RE: Our solution to the giant window in our shower. (Follow-Up #3)
posted by: xxxxOldTimeCarpenter on 05.26.2013 at 06:39 pm in Bathrooms Forum
Here's the tried and true solution we have used for years with nary a problem:
Replace the existing wood window with a look-alike vinyl replacement window. Get a good one with metal reinforcement, double glazed. Avoid those with exposed steel mechanisms, they will rust. You local window guy can help you choose the right window.
The glass will need to be tempered. Building codes do not allow untempered glass in or even hear a shower, so your current window is illegal -- and dangerous.
Replace the existing wood trim with Azek or equivalent cellular PVC trim.
Run tile up and over the existing sill to butt against the vinyl frame of the replacement window. OR, replace the existing sill with more PVC cellular Azek trim.
Caulk all seams with a good microbe-resistant bath and tile caulk.
In 20 years, we have never had a call back on one of these installations.
Beautiful bathroom, by the way. We are big fans of period-correct remodeling. In fact, it's all we do.

RE: Window in shower (Follow-Up #6)
posted by: OldTimeCarpenter1 on 09.27.2013 at 10:07 am in Bathrooms Forum
The traditional solution is to replace the window with glass block, but this can be tricky since often the opening needs to be either enlarged or reduced to accommodate the fixed dimensions of the block.
Our solution is to replace any wood or steel window with a good (emphasis on the "good" -- most vinyl windows are not so good) vinyl window. We match the look of the original windows, so the substitution is not obvious. Vinyl is not affected by moisture, and windows are designed so that any water that gets behind the sash will just drain outside.
It is important that the window opening be completely waterproofed before the window is installed. We use kerdi cloth, a product made for waterproofing showers as a water barrier. It works well. Other manufacturers now make a similar product. Using this method, the chance of water getting any place it should not be is very minimal. You will need to add a little wood to the bottom of your window opening to slope it slightly into the shower. This prevents water from just sitting on the window sill where it might cause problems.
Once the tile is installed, the juncture between the tile and window is caulked with a good polyurethane caulk for maximum flexibility at the joint. This should be inspected yearly and replaced every 3-5 years.
We have been doing this for 10 years, and have never had a problem.

RE: I think I love these pendants. Is there an affordable knock- (Follow-Up #28)
posted by: mtnrdredux on 04.03.2011 at 07:50 am in Kitchens Forum
Thank rmkitchen, I love the site too. When i first came across it, the prices seemed so reasonable that I was a little skeptical. But I have been quite happy with the quality, and shipping was not bad. And what I really like is that they have stuff I didn't see anywhere else. Much of it is from a company called Chehoma. I looked high and low for someone local who carries Chehoma but got nowhere. When I had to call Deco et cie with a question, I even got to use some of my high school French.
I did see the wire cage fixture, the whacky one with the birds, at ABC Carpet in NYC, for more than twice what I paid. I have that one in my 8yr old DD's room, and she is in love with it.
I bought and can vouch for:
I inquired in advance about which ones would work in the US. I think I only rewired the last one. It was maybe $30 to rewire.
Here are some of the other sources I have used and been happy with:
Il Fanale. Italian products imported by Country Gear of Southampton, NY. SImple lines but a bit unusual. I bought my kitchen and breakfast room pendants there and also fixtures for a bathroom. Prices quite reasonable.
Skinflint UK - If you like the industrial look, they have really cool things. I bought some old ship bulkhead lights, french darkroom lights, real cargo lights, etc. Again, pretty good prices, and he will rewire them for the US. Do note though, that some of these items are very heavy and you may need to reinforce your ceiling to hang them. You may also find that the amount of light they give once rewired is insufficient. The prices are good value for what you are buying, IMHO, but not as inexpensive as Deco et Cie or Il fanale, above.
The last one is the budget buster, but oooh they have nice stuff. I bought two of the Chisholm Hall for our entry hall. I also am having them copy a fixture for me.
PS CALI WENDY - Deco et cie has a sconce like those lights you liked that sold

We are almost done with our bathroom renovation. I'm too excited about it to wait for the finishing touches before I post it. Still to come is a mirror with 1" bevel to be installed in vanity, frameless glass to be installed in shower and baseboard heat cover being made. Thank you for all of your help during my many mini meltdowns.
We went from this...
There was one electrical outlet in the hole bathroom and it was in the medicine cabinet.
We closed off this door and moved the shower to that side.
So here is our new vanity...
We will put white wood blinds on the window and a cover for the heater

Do you think there's a fridge hidden behind those mirrored leaded glass doors, the dark stained ones? That's an amazing idea for panelling a fridge, if it is one. You can glimpse yourself everytime you head there for a snack. ;-)

RE: damask wallpaper stencil? (Follow-Up #2)
posted by: fauxchick56 on 03.21.2009 at 04:40 pm in Home Decorating Forum
budge1: I did a damask stencil in my DR, but only on one wall ( which I usually don't like), but it was very time consuming. I did a glazed strie first. I then used a darker color through the stencil. Next, I went back and moved the stencil about 1/8", using a lighter color to get the shadowed effect. The stencil was the Allover Fabric Damask Stencil from Stephanie Royal. http://www.royaldesignstudio.com/shop_stencils_detail.php?id=NzI= She has gorgeous stencils. Hope this helps.

