year old little girl and 2 year old boy/girl twins. We have TPR trial in a week for dad (mom has already relinquished). I have only ever met the caseworker. I have no clue what to expect for trial. It is scheduled from 9am-5pm and is 2 hours away. It is going to be a very long exhausting day. Anyone that has been there and done that with words of advice. What will court look like, what will happen?
I just launched my new eBook "Shield: A Framework of Self-Care for Foster and
Adoptive Families". My hope is that it will provide help and encouragement to
those in all stages of adoption. For more information, please visit

Walking distance to Disneyland
No free breakfast & no free parking
Best beds and pillows I have ever had.
All good
One of the staff was being rude. She was easily frustrated.
The hotel is right across the street from the Disneyland main gate. Only 5 minutes walk. Can see the firework from the outside of the room. Restaurants and a convenient store is within walking distance. Rates was reasonable. The best Disneyland visit ever.
Wish they did not charge for parking. But the rate wasn't too bad compare to the hotel right next door.
We loved the room set up with two queens in one room and a king and sofa couch in the other! The refrigerator was handy and from our balcony we could see the Disney fireworks.
Paying for parking is a drag! No breakfast offered is also a bummer. A deeper pool would have been nice.
Close to Disneyland Clean and comfortable
Right beside Disney land, inexpensive, pool was nice, rooms were clean. Valet was a nice security feature.
Carpet was old.
I will have to say for the price , the location , the service why pay more. I would definitely stay here again once I plan to visit Disneyland again. You guys were great !
One small thing, you guys need to place bigger trash bins in the room or maybe more than one. We only had one tiny trash bin underneath the bathroom sink.
They do not provide eith shampoo and soap
The hotel was so close to Disney. The room was very large - we were in a family suite. It suited us perfectly.
There was no breakfast like at other hotels and the charged for parking.
Right across the street from the main entrance, closer than Disneyland Hotel! When you go to Anaheim to go to Disneyland do you really ever get to go to the pool???No, so, although they had a pool, we loved the location because we didn't have to wait to get back to bed or back to the park! Fabulous!!!
Super clean room and sparkling bathroom. Housekeeping kept the room in wonderful shape Beds were quite comfortable
The air conditioner fan, which we kept on all night long, was rather noisy The coffeemaker on the bathroom counter made only tepid coffee
a cockroach was inside the room
Great location if you will visit Disneyland! It is just crossing the street
Noisy room, you can hear steps from upper room
lying front desk( I asked housekeeping when was my room ready-before 2pm, front desk never called like they said they would and had no idea where my phone number was that I have given them. I had to tell the valets twice which one was my keys even tho I gave them a matching ticket!!! Valet cars were parked in front of non valet cars and couldn't get out. The first time I laid on your bed , I rolled off to the floor, had to sleep in the middle of the bed. Location is the only thing you got going for you. We come to Disneyland every year(16 years in a row!!) we have a list of hotels we like and don't like, you can guess which list you are on. We stayed there because of a recommendation - we have already let my friend know how wrong they were. Thanks for the time to let you know how I feel about your place.
We were upgraded to a suite & the valet parking was free. Disneyland across the street was AWESOME!
You shouldn't have to pay for parking if you are a guest
I enjoyed everything. We were very comfortable.
The room we got was excellent for seeing fireworks every night. Beds were fine. Renting a scooter was a god send for when I got a backache 4day into trip. Plus restaurants were close by and ranged in prices. Oh and McDonalds next door.
Room was shorted on soap and some towels and cups. Chairs in room were very uncomfortable need to be changed out or cleaned. Maid kept turning off air conditioner when we returned, room was warm. Would've been nice to have some stationary and information in rooms as to where things were located at close by.
We loved that it was right across the street from Disneyland, and that made it so convenient for us.
The room was clean, kids like it, we were across from the pool. It was nice to be able to walk across the street to Disneyland. We were able to watch the fireworks from our room.
I asked for a roll away bed when I checked in,didn't get it. Asked again the next morning with extra towels, got the towels, the bed was there but not set up, had to call desk for help to set up, this was 11 o'clock at nite the kids were tired. Didn't know that I was going to be charged parking while we were staying there, found out when I checked out.
I did not like all the taxes. I've never paid an occupancy tax. My bill was $159 more than was expected which did not make me happy. The parking was not convenient as the lots always seemed full f
Pool too shallow. no breakfast. parking spaces limited.
Location, Clean rooms
Bedding wasnt so great...I scratched & scratched all night???!!!

Don't you wish you could see who dinged your car door, or roughed up your front end while shopping at Bloomingdales for your girlfriend? Or even see whose cat or dog climbed on your car (sorry had to use the picture). Well now you can.
Four Canadian students have invented a car alarm that is coupled with a dueling camera system. The cameras are activated by motion sensor, capture the image, and then store it to a local hard drive in the car. The pictures are then sent, we assume, via email to the owner.
Unfortunately, the system can only be installed on cars sporting a computer system. Also don't expect to see this product in the mainstream as the inventors aren't even patenting the alarm system.
Now if they can just figure out a way to capture license plate info of any offending cars/drivers.

By now you probably have a whole host of cables sitting in a junk drawer some where in your home. You can thank Sony, Apple, Samsung and many other electronic brands for this. In the last few years there has been a push to unify the charging cables that often are included with portable gadgets. The industry standard was supposed to be mini-USB, but if you've bought a camera or a battery pack for your smartphone then you know that is the furthest thing from the truth. And then there is Apple, which continues to use their own proprietary port, largely in the name of profits. So at the end of the day we're left searching for the right cable amongst a see of cords to charge our devices.
Enter Innergie's Magic Cable Trio. It doesn't just boast 3 adapters for the aformentioned ports, but a unique and ingenious design that allows you to quickly, and easily attach which ever plug you need. And best of all you'll never have to search for the adapter since they're always attached thanks to a hinged design that rotates (or flips) the plugs you don't need out of the way allowing you access to the ones you do.
It's a no brainer for $19.99.

Love Worth Finding - Apr. 3, 2009
April 3
Help Yourself to Happiness
"Blessed are they that keep His testimonies, and that seek Him with the whole heart." Psalm 119:2
Have you ever thought that if you lived according to God's laws, you were going to miss out? The truth is if you don't live according to God's laws you're going to miss out!
God's laws are for your welfare. God is not a tyrant in heaven making a bunch of laws to make you squirm like a worm in hot ashes as you try to keep those laws.
God loves you.
Every time God says "Thou shalt not," God is simply saying, "Don't hurt yourself." And every time God says, "Thou shalt," God is saying, "Help yourself to happiness."
God has something so wonderful for you.
Write the following down on some sticky notes and post them everywhere:
- God loves me.
- God knows better than I do.
- God is in control.
- God is good.

Most definitely Kingslayer Orkus' chain in Hillsbrad. My eyes were tearing up by the end of it, which was made even more profound by the fact that he's a complete idiot when you first come across him.

Alliance Redridge Mountains: Corporal Keenan Quest chain turned out to be the most epic emo storyline I'd ever played. Still got my Bandana and Bravo Company ring : ) BRAVO HOOAH!
I completely agree. I was actually kind of shocked at the end of that quest, and I'm still wearing the bandanna, even though it looks kind of stupid on worgen models.
But seriously, that entire quest chain was amazingly awesome from beginning to right up 'till the end. Then, at the end, it surpasses words. I really want to personally thank whoever designed that quest, because they are true geniuses.
"AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH! AAAHHHHH! AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!" (Actual quote)