Jockewing & Other Gray Lovers - Pics inc...
posted by: ttodd on 01.29.2009 at 10:38 am in Home Decorating Forum
Hope I spelled Jockewing correctly!
I was thumbing through a back issue of Cottage Living (March 2008) and came across the cottage home of Chaffee Braithwaite (daughter of designer Nancy Braithwaite). She used all grays and I thought that it gave some good gray recommendations as well as color descriptions. When I couldn't locate the article on-line I took some pics of the MBR & bath for you all as well as the color recs.
Enjoy - hope it helps someone in the eternal quest for the right gray!
The article stated that 'Nancy turns again and again to these shades all by Benjamin Moore', I got the sample colors from Myperfectcolor.com:
Revere Pewter 'It's a taupey gary that I use all of the time':
Wickham Gray 'This one has a bit of yellow':
Whitestone 'I like that it has touches of blue':
Cement Gray 'Warm tones of pink make this color really beautiful':
For those who want to know ~ the bedroom walls are Rubidoux and trim is Zephyr Hills by Pratt and Lambert:

RE: dlm2000 - Your chairs inspired me!!! My craigslist finds! :) (Follow-Up #11)
posted by: dlm2000 on 08.26.2008 at 12:59 pm in Home Decorating Forum
A million years ago I belonged to a decorating board at BHG. It was there, that I first 'met' Magnaverde and was introduced to his talents. Below is a picture of a sofa in his home, followed by his instructions on how he painted it. If it had come from almost any other source, I'd never have bothered saving it all these years. I haven't done it yet but I'm sure someday there will be an opportunity to try this technique on something. The mention of Picturesworth at the end is another old, old site. Kinda makes you rethink painted furniture, doesn't it?
Here's the process, as I originally described it on the AOL Decorating Board last year, and where the original post was unearthed from the AOL archives by the lovely and talented HOST HOME DECOR. She's the best.
Everyone freaked out when I told then the plan, but it worked. I was planning on painting my room dark green, so I decided to go with the red leather look. First, I painted the whole thing with bubblegum pink semigloss latex paint, using the widest foam brush I could find, and brushing it on in long strokes front-to-back and up + down. Think of that as the primer coat. I let it dry 2 days, and sanded it super lightly with fine-grade sandpaper to get rid of the burrs--there were a lot. When I couldn't feel any more sharp things, another coat of paint, spread thin. Dried and sanded again. Then spread--with my hands--a thin coat of raspberry red semi-gloss paint I had deadened a little with brown to make it a little less vivid. Because it was a deep color, there wasn't much white filler in the paint, and it was almost like a glaze or stain, instead of paint, which is just what I wanted anyway. I just smoothed it on, like suntan oil, and worked it into the pink paint. I let it build a little thicker at the back, on the inside of the arms and at the back edge of the loose cushion, so that the paler, thinner red took on an air of wear at the high points. I let it dry 2 days, then CAREFULLY sanded the few new sharp things, and touched up those spots with my fingers. I let it dry 2 days, then waxed the whole thing with regular paste wax. After it was dry, I polished with a soft cloth, then dusted with talcum, and vacuumed it all off. It was a little stiff the first few days, but now it not only looks like red leather, it feels like it.
This worked great on glazed chintz, and probably would work on any smooth fabric, except that some may have more burrs and therefore require more sanding, but I wouldn't try it on anything with a heavy texture. And no, the paint doesn't come off. And it's not stiff, either. Think about it--it's latex paint, and essentially, that's what's in those little bottles of fabric medium.
By the way if anyone finds this topic before he or she finds the picture that shows the finished results, it's over in the PicturesWorth album, probably at the bottom of the pile, in MAGNAVERDE'S SCRAPBOOK. Have fun.
For those who STILL don't think you can do it and who need a little pep talk before you start, go to magnaverde.com and look for the link that says 'consult magnaverde'--and I'll talk you through it. It will cost you a few dollars, but of course, my advice is priceless. And besides, I'm cheaper than a new sofa. You can talk to me and then go out for coffee. Good luck.

Door Vendors (Follow-Up #21)
posted by: shelayne on 07.19.2008 at 01:39 am in Kitchens Forum
Hi Caligirl,
I actually am thinking about going with a different company than the one I was leaning toward. The one I am looking at now is called AMZcabinetdoors.com. I got a quote (the day after I e-mailed them, so they are quick)for less than $700, including shipping! This is paint grade wood, but the better woods were not bad at all. This company is out of Texas. I even mixed it up a bit from what they offer on their website, and they gave me a quote for exactly what I stated. They say it takes approximately 9-10 days once they receive your order.
I am going to order a couple of doors from them, but so far I am liking what I am seeing. You really cannot beat $8.99 a square foot!(They also do NOT upcharge for drawer fronts as other companies tend to do.) I inquired about the Pattern B hinge boring, and that was also part of my quote.
The other company was refacedepot.com. I really liked the doors that I received, but they do not do the hinge drilling I need for the Blum hardware. I asked specifically, and he said it is all done by machine, and they only have the one pattern. Too bad. The nice thing about refacedepot, though, is that you see the cost of your doors immediately. You choose your door style, wood, edge profile, etc., enter the dimensions, and the total price is shown. I liked knowing what I was "getting into".
I noticed that some posters on Ikeafans have used MaplecraftUSA.com for their doors. They do the specific Pattern B hinge boring, but I do not know of their prices. One poster said their quote was $1000 less than Scherr's and averaged to about $17 per square foot.
HTH! Let me know how it goes! I am excited to see your kitchen! :^)