Miss Dior Has You Covered
This week, Dior will inaugurate an exhibition in tribute to the brand's original, groundbreaking perfume, Miss Dior, at the Grand Palais, in Paris. Launched by Christian Dior in 1947, Miss Dior was named for his beloved sister, Catherine, and its green chypre blend was a bold break from the powdery fragrances of the day—a gambit, like the New Look, that became an instant hit. For the Miss Dior exhibition, the house gave carte blanche to fifteen female designers from all horizons, whose challenge it was to reinterpret the spirit of the fragrance. In an exclusive preview, Style.com spoke with Ionna Vautrin, who took the iconic Dior silk glove and spun it into an architectural feat called Gloriette.
You've won two Wallpaper awards (in 2009 and 2011), as well as a prize from the City of Paris, for your creations. Is that why Dior reached out to you for this project?
I don't think it was because of any one piece. I think it was probably more of a whole. My work is rather feminine and maternal, and I'm guessing that that is what brought me to their attention.
How did the collaboration come together?
It all took shape very simply. When I met with Dior, they presented to me the history of Miss Dior and its codes—the bow, the houndstooth, the dresses, et cetera. Gloves, of course, were a part of the story. I was intrigued by the idea of diverting that shape into a more decorative element that evokes an iconic fragrance.
How did you go about creating Gloriette?
That part wasn't necessarily so simple! I finally came up with the idea of creating a kind of "micro-architecture" that was somewhere between couture and architecture. I found a very silky technical fabric and had it made into thousands of gloves. Gloriette speaks to a lot of the house codes at once: The layers of gloves that make up the roof create a kind of rosette, or flower; it also suggests a tutu or a dress or a fan, but at the same time, there's also kind of an animal appeal—it could be feathers on a rare bird. In the end, Gloriette is a giant kiosk, a bit like the luxurious Follies Dior designed to present his perfumes, but in an XXL version.
What does it say about the perfume?
The roof picks up the Miss Dior color codes of black, white, and pink, of course. But what I find even more compelling is that it stimulates the imagination around the creation of perfume: It is something you pass through. You can linger or not, but it is something that you can use and spend time with. Where this fits in with my work is that you can look at it and see many things at once. Lots of different impressions come together whether you are looking at it from the inside—which is like standing under a crinoline—or viewing it from the outside. That said, I am a designer; I don't consider myself an artist.
For you, what's the difference between art and design?
The difference for me is that, as a designer, I am in the habit of creating things that should be useful and functional: A chair should be useful every day. I look at design as sitting at the intersection of what is practical and utilitarian—and technical in terms of production—but also sculptural, because an object should spark desire. I think there's an earthy quality to design. I love telling a story, but I'm not looking to make a political statement. An object's first purpose is to be functional.
How does design differ from fashion?
For me, fashion is a separate art. It's a bit like sculpture. When you look at what Christian Dior was doing, it was very sculptural. Creating silhouettes demands know-how, good taste, precision, and sophistication. You have to have a keen sense of detail. It's really a very special, specific profession. It really demands that you dedicate your life to it, and it's reinvented constantly.
Did Miss Dior alter anything about how you see design?
This was a chance for me to have a project that was just a little bit zany. I think I am more known for designing small, domestic objects, and Miss Dior allowed me to explore new territory on a few levels. Because the show is designed to travel, it presented a specific set of challenges. Everything has to disassemble and reassemble easily, like Legos. It made me want to explore scenography and micro-architectures.
How familiar were you with Miss Dior before this project?
Obviously, I knew the bottle, because it's an icon. Beyond that, funnily enough, years ago I got my start working in a design studio that only did perfume bottles! So I knew Miss Dior's shape, fragrance, and a bit of its history. It's amusing to have gone from a time in my life when I was designing perfume bottles—not for Dior, mind you—to finding myself on the flip side, telling a story about a perfume through a decorative piece. For me, Miss Dior is a classic, like any other emblematic object. It's a reference. And there's also the fact that, in its day, Miss Dior was renegade. It's the radical side that I find the most touching.
The Esprit Dior, Miss Dior exhibition will be on show at the Grand Palais from November 13 to 25, 2013.

Actress Mayim Bialik Hurt in Car Crash, Tweets Her Condition
HOLLYWOOD, Calif. (KTLA) -- Emmy-nominated actress Mayim Bialik was back on set Thursday, a day after she was rushed to the emergency room after a car crash.
In a Twitter message on Thursday, she said she was "doing OK. Grateful. And tired."
Bialik, the former star of TV's "Blossom" and currently appearing in CBS' "Big Bang Theory," was rushed to the hospital shortly before noon Wednesday.
The crash caused both of her car's main air bags to deploy and left her with "severe lacerations to her left hand and thumb," Los Angeles Police Lt. Andrew Neiman said.
The 36-year-old actress was driving through Hollywood Boulevard and La Brea Avenue when her Volvo collided with a car turning west on Hollywood Boulevard, Neiman said.
Bialik was driving alone at the time of the collision, Neiman said. The other car was carrying a group of people from Chile.
Bialik sent a message Wednesday on Twitter saying she was "in pain but will keep all my fingers."Copyright © 2014, Hartford Courant

Law Enforcement Officer, government agency
This conversation is closed.
Has the time come for the U.S Second Amendment to be repealed or amended?
After yesterdays tragic shooting in Newtown CT and the worst year ever for firearm related deaths and mass killings , has the time for the US Government to tell the Gun Lobby it is over and repeal or amend "the right of the people to bear arms".
Should it be repealed on the grounds that when originally written it was for a smaller population to defend the "State" and meant for Muskets and flintlocks not semi automatics and military hardware, which makes it no longer viable on account of relevance to this day and age.
That Militia should be held to Law Enforcement agencies, Military and government controlled Para military agencies, with a show need, clause for people such as certain Primary producers etc.
Is it time to tell the NRA and the Gun Lobby there will be no more "collateral" damage no matter how much you donate to the "Party"
What would be the best way for the government to enforce such a law???
And please no Guns do not kill people, people kill people debates it was people who invented firearms in the first place.
The time has come to realise it is mainly our children who pay the ultimate price for lack of diligence in monitoring a problem that has been there for far too many years.
Closing Statement from Morgan Barnes
Firstly I would like to say I did not flag or delete anyone's comments I am perfectly capable of speaking for myelf however I did get frustrated and had some comments deleted myself.
As I write this President Obama has signed 23 executive orders inline with Colleen's post from yesterday from New York.
I have to admit I am a little disappointed that we could not of just discussed the issue in a more calm, critical and logical manner and be able to offer solutions as well as recognised the underling causes, as this is a forum for open ideas and thinking, Then again we are dealing with human nature.
To those of you from the International community thank you for your imput and allowing people to see the different views helds in different parts of the world on this subject.
I will not deny that the Constitution and The Bill Of Rights are the backbone of America, but remember it was written by man not given by god and man can take it away or amend it, if he really wants too.
I am a believer that in the 21st Century we should use it to advance humankind to address the problems of the world and improve it for all. It won't be easy but we have to start somewhere or we risk implementing our own destruction.
I hope that this be a positive start and and an even more positive step in which the US can show the way.
Once again I thank you all for your contributions

Jan 10 2013: Please don't miss this post by MORGAN BARNES. He wrote it in response to my listing the names of the people killed at WACO by rogue government agents who were never brought to justice.
"Less than 5 minutes ago: David Koresh was a fruitloop he had been caching and modifying weapons for a number of years, he had been involved in drug manufacturing and also been accused of assault all under the supposed protection of "religious freedom" That siege was 51 days if I had been in charge I wouldn't of waited that long and it was Koresh who ultimately started the fire and killed his own followers.
Okay the Law Enforcement made mistakes gee guess what not everyone is perfect, problem is when Law enforcement get it wrong we are the worst thing since to happen since the black plague.
At least when we do get it wrong we learn from our mistakes and try to make sure it never happens again."
Jan 10 2013: Did you want everyone to read where you simply invented a Koresh Drug connection? In a world where you feel it is your prerogative to manufacture statements about a dead man in order to justify his death at the hands of cowardly government agents, you get a zero in the moral compass barometer.

[RahRah] Keepin' it real!
[2Pac] How old are you nigga?
[RahRah] I'm eleven
from 2Pac (Ft. Dramacydal) – Outlaw Lyrics on Genius
Pac sets the tone of the song by allowing his listeners to eavesdrop on an adult sounding conversation between himself and a child that has obviously been exposed to the Thug Life for quite some time. It suggests that the outlaw lifestyle is not one that will go away anytime soon. Given the fondness in Pac's voice, it can also be gleaned that the child reminds Pac of himself when he was a youngster and that the cycle is a vicious, continuous one.

Some of central Virginia's sharpest minds are moving on to higher competition after this year's Piedmont Regional Science Fair.
More than 350 students from nine counties flooded the floor of John Paul Jones Arena Wednesday afternoon - the largest number of entrants in the fair's 32-year history.
Projects span 17 categories, from earth science to cell and microbiology.
"If they can do a project using the scientific method, we can find a category for them. So there's really everything as simple as using baking soda, to laboratories at UVA," said Adrian Felts, Piedmont Regional Science Fair director.
The top two teams got an all-expenses-paid trip to Phoenix, Arizona for the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair in May.
All other first-place winners advance to the state competition in April.