My husband doesn't pay attention enough to the real questions :)
I'm doing a ditto on what Dixielogs said. Holland Bowl Mill is where we buy our stuff. They carry a huge 28 oz tub.
Another option is what some of the other stoners were doing in another thread. They were mixing 50% mineral oil with 50% bee's wax. I haven't tried this yet but it may be a fun and cheaper alternative. You may be able to find the bee's wax in bulk on eBay and then buy the Mineral oil in bulk from STE Oil Company Inc. We order the Crystal Plus Oil 70FG. It's the food grade mineral oil in a thinner viscosity so it's easier to apply. I know they sell it by the gallon and so on. We buy it by the drum. Hope this helps!

I know how terrified you are right now, but you need to pull yourself together because there is much you can do to find Dashiell. She may be in the house or out of the house. I'll cover both bases.
2) Open every door, cabinet, and drawer in the house. Use flashlights to search the back of every cabinet, cupboard, and closet.
3) Cats can get through amazingly small holes, so check for access points to walls (larger outlet holes), ceilings (light fixture holes), and floors (heating or AC ducts).
4) Check under and inside furniture.
2) Search for her after dark with a flashlight. Cats are often easier to locate in the dark because a flashlight will illuminate their eyes.
3) In the morning, call all area vets, shelters, rescues, pounds, and your local law enforcement and file lost cat reports with everyone. Make up a flyer with Dashiell's photo (if possible), and distribute them to all of your neighbors, along with everyone else I just mentioned. Post flyers all over your neighborhood and at grocery stores, laundromats, convenience stores, etc. Take out a lost pet ad in your local newspaper.
4) Personally visit all area shelters, rescues, and pounds daily. DO NOT rely on telephone contacts with these facilities. You MUST visit IN PERSON regularly to check and make sure Dashiell hasn't been picked up or turned in.
5) Ask your neighbors if you can check their garages and garden sheds, or better yet, ask if they'd be willing to crack the doors open on their outbuildings so that Dashiell can get in or out, as the case may be.
6) Borrow, rent, or buy and live trap and set it outside your house after dark at night. Bait it with very warm, very smelly, fish-flavored canned cat food. If Dashiell is outside, she is probably very frightened and may not come to you even if she sees and hears you looking for her. A live trap is your best bet of capturing her. She'll be more likely to come out of hiding late at night after everyone has gone to bed and the neighborhood is quiet.
I'll post more suggestions as I think of them, but please don't give up hope. Dashiell isn't gone. She's just out of sight. I'd bet she's very nearby, either inside or outside. Keep a level head and keep looking.
Sending "come out, come out, wherever you are" vibes to Dashiell.

*I* would use the same moulding feature that is above the curtains (assuming it's wood-but even if not) to enclose the top of the bookcase. See how it's done in this pic. You can have a contemporary style home and still use moulding. I still say the prob is with the cases themselves. They look wimpy instead of being part of a cohesive flowing wall.

RE: Full granite backsplash and Electrical Outlets (Follow-Up #5)
posted by: cloud_swift on 01.06.2008 at 05:55 pm in Kitchens Forum
I don't agree with what jamesk said about it being 2cm. Usually, it will be the same thickness as your counter granite because it comes off the same slabs. 2 cm stone might be cheaper than 3 cm but if the counters are going to be 3 cm, it might be difficult to find a color match and impossible to find a grain match in a 2 cm slab.
Ours is 2 cm because that is what our counters are (and what most stone is around here).
gneegirl, our electrical boxes were installed as kevin described. Our granite fabricator cut the holes for the outlets and switches when he came to install the backsplash. The cutting was done in our back yard. I think our outlet boxes are also a kind that lets the box depth be adjusted with a couple of screws though that isn't essential.
We got Lutron outlets and switches in a color that went well with our granite (black but the Lutron "satin" black is less shiny than the ones at the hardware store - close to a matte). We splurged and got granite wall plates made from some of our left over granite by Columbia Gorge Stoneworks. One end of the backsplash is next to our back door and has a bank of six switches for various internal and external lights so the granite wall plates make a difference.
We are quite happy with the results:
Here is how it looked before the granite wall plates arrived:

RE: Almost Finished White Kitchen (Follow-Up #10)
posted by: abd1 on 12.02.2007 at 05:19 pm in Kitchens Forum
Thanks for the compliments. Its our first renovation project we've done and we pretty much GC'd it ourselves. We're very happy with it and proud of it as well. Here's a list of the materials:
Cabinets -- Ikea; Stat door. We went back and forth on these, but once we priced them out it was a no brainer. We saved thousands and we love them. The drawers fully extend and use blumotion glides that self close. They're a great bargain, and if we ever get tired of the style its a minimal investment to replace the doors and cover panels.
Counters -- Kashmir White granite. This was one of the things we were able to do because of the money we saved on the cabinets. Its hard to photograph the granite, but we love it because of the "flowiness" of the bluish-grey graining and how light it is. Originally we were going to go with black or something dark but we thought it looked too heavy and institutional.
Backsplash -- Susan Jablon Mosaics (www.susanjablonmosaics.com) beach subway glass. I think the color is blue grey sky or something like that. We love these and love Susan's stuff. We were going to make a blend, but we thought it may look too busy with the granite. We may use her tile again when we redo the bathrooms.
Sink -- Blanco. I really wanted to use, and bought, a Ticor but it didn't fit by about 1/8". We love the big single bowl.
Faucet -- Belle Forte. I know nothing about the brand but we wanted a single hole, single handle, pullout faucet and it was only about $200 online. So far so good. We also got a Waste King 3/4hp disposal, which is one of my favotite additions because it absolutely liquifies anything in 2-3 seconds.
Range -- Bluestar 30" RCS model. Again, because of going with the Ikea cabinets I was able to upgrade to this range and I absolutely love it. I love to cook and this range is awesome. I'll be putting up a more in depth write up soon in the appliances forum, but if you want a cooking machine go with a Bluestar.
Dishwasher -- Bosch shx46a05uc. Again, we went with Bosch after deciding on the Ikea cabinets and we love it so far. Very quiet, looks great, and cleans great. We now just scrape off the plates and put them in and they come out sparkling. It is a little smaller inside but the fold down tines really make loading it easy and flexible. The worst thing is the small silverware basket, but we were able to have 12 people here for Thanksgiving and it wasn't an issue when cleaning up.
We still have some more finishing details to do, and I'll post the final pics once its done.

posted by: pinegrove on 10.13.2007 at 08:12 pm in Home Decorating Forum
I found this paisley fabric and I am highly considering it for my little girl's nursery. There are coordinating fabrics to go with it as well, thuogh this will make the biggest impact. Originally I was going to do a pink and green room with a chair rail, but this fabric has me thinking that yellow may be a pretty background for this fabric, along with other pink, green and white accents.
The current paint colors I am looking at are C2 colors: Kiwi (green), Don Ceaser (pink), and Chelsea (yellow).
Has anyone ever seen or worked with this fabric before? It seems to be readily available.
If so, what paint colors did you use? If not, by looking at this, which way would you go in terms of wall color?
Much appreciation,
Here is a link that might be useful: Gypsy Paisley Fabric

Checklist For Granite Installation?
posted by: divastyle on 07.11.2007 at 09:45 am in Kitchens Forum
I went through some of the past posts and have attempted to put together a checklist for granite installation. Here's what I have :).
Check the seams for evenness and smoothness.
Any other things to add?

RE: Thermador Freedom Freezer--Can't Get Ice Working (Follow-Up #2)
posted by: jakvis on 10.13.2007 at 12:52 pm in Appliances Forum
You didn't say which models you have but I've installed a few of these.
1. you need to see the word ice in the control display.
2. your bucket needs to be locked in place and fully pushed back.
3. most Icemakers won't produce ice until the Freezer has been running several hours. I usually tell my customers that they wont see ice until 12+ hours have passed. The Freezer need to get cold enough for ice and the icemaker needs to cycle a couple times before water gets to it.
4. the Freedoms seem to make their fastest ice production when the freezer is set for -4şF. At least thats what their techline told me.
5. Is the water actually turned on?
6. Is the filter fully turned and locked into place? I have seen a couple units where the filter was not fully turned to lock and that shuts the water off.
I hope this helps

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — New York officials expect to spend about $2.3 million to demolish two buildings on the state's Harriman office in Albany.
The Office of General Services says there's no long-term viable use for the three-story buildings that were last occupied by civil service staff in 2005.
Commissioner RoAnn Destito says that will create a better option for possible redevelopment though there are no current plans.
The project is expected to start in January and finish in July, costing $1.4 million for demolition and $900,000 for removing asbestos.
The 167,000-square-foot building was built in 1956 and the 134,000-square-foot building was built in 1968.