Thought I would look up a few counsel members in True Automation - to see what they contribute as far as property taxes.
I will start with Daniel M. Tejada.
He pays $590.00 in property taxes.
When he wants to spend the taxpayers money and is willing to put Floresville at risk - then to know how little he contributes - this is plain wrong.
You all go to True Automation - go to Wilson County - look at what some of our officials are paying in property taxes. Some are or where claiming Home Stead on two homes. You will notice if they have land - it will have some exemption that allows them to pay extremely little.

Concept Art - Banjo Kazooie
Banjo Kazooie is a N64 video game released in North America in 1998. The game was an action-adventure single player platformer starring Banjo the bear and Kazooie, a fictitious bird called a "breegull". The franchise was developed by Nintendo and developed my Rare. Rare along with the franchise has since been bought by Microsoft for $375 million. The story involves Banjo's sister, Tooty being kidnapped by an evil neighboring witch named Gruntilda (or Grunty for short) in an attempt to steal her youth. The game takes place mainly in the witch's lair containing many imaginative sub-worlds that Banjo and Kazooie could venture through. The game was aesthetically pleasing for its day and its intuitive interweaving of puzzles and abilities is still beloved to this day. The game's success has given birth to several sequels including "Banjo-Tooie", "Banjo Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge" and "Banjo Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts". The concept art shows how big and bold this game aimed to be even for its day. For those who have never tried their hand at this classic, the game can be purchased through xbox live.

People can already respec before 80. Dual specs are a way to make frequent respecs more convenient. They add NOTHING new to the game from a content standpoint. A max level character can set-up a dual spec and then go to town for an A/B switch, significantly reducing the gold and complexity of respeccing. An under max level character would need to go to town to update two specs every time they level in order to keep it useful significantly increasing the gold and complexity of respeccing. Its fine for Blizzard to impliment it at some point if there is actually demand, but think about what it means before you get all worked up.

I really love snapfish prints and was excited to get my 100 free prints every month for getting their app, but it just keeps restarting when I'm almost ready to order them and I lose all the pictures I've selected. It will also only let me view one of my Facebook albums and takes forever to load it (also only loads if I scroll to the bottom and wait a minute then scroll back up for some reason. Ha
(54 stars)
Every time I upload my free 100 prints (plus more) the upload fails! So aggravating when it takes forever to get to 60/115 uploaded. No issues with internet connection. Using strong WiFi and backup 4GLTE. Uninstalling now.

Cannot open up my friends album from the app. Very frustrating!

It won't upload my pictures. When I try to add an album, it never appears. Sometimes it doesn't even want to open and crashes.,