Choosing a solar water heater in such a saturated market is extremely difficult. The introduction of the Eskom rebate has actually hurt the market because consumers are often swayed by it.
A lot of new companies don't offer very efficient SWH, so below we are highlighting an article offering the pros and cons of installing one and it also highlights the other option of a heat pump.
Be very careful when installing a SWH, as many companies are fly by night. Make sure you ask for references, and maybe even go and look. You are spending a lot of money, so make sure you get what you want.
The rolling blackouts of 2008 brought to the fore the electrical energy crisis that currently prevails in Southern Africa. This article focuses on domestic hot water generation…
Traditionally the hot water consumed in most residences is stored in a hot water cylinder with an electric resistance element which utilizes between 3kW and 4kW of electrical power, dependant on the size of the cylinder. Hot water heating accounts for between 40 percent and 60 percent of the electrical power consumed in the average household.
Currently two alternative systems to create savings are available to the domestic market.
Solar Water Heating (SWH) is typically installed on the roof of the building and utilises solar collectors or solar panels to produce hot water. The system collects radiant heat emitted from the sun and is used to directly heat the water.
Heat pumps are electrically-driven units which utilize the refrigeration process to convert the background air temperature into heat. This process will use 1 unit of energy to produce 4 units of heat energy.
There are many variables which impact the consumer's choice between a heat pump installation and a solar water heating system for domestic water heating.
The pros and cons of each system
- Solar water heating pros
- SWH produces hot water while the sun is shining for free.
- SWH systems are well established, however the consumer needs to be aware as to the varying quality of the radiation capture of various SWH systems.
- SWH installations are capable of providing high water temperatures.
- ESKOM subsidies SWH systems (terms and conditions apply).
- SWH installations can potentially give you a saving of up to 20 percent on your annual electricity bill.
- Solar water heating cons
- Large solar panels on the roof can be unappealing and unsuitable aesthetically for multistory group residential schemes.
- SWH installations are less efficient when cloudy. Your hot water requirements thus become dependent on the weather. SWH installations are fitted with a backup electric heating element to compensate for this problem, however this negates the energy saving potential.
- SWH panels are susceptible to airborne dirt build up from dust, pollution, rain and salt sea spray. These can greatly reduce the effectiveness of the solar radiation collection.
- Orientation of the SWH panels is imperative to maximize the solar radiation collection capabilities.
- The positioning of the SWH panels can also be greatly affected by tree and mountain shade.
- The solar collectors and panels are susceptible to damage from freezing, hail and possible over-pressurisation of the system.
- Depending on which system you choose; the installation may need the roof to be structurally reinforced to carry the additional pinpoint weight loading of both cylinder and panels.
- Consumers must be aware of the difference between a high and low pressure SWH system as this may affect the existing mixer taps within the residence.
- The capital cost outlay of a SWH system is greater than a comparable heat pump system.
- The anticipated investment recovery period of a SWH system is five to seven years.
- When purchasing a SWH installation the consumer should enquire as to what safety mechanisms are in place for both the cylinder and the solar panels as well as collectors.
- The effects of corrosion along the coastal regions will have an impact on the longevity of a SWH system.
- Effectiveness of SWH systems are dependent on where in the country they are installed (coastal areas receive significantly less annual radiation than the interior regions of the country).
- Heat pump pros
- Capital outlay costs are lower than those of a comparable SWH installation.
- The investment recovery period of three years is shorter than the payback period for a SWH system.
- Heat pumps are not dependent on sunshine and can operate day and night.
- A heat pump will only operate when required to replenish the storage of hot water in the cylinder.
- Heat pumps will provide a saving of upwards of 67 percent of hot water heating costs. This can amount to up to 47 percent of your annual electricity bill.
- Heat pumps are easy to install and can be retro-fitted to an existing hot water cylinder by a manufacturer certified installer.
- Heat pump systems are provided with a control panel which allows the consumer to easily set the water temperatures and the timer as well as check the system settings at all times.
- Heat pumps are mechanically sound and reliable and can run effectively for upwards of 15 years.
- Heat pumps can be installed internally within cupboard spaces and roof spaces thus avoiding any unsightly aesthetics.
- Eskom subsidises heat pump systems (terms and conditions apply).
- Heat pump cons
- Heat pumps are dependent on ambient air temperature and their dynamic efficiency is less when temperatures drop below freezing.
- The maximum water temperature is 60 degrees. Manufacturers recommend a setting of 55 degrees to reduce the potential risk of scalding.
- When installing a heat pump externally at coastal areas one should be aware of prevailing wind conditions potentially bringing salt into the pump.
- Heat pumps emit some noise and you should be considerate when choosing a position/location for the unit's installation.
- Heat pumps do need electrical power to operate, however during any power failure the heat pump can run of a standard generator producing 220v/50Hz.
- A heat pump (like a refrigerator) needs to be filled with ozone friendly refrigerant gases.

J.D. Power and Associates asked 19,000 potential car buyers what they want and what they're willing to pay for. Safety is apparently on the minds of many, with blind spot detection and backup assist taking the top two spots. But once consumers were told blind spot detectors would cost as much as $500, the device fell to No. 4 on the list, while a $300 backup assist jumped to No. 1. And a majority (73%) put in-dash navigation as No. 3 in popularity, but when told they'd have to pay an estimated $1,800 for it, it falls way down to No. 18. Hear that OEMs? Cheap nav is on a bunch of people's wish list.
With gas prices at record highs, 72% of the respondents said they were "probably interested" in a hybrid powertrain and 23% were "definitely interested." When told the system would add $5,000 to the cost of their ride, though, hybrids fall from fifth place to No. 8. Disappointingly, clean diesel technology comes in at the very bottom of the list with only 37% saying they would probably be interested.
We spoke with Mike Marshall, Director of Automotive Emerging Technology at JD Power, who said he was disappointed in the clean diesel interest but not really surprised. "We knew it wouldn't do that well," Marshall said. "One of the biggest things working against diesel is where people are coming from."
Hit the jump to read the rest of our interview and to view the full press release by J.D. Power and Associates.
UPDATE: We spoke to Mike Marshall, not Chris, and the survey queried 19,000 people, not 1,900. We've updated the post to reflect the corrections.
[Source: J.D. Power]
To change the general public's idea that diesels are smoke-belching, noisy powerplants, Marshall said it will take a couple of things. "One thing is increased product offerings,". Another is an effort from OEMs and tier 1 suppliers to educate the public on the positives of clean diesel.
So what's the next big thing in automotive technology? Marshall said he sees safety retaining a top spot in shoppers' minds. "Collision mitigation will be big in the next five years," he said. "That's the culmination of blind spot, backup, lane departure used to avoid or prepare for an accident." But what he doesn't see is a clear winner in the powertrain war. "There's to much technology out there, too much R&D" to pick a winner."

WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif.: 24 June 2008 -Hybrid-electric powertrain technology in vehicles garners
particularly high interest among consumers both before and after the average market price ($5,000) is revealed,
according to the J.D. Power and Associates 2008 U.S. Automotive Emerging Technologies StudySM released
The study is designed to measure consumer familiarity, interest and purchase intent for emerging automotive
technologies both before and after an estimated market value is revealed.
The study finds that before the market price is revealed, 72 percent of consumers say they are
"definitely/probably" interested in having hybrid-electric technology in their next new vehicle. This marks a
considerable increase from the 2005 study, when 58 percent of consumers reported they were
"definitely/probably" interested in the technology. Additionally, after the average price point of $5,000 is revealed,
consumer interest remains relatively high at 46 percent in 2008.
"High consumer interest in hybrid-electric powertrain technology may be reflective of not only rising gas prices
but also a heightened effort among consumers to be more environmentally conscious," said Mike Marshall,
director of automotive emerging technologies at J.D. Power and Associates. "Clean diesel technology, however,
garners relatively low interest in comparison. One explanation for this may derive from a lack of education with
the technology. Many consumers cannot differentiate between clean diesel and traditional diesel fuel-which in
the past had a negative connotation with unpleasant vehicle emissions. As consumers become more educated in
the benefits of clean diesel through increased product offers launching later this year, interest in the technology
may increase."
Prior to revealing the average market price, the study also finds that consumer interest is highest for blind spot
detection (76%); backup assist (74%); and navigation systems (73%) before the average market price is revealed.
After revealing the average market price, interest is highest in backup assist (68%); active cornering headlight
systems (65%); and wireless connectivity systems (53%).
"Wireless connectivity, in particular, makes a considerable jump in the rankings after the average price point of
$200 is revealed," said Marshall. "Consumer interest is likely heightened by the fact that more states may prohibit
the use of cell phones while driving. Wireless connectivity will potentially become a necessity rather than a
luxury as time goes on."
The study also finds the following key patterns:
• Among consumers who indicate that they are not interested in a rear-seat entertainment system, more than
30 percent indicate such because they do not transport passengers in their rear seats on a regular basis.
• Among consumers who say they are not interested in a collision mitigation system-which is an
automated safety system that monitors external conditions around the vehicle and warns the driver using
visual, physical and audible cues of a potential collision before automatically applying the braking system,
tightening seat belts and moving the driver's seat into the optimal crash position-one of four say they
either do not want to give up control of the vehicle, or that they are waiting for the technology to improve
before purchasing it.

The Sheer Reptile Print Top: Wear it 3 waysby eliza on Jul 21, 2011 • 11:51 •
Anything sheer is right up my alley these days, so The Sheer Reptile Print Top from *NYC Boutique has become a necessary staple in my eyes.
Even though today reached a scalding 95 degrees, I couldn't fight the urge to pair The Sheer Reptile Print Top from *NYC Boutique with The Clean Utility Pants by Free People. The Clean Utility Pant and the girly bows of The Dakota Sandal by DV by Dolce Vita make for a great mix of tough and feminine. Warning: Save this look for any day or night that stays below 90 degrees.
In keeping with the reptile theme, I've layered The Sheer Reptile Print Top with The Printed Strappy Cami in Black Snake Combo by Free People. I feel like I may be repeating myself, and by 'may' I mean 'without a doubt', but there's just something about hard and soft I can't get away from. The Puff Skirt by Lucca Couture, The Oriana Flat from *Sole Boutique and The Iconic Pink Heart Long Necklace by Betsey Johnson doll up this previously tough look.
While I usually try not to play favorites with my looks, I can't help but keep being drawn back to this combo. It's all about The El Carmen Shoe by Jeffery Campell. Being a girl that is much more comfortable with my feet firmly planted on the ground in a pair of flats, I was shocked by my desire to frolic in these tall guys all day! The polka dots mirrored from the platforms t0 The Structured Side Button Shorts by Lucca Couture are easy to instantly fall in love with.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
The thing is, this was already kinda in place for those in the know. I know 2 guilds who got new guild leaders by talking to a GM who, after checking if the guild leader was inactive for 30 days, passed it to the highest ranking active officer. That's why my guild has specific structure in place that's based on SOCIALIZATION, not progression. If our current guild leader's inactive, the last guild leader is able to take things up. If he's inactive, we have a "successor" rank in place. If they're inactive, we're in some trouble, but the officers are all voted on by the members, so it wouldn't cause a huge amount of drama.
Read officer quarters more. 90% of the issues can be solved with making an explicit guild structure and outlining intents. This is another case of that =)

Looks like their is trouble everywhere
elzima said she don't like nadine spending so much time with werner
nice song
she will text him everyday to say good morning?
and will text him to say good night? OK
call him to grab lunch
call him to go shopping with her
Elizma said she must have respect their in a relationship
she is spending more time with my boyfriend then me
Nadine claims their just very good friends
Girl that is not normal to spend so much time with a other girls guy not even as friends
- November 9, 2012 at 8:51 pm

Omg Werner was arrested today afther beating a camera man very badly(he is in the hospital with 6 broken ribs and a cracked skull)
when the media stoped werner in cape town to ask him if he is having an affair with nadine and cheating on elizma
Werner's father (Attorney) and 3 of his other Attorney bailed werner out with a 75 000 dollar fine
His friends said they never seen werner so angry in their whole life
Werner is the most kind persone they now but something in him just snaped
- November 10, 2012 at 7:59 pm
I heard it aswell
but what went on in their minds to ask him that question
Werner and Elizma's relations ship is on the edge as is
Werner is a 300 pound guy
he will hurt you very badly
- November 11, 2012 at 6:29 pm
He is not like the over
Mussel body builders but he is very well build
and big
I will not try to pick a fight with him no way
- November 11, 2012 at 8:42 pm
We went to south africa
we also seen werner's show
he is so sexy
at 2:36 till 4:31 you can see the city of cape town where he lives so beautiful
- November 12, 2012 at 7:44 pm
Hello shelly we went to South Africa aswell it was amazing
we also went to cape town wow amazing city
we did not see werner when we where there but heard he stays in cape town
here is a link of Cape Town a must visit
- November 13, 2012 at 7:09 pm
Werner arrived today in New-Zealand for his vortex party alone
Elizma is not there with him
Werner take Elizma with him always
I know their relationship is on the edge of breaking
but if he is there alone that can mean only one thing it is over
his friends Bobby ,janneman and reinier is also their but no Elizma
- November 13, 2012 at 7:30 pm
Werner's vortex party's is amazing looks at this at 4:45
Just to make the facts clear Werner never cheated on elizma
the reason they broke up is because as soon as werner is chating to a girl more then 3 min elizma is getting jealous and rude to the girl like a well you know
Werner said that he's are not allowed to speak to any female without elizma getting jealous
and he said he can't take it anymore,if she can't trust him it is just not going to work
- November 13, 2012 at 7:38 pm
and also
Elzima i agree werner is super sexy but that doesn't mean he will
jump in bed with every girl he chat to
that is way you lost him because you did not allow him to chat to girls
way didn't you just trust him
- November 14, 2012 at 7:17 pm
Omg seen werner today in auckland new zealand
can't belive he is here
I talk to him amazing guy sex,cool,funny always up for fun
I would do anything to be with him
Werner your single again
Marry me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is confirm Werner and Elizma is apart
Werner said she doesn't trust him and that is not the relationship he is looking for
Werner plz call me love you
- November 15, 2012 at 8:08 pm
Omg Nadine just joined werner today at his vortex party
oh man Elizma does not like her
I see a cat fight coming
Nadine and werner is just good friends for years now
Elizma said it is nadine fault that they split up
- November 16, 2012 at 6:19 am
I agree Elizma blame nadine for their break up
This is not true nadine said that she likes werner
he is the sweetest guy she knows
he loved elizma very much
She also said she broke Werner's hart he is taking the break up very hard
she can see it in him but he doesn't show it
she is at the Vortex party to support him
Werner said on a interview elizma didn't trust him, she had a problem
with every girl werner just talk to
Werner said if their is no trust how can their be love
But nadine said at a interview at vortex if elizma blame her that is fine
she is here to support werner and dont care what she has to say she hurt him very much
- November 16, 2012 at 6:51 am
I talk to werner once at his show
he is so full of life fun and joy
Elizma sucked the life out of him
Werner is a persone to go and have fun with his girlfriend and friends
like sky diving,camping,water sky etc
she did like any of these things
Werner your better off with out her
Enjoy life your young only once in your life
Werner said that he really loved elizma ,but it just got to much
- November 16, 2012 at 8:05 pm
Selena, I am your most biggest fan :') I love you SOOOO much! I would do anything for you, even die! You are my world <3 Please Come to Pakistan, possibly even Karachi,Pakistan. My life would change for ever if I get to meet you. I am totally ignored by my family & friends.

Nick Reply Werner is my friend and he and nadine has been friends for many years now it was cool of her to go and support her friend
Nick: Hope Werner is feeling better he broke up with elizma because he wasn't allowed to talk to other girls then elizma will get angry and he could not take it anymore
Nick: Werner loved elizma very much but like he said she did not trust him alone with a girl
Nick: All our friends knew werner will never cheat on elizma but looks like she did not and werner said if there is no trust how can there be love

Selena I know you probably get this A LOT! I mean you're amazing, beautiful, talented, down to earth, and you have some really great fans! Dang I don't know where to start, I mean I saw you for the first time in 2007 when I came across Wizards of Waverly Place on Disney by accident but boy you were and still are the most beautiful person I have ever seen! I was what 16, but I completely went head of heels for you and I can't tell you how often I turned on Disney to see if you were on. I felt like I didn't have a life for a moment watching Disney as a 16 year old boy, but I was head over heels for you. As the years went by you matured and the more you matured the more beautiful you became. I don't know how you do it, but man you're something special! My ultimate goal is to go to one of your concerts, (yes, I have not gone to one yet) but that's only because when I had the time your concerts were too far away and when you came into somewhere local I was either away for track or had finals going on. Really frustrated me! But I will hopefully one day make it to your concert and if the opportunity provides I would love to just meet you in person (you probably get that last one a lot). The things you do, your charities, the fans that you have visited, the tours you have gone on! You really are an amazing and a wonderful person. I don't know if I'm considered your #1 fan, but I can genuinely say that you have inspired many people and you have done many wonderful things. Everything you have, you earned and deserve it Selena. All the time you put into giving back with your busy schedule shows how kindhearted you are, you are truly an amazing role model for the younger children who adore and love you.
Dang I just wrote you an essay, I don't know if you will ever have the time to read this but if you ever do I wanted to tell you how wonderful you are. Please don't ever change, I love what I saw in 2007 and I love what I see today even more! You have the warmest smile that can turn anyone's bad day around.
I probably wrote you a love letter without even realizing it myself…
- December 14, 2012 at 2:43 am
I am your biggest fan ever