THERE are many reasons why dogs pull when on a lead - many of them originating from high levels of long-term stress caused by the pain and choking sensation around the dog's throat and neck. Pulling on a collar and lead is a rewarding behaviour for many dogs because the pain always goes when the lead is taken off, and the quicker the dog gets to its destination the sooner the painful ordeal will be over.
A harness overcomes these problems as it removes the unpleasant sensation around the dog's throat and neck so that the dog feels less inclined to pull. It also allows the dog freedom to use its head to explore its surroundings, and use calming signals and "polite" body language to the humans and dogs it meets (see www.dog-games.co.uk/calm.htm for more details).
Therefore, over the past year or so I have been doing research into finding kind and effective harnesses that I can recommend and/or sell. Some of my most useful findings were at the Pet Dog Trainers of Europe AGM in Germany in 2003 when I was able to discuss with the delegates the drawbacks and merits of a variety of different designs of harnesses, and the different types of materials that their harnesses were made from. Here are some of our findings:
* Leg holes. There should be two clip-buckles on the girth-strap, either side of the lead ring so that the dog does not have to lift its leg(s) in order to have the harness put on - yet another stressful and unpleasant experience for some dogs.
* Design. The angle at which the neck-strap comes off the dog's back should be approximately 90 degrees so that the harness fits comfortably on the dog's shoulder blades. Some harness designs are so impractical that they hinder the dog's natural gait and movement, and in extreme cases can actually cut into their body.
* Materials. Many harnesses are being made from hard-wearing materials that actually rub and irritate the dog's skin, either with their hard, sharp edges or from the build up of static electricity as they rub against the dog's coat.
* Padding. A few harness manufacturers have tried to overcome these drawbacks by sewing padding into various parts of the harness (eg around the neck, chest, or across the dog's back.) Unfortunately, padding cannot be used on straps where the adjustment buckles slide up and down. At the AGM a great deal of thought was given to overcoming this dilemma, otherwise harnesses would have to be individually made for each dog.
* Buckles and clips rubbing. Plastic clip-buckles or adjustment-buckles are often found to be rubbing against the dog. This is because they have been placed near the top of the dog's legs where there is constant movement. These plastic fittings should be carefully placed so that they do not rub against the dog and also have padding underneath them so that they do not rub.
* Stretched when pulled. Most harnesses are made in such a way that they are supposed to fit a wide variety of shapes and sizes of dogs. However, this means that the dog can stretch and distort the harness as the adjustment buckles gradually become loose and the straps lengthen so that the dog can slip out of the harness, or get its foot caught in it as it runs.
* No slipping. Both the girth-strap and the neck-strap should be securely fastened to either each other or to the back-strap to prevent them from twisting or slipping when the dog pulls sideways.
* Different sized dogs. Some breeds of dog are particularly difficult to find harnesses for due to their deep chest, large skull size, and the length of body etc. in proportion to the rest of their harness size. How do you make a universal harness to suit these dogs?
* Ease of putting on & taking off. It is not only the dogs that get stressed and irritable when some designs of harness are being put on or taken off. Handlers can become confused and frustrated at the complexity of some of the designs and can even have difficulty finding and attaching the lead to the harness due to the small size of the ring clip.
So what was the solution to all these problems? Well, I worked closely with a Finnish dog trainer and her team and came up with a revolutionary new design of harness that addressed all these problems.
The Happy Dog harness comes in three pieces. The top piece lies across the dog's back near the base of the neck. Each of the four clips has padding underneath them to prevent them rubbing against the dog's body. The two clips that form the V are where the front Y piece is attached, while the other two clips are for the girth.
The front Y piece - the V section clips either side of the dog's neck to the top piece, while the straight part goes between the dog's front legs and clips on to the girth piece underneath the dog. Note the padding running almost the whole length of the strap, with a small amount of adjustment at each end near the clip. This design prevents the need for a dog to put its head through a neck hole. Instead it is like putting a collar on your dog.
This dog is wearing a small top, small front and medium girth.
This dog is wearing a medium top, small front and medium girth.
The girth piece is padded to prevent the clip at the bottom (which the front Y piece is attached to) rubbing against the dog's chest, and this padding also prevents the edge of the strap rubbing or causing friction in the dog's armpits as it moves. The girth also has a small amount of adjustment at each end for the buckle to slide up or down to provide a snug and secure fit for the dog.
Because each piece can be bought individually the harness can be clipped together so that the correct size of top, front or girth piece is used, making it a tailor-made harness for almost any shape or size of dog. Should the dog grow or a piece need replacing, a replacement piece can be bought for very little outlay and this results in the Happy Dog harness becoming a "harness for life". - Sally Hopkins.

Obamas Give an iPod to the Queen!
People.com: So what do the new kids on the block give the woman who has everything?
On their maiden European tour as President and First Lady, Michelle and Barack Obama put a little of their signature youthful flair into what is usually stuffy old protocol: the exchange of gifts between foreign leaders.
For Queen Elizabeth? An inscribed iPod fully accessorized and loaded with the "ultimate Broadway" collection of 40 tunes, including "People" by Barbra Streisand, "Aquarius" by Ronald Dyson and songs from a wide range of shows from Gentlemen Prefer Blondes to Rent and La Cage aux Folles.
And just in case the Queen, 82, and her husband Prince Philip, 87, are more in the mood for a sing along á deux, the Obamas included a rare 1951 printing of a 243-page Rodgers and Hart Songbook - signed by Richard Rodgers - and including music and words to toe-tapping tunes from 22 Broadway shows and two films.
"It was a fun and very welcome gift," a palace spokesman tells PEOPLE about the iPod, which also contains photos of the Queen's state visit to the U.S. in 2007.
Returning the generosity, Her Majesty presented the Obamas with a silver-framed, signed photograph of herself and Prince Philip - the traditional gift often given to visiting heads of state.

A set of movies for the prime minister of England, after he gives the Obamas rare, historical gifts, and an ipod for the queen. I'm so embarrassed for our country. I get that the Obamas probably don't know any better, but where is the office of protocol at the White House? This is going to be a humiliating four years….

FOIA Request Release Pilot UFO Sightings Recordings 3/4
1 comments
Lickdacat August 7, 2010 10:00:29 PM CEST
Aug 4,1989 I witnessed 2UFO's larger than 747's. I had never heard reports of larger UFO's than the two I witnessed. It was a few miles from a small town in shouthern South Dakota, they had a convenient store so I stopped to ask if they had witnessed anything. The answered they heard nothing. These were cigar shaped being higher in the center, totally illuminated a solid yellowish glow no other lights. One followed the other at about 20-30MPH close to the ground, at the bottom of a bluff, suddenly they made a 90 degree turn at the end of the bluff and shot off, going up at about 35 degrees in less than 2 seconds they were totally out of sight. An incredible experience but no camera with me. I wish they had stopped to say hello. I stopped my truck, left the lights, exiting, hoping they would see me. I awoke my wife Cindy who caught the last 10 seconds of the sighting. I am not afraid of aliens, I would love to make contact with them.After 21 years, I can still replay it in my mind as if it just happened.

KALAMAZOO (WKZO) -- The Plains states were slammed by heavy storms over the weekend, and cleanup is just beginning from the huge tornadoes that went along with them. The Red Cross of West Michigan is ready to help, says spokesperson Kelly Hudson.
She tells us it has volunteers on standby to send to the affected areas, if they're needed.
Also, Hudson is reminding people that the Red Cross has a tornado app. Available for IPhone and Android, the free app is simply called "Red Cross Tornado." It offers up to the minute information on tornado activity locally, as well as a flash light feature, and it can also be used as a warning siren. Just search for "Red Cross Tornado."

I subscribed to this magazine for a year and was sadly disappointed. Most of the recipes I tried in here were either mediocre or inedible. There's an odd emphasis on using Dijon mustard as a flavouring. And some of the same recipes are repeated.
However, a handful of recipes by guest cooks are very good. There are also some fun articles on food culture, useful products and restaurants.
Conclusion: visually scintillating but lacking in substance.

I have subscribed to BBC Good Food Magazine since 1993 but have recently ended my subscription in 2008. Unfortunately for me the magazine has become too 'trendy' and has moved too far away from proper home cooking.

Rio Nutrition:The Road Less Traveled
Cattlemen spend a lot of time looking at their input costs, and rightly so. These costs can become so daunting, however, that the net result is obscured: the output performance. This is the message that Trevor Greenfield, owner of Rio Nutrition located near Redwood Falls, Minnesota, is heralding. "It's got to be about both — input costs and output performance — there needs to be a balance.
Agri-King – Leading the Way in Enzyme Technology
Enzyme technology is a hot topic in livestock nutrition these days, and Agri-King, Inc., based in Fulton, Ill., is leading the pack with their enzyme technology."Agri-King uses enzyme technology to target the performance needs of multiple livestock species paired with the feedstuffs being fed to optimize feed efficiency and profitability for the global agriculture market being served," says Dr. Dave Jones, Director of Nutrition at Agri-King.There is more nutrition in the feedstuffs we feed than livestock can extract by themselves. Given the current cost of feedstuffs and the slim margins in the livestock industry right now, everyone needs to be as efficient as possible at extracting all the possible nutrients out of the feeds we use in our livestock operations.
The 8 Most Common Genetic Mistakes
1. More Is Not Better
We can all do the math. +100 is more than +90 on yearling weight. On milk, +30 is more than +20 and that means more pounds to sell at weaning, right? However, these EPD's only measure output – not profit. Profit is output minus cost. Unfortunately more output usually comes from more inputs – i.e. more feed. Animals with higher EPD's for yearling and milk don't convert better, they just eat more per day. Bigger EPD, higher feed consumption cattle have bigger mature weights. In fact, the dam of the average +100 YW EPD bull weighs over 1650 pounds in good body condition.
Countless Reasons to Attend 2011 Cattle Industry Convention
Everywhere you turn there is another good reason to attend the "Rocky Mountain Round-Up," the 2011 Cattle Industry Convention and NCBA Trade Show in Denver, Colo., Feb 2-5.
On one front are the high caliber speakers lined up to address attendees at the event's general sessions. The Opening General Session Feb. 2 will feature Richard Picciotto, Fire Department of New York Chief and the highest ranking firefighter to survive the World Trade Center Collapse on Sept. 11, 2001. Chief Picciotto is the author of Last Man Down, which chronicles his harrowing experience that day. He will provide a gripping, first-person account of the catastrophe and emergency response.
Can Commercial Cattlemen Make AI Pay?
Suppose you gathered up exactly one hundred cow-calf producers representing a true cross-section of the commercial industry. And just suppose you asked all among the crowd who currently use artificial insemination in their operations to raise their hands. It's likely there would be no more than eight hands waving in the air. There would be even fewer if you asked how many producers were practicing AI on mature cows. The simple fact is that most commercial producers shy away from AI. Of those that do use AI, most use it only for breeding replacement heifers.