Trade deadline recap
Hi all. Here are some Cub related notes on today's trade deadline:
The Cubs themselves sent Ted Lilly and Ryan Theriot to the Dodgers for second baseman Blake DeWitt and two varying degrees of good prospects. Brett Wallach is the jem here and will immediately move into the Cubs' top 15 prospect lists. Good Bye to Ted and Ryan, both of whom have been key parts of the team over the last four years and deserve our respect and honor. I am very interested to see what DeWitt will be able to do for the Cubs.
The Cardinals traded away Ryan Ludwick and received Jake Westbrook in return. Westbrook is an ok pitcher, everyone keeps speculating that he will be fixed somehow by Dave Duncan and while agree that Westbrook is the type of pitcher who has had success working with Duncan, I also think that rookie John Jay is going to be out of his depth and this deal further hurts the Cardinals' offense. I actually think that overall, the Cardinals have not really improved themselves.
The Astros, of course, traded both Roy Oswalt and Lance Berkman away in an effort to turn those 2 out of 3's against the Cubs into sweeps.... I don't think they got back near enough and don't consider Bret Wallace to be anywhere near the offensive force that Berkman has been. I wonder if the Astros wouldn't have just better off keeping both players and trying to swap them in 2011. I don't think they did well.
The Reds did nothing. Kind of surprising. If I were a Red fan, I'd be angry. It may not matter. They could win it anyway. Oh and Jonny Gomes is still a huge Ahole. Just saying.
The Pirates flipped some of their roster for some potentially nice players and pretty much got more from trading Octavio Dotel, Javier Lopez, Bobby Crosby and Ryan Church than the Astros got for dealing Roy Oswalt and Lance Berkman. Wow.
Ex Cub Kerry Wood got traded to the Yankees. I wish him well and now I'm rooting for the Yankees to win the World Series. Wood is a Cub and will always be one. As such if he wins a title.... in a way we all do. Go Kerry!
Kyle Farnsworth was traded at the deadline to the Braves along with Rick Ankiel for a whole bevy of interesting prospects. Farnsworth doesn't have anywhere near the same level of respect in Chicago that my man Kerry has, thus I am not particularly concerned with this deal. I do find new Royals prospect Tim Collins particularly interesting.
Other than that, the rest of the Cubs are still here. No Fuku trade, no Zambrano trade, Nady will be passed through waivers I'm sure and could be dealt. I am a fan of Mike Fontenot bug with DeWitt on board, I don't really see what he does for the Cubs so I expect Fontenot be also be passed through waivers and possibly traded. Jeff Baker may still have value on the team.
Overall, a massively interesting day. I'm happy with the deal. I would have liked to have seen the Cubs do more but I don't believe I was ever one of those "Blow up the team" people so I won't complain. I will leave this up for two hours before posting today's gamecast.
(Edit) I forgot to mention Will Ohman traded back to the NL to play for the Marlins. He's still around and is pretty effective.
Anybody BUT Yankees
Our (Cardinals) offense is so sucky lately that I don't know if "hurts the Cardinals' offense" means much, unless we figure out a way to score negative runs. And Westbrook only has to be an improvement over Hawksworth for this to be an OK trade.
But just when I thought you and I had come to an understanding, you decide the frickin' YANKEES should win ANOTHER World Series?!? I don't care how much man-love you have for Kerry Wood, that's going too far! I would pull for ANYONE, including the Cubs, over the Yankees! I can only hope you were joking about that, but if so it's NOT funny...
LOL token
Yeah, I can't really root for the Yankees either but since they are going to win it anyway, may as well be happy that Kerry gets a ring, eh?
Oh and BTW, I'm not sure that Westbrook is much of an improvement over Hawksworth. Good Luck.
Say it ain't so, Kerry
OK, thank you for that clarification, I can live with that. But for myself, although I never did have anything against Wood -- now I am required to hate him under the "He's a damn Yankee" clause in my personal belief system. Nothing personal.
The word is that Westbrook's DNA profile shows him more susceptible to Dave Duncan's voodoo than Hawksworth was. (Local farmers outside St. Louis have been seen shipping fresh chicken entrails to Busch.)
I am skeptical that Westbrook can be more than 5th starter filler even with Duncan around but who knows, he doesn't seem that much worse than Joel Pineiro, so who knows.
BTW, the Yankees are like the Cardinals to me. I don't feel emotionally negative to them, per se. If I was to pick an AL team I like, it changes from year to year but this year, I'm rooting for Texas, so there's that. Still, I do love my Kerry Wood and really hope that if the Yankees win, he plays a part.
Trade & Yanks
Yeah, seriously, with Lohse coming back soon I don't know how much Westbrook will figure in. The general blogosphere response to the Cards' trade seems to be on the negative side.
The Yankees would have to skip the postseason for about 15-20 years for me to stop hating them -- judging by the fact that I'm still not quite over the Braves. I like new teams to get in, except for MY team, of course. By all rights I should really be a Cubs fan.
Keep hanging out
Keep hanging out on this blog and see if we can turn you away from the dark side! (said by someone who, once again, doesn't feel the unrequited hatred for the Cardinals that many Cub fans do)