Thursday 18th, Friday 19th & Saturday 20th September 2014
The Bowes Museum, Barnard Castle, County Durham
Since the late 19th century the Period Room has been a consistent presence in the public museum, and yet over the past 25 years the Period Room has become a contentious museum object, leading many museums to question the legitimacy of the Period Room as an effective and appropriate method of display and interpretation.
As dislocated fragments, often remodelled to fit the spaces in the museum, the Period Room is, for some: a signifier for the inauthentic, an outmoded method of display and an example of unfashionable museum interpretation. Many museums retain their Period Room displays, but the recent changes in the perspectives on Period Rooms have also led a number of museums in the UK, Europe and the USA to reconsider their continued relevance as museum objects. This may include dismantling or de-accessioning the displays, and in some cases, repatriating the Period Rooms to their places of origin (if they still exist).
This conference, jointly organised by the University of Leeds and The Bowes Museum, and supported by the Paul Mellon Centre for Studies in British Art, considers the Period Room, and the historic interior, from a wide variety of perspectives in order to address some key questions about the history and practice of Period Room displays in Museums.
The conference has an interdisciplinary framework incorporating theoretical and practice-based perspectives. It brings together leading academics and museum professionals from a wide range of institutions in the UK, Europe and the USA, to discuss, debate and share perspectives on history and interpretation of Period Rooms and historic interiors in museums.
For conference delegates there is also a chance for wider participation in the debates through the mid-conference 'Sandpit'. We hope that the conference will have wide appeal and that it will have a significant impact on future museum practice and museum theory.
Conference highlights include:
Keynote talks from Thomas Michie, (Senior Curator, Decorative Art and Sculpture at Museum of Fine Arts, Boston) and Giles Waterfield, (Former Director, Dulwich Picture Gallery).
Closing conference address from Professor Helen Rees Leahy (Professor of Museology at the University of Manchester).
Conference speakers include museum professionals from:
The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; Minneapolis Institute of Art; New Orleans Museum of Art; National Museums, Scotland; Historic Royal Palaces; The Science Museum, London; The Jewish Museum, Vienna, and the Universalmuseum Joannneum, Graz.
Together with academics from:
University of Cambridge; University of Ghent; KTH Royal Institute, Stockholm; De Montfort University; University of
Durham; Open University; University of Potsdam; University of Southampton.
The conference fee includes:
Presentations on the innovative methods of display and interpretation of the English Interiors Galleries at The Bowes Museum, led by
senior curators.
An organised field trip to Auckland Castle.
Evening wine receptions at both The Bowes Museum and Auckland Castle.
View the full conference programme here.
View the booking form, with full information about prices here.
We expect high demand for conference tickets so we advise booking early.

Being an extremely active outdoor enthusiast since I was very young, I have been privileged to enjoy experiences with many types of outdoor activities and the associated gear. I enjoy: hiking, cycling mountain climbing, canyoneering, fly fishing, running, skiing and traveling. I am a Certified Lead Climbing Instructor - Boy Scouts of America and am presently completing ACA Canyon Leader Training. I've organized extended unsupported cycling trips; lead multiple groups of friends, youth groups and family on various excursions to Zion National Park, Moab, UT, Escalante UT, Wyoming, and Montana; Canyon Leader for multiple BSA group outings; organized numerous backpacking trips for adults and youth. Have competed and finished the Deseret News Marathon, Payson Marathon, and Heber Valley-1/2 Ironman Triathlon.
Travel experience includes extensive travel in North America, Japan, Australia, Europe, Central America and Canada.
With my varied experiences I have learned the significance of the right gear and the need for that gear to be of high quality. Sharing that experience and background with others, helping them find the right solution to their gear needs is extremely enjoyable - almost as enjoyable as doing the activity, almost.
I really like Gink. Does a great job keeping her afloat through multiple casts.
